More details on the Debian openssl patch farrago. Important point: Every sysadmin needs to scan their boxes (not just Debian users) to find any compromisable .authorized_keys
Preview clip of the US version of Life on Mars. Getting past the generic music and cheesy voiceover, this looks like it has the potential to get the right mix between the original’s storyline and 70s Americana. Looking forward to seeing more.

The Debian SSL fubar farrago - some light perspective
If you have a Debian or Ubuntu box and used it to generate an SSH key in the last couple of years, due to a rather heinous bug, there’s a high chance you have one of roughly 260,000 keys.
To put this in perspective, if your account was protected by a 4 lower-case-character password, it would be harder to brute-force access (264 = 456,976).
For the sake of the internet, follow the instructions to update the keys on your servers forthwith.
