Heartbleed is a bug that invades websites and steals information and is currently pervasive. The site(s) explaining it are full of technical jargon that I cannot follow, so I urge people to Google this for themselves.

One site offered a link to learn whether one’s oft-used sites are vulnerable. I learned Amazon and Facebook are not affected. But MyBloggers is vulnerable. The following copied paragraphs might give a techie insights into this, so I am pasting them in.

How to stop the leak?

As long as the vulnerable version of OpenSSL is in use it can be abused. Fixed OpenSSL has been released and now it has to be deployed. Operating system vendors and distribution, appliance vendors, independent software vendors have to adopt the fix and notify their users. Service providers and users have to install the fix as it becomes available for the operating systems, networked appliances and software they use.

How revocation and reissuing of certificates works in practice?

If you are a service provider you have signed your certificates with a Certificate Authority (CA). You need to check your CA how compromised keys can be revoked and new certificate reissued for the new keys. Some CAs do this for free, some may take a fee.

I am sending Eddie a separate message with this information.
