    OpenSSL Heartbleed Update

    Hey all,

    since there is a new bug in OpenSSL, every linux admin should update their root.

    For Debian Wheezy, this did the job:

    Code:
    apt-get update
    apt-get install openssl
    To check the update, just run:

    Code:
    # apt-cache policy openssl
    openssl:
      Installed: 1.0.1e-2+deb7u5
      Candidate: 1.0.1e-2+deb7u5
      Version table:
     *** 1.0.1e-2+deb7u5 0
            500 http://mirror.hetzner.de/debian/security/ wheezy/updates/main amd64 Packages
            500 http://security.debian.org/ wheezy/updates/main amd64 Packages
            100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
         1.0.1e-2+deb7u4 0
            500 http://mirror.hetzner.de/debian/packages/ wheezy/main amd64 Packages
            500 http://cdn.debian.net/debian/ wheezy/main amd64 Packages
    The "e-2" is the fixed version. A server restart reloads the buggy library for each process.

    Stay secure!
