Seeking For A Permanent Fix: NodeJs-18.17.1: ERR_OSSL_EVP_UNSUPPORTED #17805

Hi,
Can anybody help on the permanent fix on the below issue?

Our application is throwing error 'ERR_OSSL_EVP_UNSUPPORTED' with below configuration. From the nodejs documentation we came to know that webpack 4.x is still trying to use an algorithm or key size which is no longer allowed by default with OpenSSL 3.0 and flag '--openssl-legacy-provider' can be used(to fix this error) as a temporary solution. Since its only a temporary solution and as a permanent fix, webpack module need to be upgrade.

Electron: 27.0.3
NodeJs: 18.17.1
webpack: 4.29.5

Can anybody share the webpack version which has the fix for this issue, if its already fixed. If not then is there a plan to fix this issue on webpack module and when the fix will be released?

Also in one of the comment, we read that it will be fixed with "webpack 6" which is not yet released, any timelines for its release?
