Hi,

As I understand it OpenSSL v 0.9.7a and OpenSSH v 3.6.1p2 used in FC2 have 
had vulnerabilities for quite some time, as per the following advisories:

(http://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20040317.txt)
(http://www.mandrakesoft.com/security/advisories?name=MDKSA-2003:090)

My question is: are these vulnerabilities serious enough so that said 
libraries need to be updated, which leads to next question, as to where to 
find these updates (as there are presently none)  on the FC2 updates mirror 
sites, in order to perform updates via "yum" for example?

TIA, and please forgive my ignorance if thats the case :)

Joseph
