There have been a couple of security problems with OpenSSL recently (timing
based attack and the Klima-Pokorny-Rosa attack, see http://www.openssl.org/
for more information). I was wondering if these issues affect OpenSSH, and
how serious is this for OpenSSH. Basically I want to know how soon I need
to rebuild OpenSSH with a new OpenSSL library for all the architectures we
build it for.

Thanks,
