: openssl bug patching

System admins worldwide are busy today.
Every Linux server should be checked against the openSSL bug.

Ubuntu 10+11 dont seem to be vulnerable.
Ubuntu 12+13 seem to be vulnerable.
I have not confirmed this yet.

I run other Linux distros of course and those must be checked as well.

Apparently from online sources, you do not need 1.01g to be secure.
That statement seems to be correct.
If you have an older openssl that is not vulnerable.
I have a numbner of Ubuntu 10+11 servers that do not have the bug.
I would prefer to check against the verified list of openssl versions 
that do have the bug.
