[H]ardOCP:

We talk a lot about Windows and Apple vulnerabilities simply because they tend to be in the forefront of the news and the vast majority of readers are using those platforms. Now Debian and Ubuntu users can join in on the hand-wringing fun with this recent announcement about a “serious and scary” vulnerability in Debian and Ubuntu systems that can be exploited.



HD Moore, best known as the exploit researcher who created the Metasploit penetration testing framework, called the vulnerability in Debian and Ubuntu systems "ugly" and said it will be a big job for administrators to find every flawed key, then reissue them.
