Comment on OpenSSL Security Advisory: TLS heartbeat read overrun

Comments

An Ubuntu update would be nice right about now. Outside of disabling everything that uses openssl or compiling a new one manually, there's not much I can do to secure my servers at this moment. Meanwhile, I'm guessing a lot of not so nice people are racing to scan IP ranges for this bug.

Debian already updated: http://www.debian.org/security/2014/dsa-2896

Ubuntu should follow really soon, if not already.

Edit: Ubuntu updated: http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-2165-1/

Looks like this being made publicly listed, they did get this CVE out now (I last checked that link around noon PST) http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-security/cve/2014/CVE-20...

FreeBSD updated (run the update about 40 minutes ago).
