RE: Openssl security breach detected - oracle concerned?

You would have to verify what version of SSL.

http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/55/29423.html yesterday posted a notice that the "experiment" was with an older version of SSL.

It could be that iAS and other Oracle products are still using that version, I know they were way behind in the Apache release they bundled in iAS 1.0.2.2

I would be curious to learn what you find out.

hello to everybody

recently a security breach was detected with OpenSSL - the password of a user could be decoded within hours, the bank account was robbed - but just for testing purposes -

has anyone ever heard about a similar problem regarding to oracle ssl. we use it and i couldn't find a patch for this particular problem if there is any with oracle's ssl.

kind regards

Apologies for any typing mistakes I failed to notice.
