OpenSSL Heartbleed Vulnerability
Posted by Anthony N on 08 April 2014 04:35 PM |
The Heartbleed Bug is a serious vulnerability in the popular OpenSSL cryptographic software library. This weakness allows stealing the information protected, under normal conditions, by the SSL/TLS encryption used to secure the Internet. SSL/TLS provides communication security and privacy over the Internet for applications such as web, email, instant messaging (IM) and some virtual private networks (VPNs). It is highly recommended that you upgrade OpenSSL on all of your servers to one of the patched versions and also ensure that any other software using OpenSSL is patched as well. It would also be a good idea to revoke any private keys as this vulnerability has apparently been known for a couple years now.
The patch has been applied to ALL our per server management clients already | |
