<< Hundreds of open source packages, including the Red Hat, Ubuntu, and 
Debian distributions of Linux, are susceptible to attacks that 
circumvent the most widely used technology to prevent eavesdropping on 
the Internet, thanks to an extremely critical vulnerability in a widely 
used cryptographic code library.

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 depend on the open source package >>
