Critical crypto bug leaves Linux, hundreds of apps open to eavesdropping - "The bug in the GnuTLS library makes
it trivial for attackers to bypass secure sockets layer (SSL) and
Transport Layer Security (TLS) protections available on websites that

rely on GnuTLS to implement crucial SSL and TLS operations, but it
wouldn't be surprising if the actual number is much higher. Web
applications, e-mail programs, and other code that use the library are
vulnerable to exploits that allow attackers monitoring connections to
silently decode encrypted traffic passing between end users and servers." #linux #schadenfreude
