Comment Re:Flaw is in OpenSSL implementation, not protocol (Score 2, Interesting) 234

I hope people take your advice and actually read the OpenSSL Advisory, which does a fairly good job of explaining the problem and the fix. This is an implementation "flaw" only in the sense that the implementation failed to protect against a previously unknown timing attack. OpenSSL is almost certainly not the only implementation to get this wrong. Wonder how long it will be before someone finds this flaw in MS's CryptoAPI libraries?
