Last night an important security vulnerability was made public with corresponding security updates. It risks exposing private keys when vulnerable.

OpenSSL was vulnerable starting from their OpenSSL 1.0.1 release on 14th of March 2012 till OpenSSL 1.0.1g released on 7th of April 2014. Two security teams independently reported this issue and it’s safe to assume others did as well. On top of that it’s not possible to trace whether you were successfully exploited.
