python 3.7 OPENSSL_sk_num error

[commutecat]

Attempt to import yara module under Python 3.7.2. will show import error

ImportError: /<virtual_environment_path> /lib/python3.7/site-packages/yara.cpython-37m-x86_64-linux-gnu.so: undefined symbol: OPENSSL_sk_num

openssl version affected : 1.1.0g

After some research, some suggest that affected module are not pointing to the correct openssl library contains OPENSSL_sk_num symbol.

To work around this problem , I downgrade my python working environment from 3.7 to 3.6.

mportError: dlopen(/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/yara.so, 2): Symbol not found: _OPENSSL_sk_free
