OpenSSL vuln

[der.hans]

moin moin,

Based on the following page:

OpenSSL heartbeat is enabled even if you're not using it unless you
disabled it at compile time.

The vulnerability has been in place for two years ( version 1.0.1 up until
1.0.1g that was just released ).

It can be exploited to reveal your private key without leaving a trace.

IDS can probably be configured to detect the attack.
