Does your security vendor understand the difference between the mod_ssl
that is included with Apache 2.x and the external one that was used with
Apache 1.3?  The latter is at 2.8.31 but is *only* for obsolete Apache 1.x.

The mod_ssl that comes with Apache 2 always has the same version as the
Apache it comes with.  Since 2.2.22 is the latest in the Apache 2.2 series,
your vendor is claiming that Apache 2.2.22 has an unpatched vulnerability.
 (The absolute latest one in the 2.x series is 2.4.2, which of course ships
with a mod_ssl that is also 2.4.2.)

Based on the evidence so far, I suggest your security vendor is confused.
