Title: OpenSSL

A very serious security issue has been exposed, so if you are running this on a server, you need to check the version and update ASAP if it is older than latest version released on Monday 7th April.

Unless you're running 1.0.0 or earlier, in which case you're unaffected - it only affects 1.0.1 prior to 1.0.1g.

Can't go on version numbers I'm afraid, as each distro, esp Enterprise distros, will backport the fix. Hence, all the OOF servers are running 1.0.1e-blah-blah
