Impact of the Debian OpenSSL vulnerability

CentOS looks at the impact of the Debian SSL vulnerability for CentOS
users. "This vulnerability can affect CentOS machines through the
use of keys that were generated with the OpenSSL package from Debian. For

CentOS server, and this user generated the key pair with a vulnerable
OpenSSL library, the server is at heavy risk because the key can be
reproduced easily."
