This change downgrades OpenSSL 3.6.0 to 3.5.4. To avoid potential zero-day issues in a new major version of OpenSSL, 3.6.0, it is safer to stick with 3.5.4. While 3.6.0 has some nice new features, such as improved SHA512 hashing, it also introduces new features that could contain bugs. In contrast, 3.5.4 has seen quite a few bug fixes over 3.5.0 and has been used in the wild for a while now.
