I have now seen a worm for the OpenSSL problems I reported a few weeks
back in the wild. Anyone who has not patched/upgraded to 0.9.6e+ should
be _seriously worried_.

It appears to be exclusively targeted at Linux systems, but I wouldn't
count on variants for other systems not existing.

Cheers,

Ben.
