Many people here may use OpenSSL so I figured I would share this info.

The plus side to all of this stuff is that a lot of compromised accounts will get their passwords reset by the owners as the world's population goes into mass hysteria.
By that I mean accounts where the owner doesn't know they've been compromised (prior to Heartbleed).

This is a good thing for the internet ;)

Maybe we should have annual random global security vulnerabilities exposed...
