Hi!! I managed to upgrade SSL in Nuke 10.5v7 in a hacky way, it is working fine so far.
I saw in this post that using a gateway could be a solution, but for me that required work from the IT department and changes in the network, so I prefer another solution.
I saw that Foundry’s official solution to upgrade SSL in Flix, was just to overwrite ssl.py and _ssl.so library.
So I try the same in Nuke I copied SSL 1.0.2 from my systems installed Python 2.7.5 to nukes 2.7.3 and it actually make the trick it is working fine so far.
sudo cp '/usr/lib64/python2.7/ssl.py' '/usr/local/Nuke10.5v7/lib/python2.7/ssl.py'
sudo cp '/usr/lib64/python2.7/lib-dynload/_ssl.so' '/usr/local/Nuke10.5v7/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload/_ssl.so
