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

Tue Apr 8 16:11:32 UTC 2014

1.0.1 was not deployed until RHEL 6.5.  RedHat released patches
for RHEL last night, and CentOS followed suit a few minutes
later.

Just as a data point, I checked the servers I run and it's a good thing
I didn't reflexively update them first.
On Centos 6.0, the default openssl is 1.0.0 which supposedly doesn't
have the vulnerability, but the ones queued up for update do. I assume
that redhat will get the patched version soon but be careful!
