Mustafa Al-Bassam's work assists a great deal with this taxonomy. He
ran PoC code against Alexa top 100, 1000, and 10000 sites beginning
about 18 hours after OpenSSL's first public announcement [1].

Specifically, his scans began circa: 1396956600 (top 100); 1396958400
(top 1000); and 1396972800 (top 10000). Did any major vendors deploy
upgrades prior to this?

Ubuntu's updates were released around 1396907296 [2], roughly 13 hours
before Mustafa's awesome scans.

Thanks

Thanks Seth (and Yves-Alexis) and kudos on the very fast reaction times.

Unfortunately for this exercise, your efficiency waters down the meaning
of "not vulnerable" in Mustafa's scans. His "vulnerable" category is
still of value, though. Maybe scans closer to time-zero will pop up.

FYI, there is confirmation of private key compromise (aside from
Codenomicon's):
