When I go to run:

root@vps [~]# yum update -y openssl

I get:

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * base: mirror.beyondhosting.net
 * extras: centos.mirror.nac.net
 * updates: centos.netnitco.net
Setting up Update Process
No Packages marked for Update

And if I run:

root@vps [~]# yum info openssl

I get this, which is not the latest version of OpenSSL and is vulnerable to heartbleed:

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
 * base: mirror.beyondhosting.net
 * extras: centos.mirror.nac.net
 * updates: centos.netnitco.net

Or is this version of 1.0.1e not vulnerable to heartbleed for some reason?

16.el6_5.7 is the patched version with the fix (see the package info on the Scientific Linux site).
