Hi,

Re this:

A vulnerability has been discovered in the TLS server extension parsing of
OpenSSL. Remote attackers may be able to trigger a race condition in
multithreaded applications that use OpenSSL resulting in arbitrary code
execution. To be susceptible, the application must use OpenSSL's internal
caching mechanism. Apache and Stunnel are mentioned as two popular OpenSSL
applications that are not affected by this vulnerability. We encourage
customers to obtain updates from their respective distributions.

Thanks,
