Hello,

I am posting this here as it should receive wide exposure.

http://lists.debian.org/debian-security-announce/2008/msg00152.html

The bottom line(s):
 1. If you run a Debian or derivative (yes, Ubuntu!) version
    that is based on etch or later,
and
 2a. If you generated an SSH/SSL key on this system 
 or
 2b. You created a signature using a openssl DSA key on this
     system

Then it is likely that your key is weak/compromised. Please change
it after installing a more recent "openssl".

This does *not* apply to GPG/PGP keys.

Regards,

Kapil.
