Re: Serious bug in ubiquitous OpenSSL library: "Heartbleed"

[Maxim Khitrov <max () mxcrypt com>]

It's bad. I decided to test my servers after updating them. Took me
about 3 hours to write a working implementation of this attack without
any prior knowledge of TLS internals. It's easy to do, pretty much
impossible to detect, and it's going to spread quickly. Shut down your
https sites and any other TLS services until you've updated OpenSSL,
then think about changing your private keys.
