Yes, upgrade your OpenSSL to the latest stable version, and if 1.0.1g |
| 11 |
isn't stable on your arch (it should be unless it's a weird one), unset |
| 12 |
USE=tls-heartbeat like Ralf said. |

But that's not your big problem. If you operate any servers, the private |
| 15 |
keys to any OpenSSL-backed service may have been compromised. So the old |
| 16 |
certificates all need to be revoked and new ones issued. That includes |
| 17 |
Apache, OpenVPN, Postfix, Dovecot -- all the big ones. Even if you don't |
| 18 |
run servers, other people do, and they were probably vulnerable. So any |
| 19 |
passwords you've used on the web in the past two years should be changed. |
