Otherwise - i don't think so (they don't say if it exploits any vulnerabilities other than user's stupidity/ignorance). Basically, if you run binaries from an unsafe source, you get what you deserve. Man, I try to be a honnest individual, I hope I don't deserve something like that ! ..., Is there such a thing has a 100% safe source for binaries ?

Re: mod_ssl pass phrase related question
Would'nt it be related to having a self-signed certificate instead of the one you built ?

Once installed mod_ssl I've created a sample ssl certification for my local workstation, https works quite well and everything is ok, well nearly everything :) When I restart the apache by hand or it comes up through Debian's init.d script it requires that I provide the daemon with the pass phrase because some of my private key files are encripted. How can I avoid this ? I mean let me assume I need to restart my box from a remote connection, when the init.d script is going to start apache I must be fisically there to provide the daemon with my pass phrase, that's not always possible. Should I keep my key files unencrypted, or is there another solution which preserves security ? Thanks for any help !
