  script_tag(name:"insight", value:"Luciano Bello discovered that the random number generator in
  Debian's openssl package is predictable. This is caused by an incorrect Debian-specific change to
  the openssl package (CVE-2008-0166). As a result, cryptographic key material may be guessable.

  This is a Debian-specific vulnerability which does not affect other operating systems which are
  not based on Debian.  However, other systems can be indirectly affected if weak keys are imported
  into them.

  It is strongly recommended that all cryptographic key material which has been generated by OpenSSL
  versions starting with 0.9.8c-1 on Debian systems is recreated from scratch. Furthermore, all DSA
  keys ever used on affected Debian systems for signing or authentication purposes should be
  considered compromised. The Digital Signature Algorithm relies on a secret random value used
  during signature generation.

  The first vulnerable version, 0.9.8c-1, was uploaded to the unstable distribution on 2006-09-17,
  and has since propagated to the testing and current stable (etch) distributions.  The old stable
  distribution (sarge) is not affected.

  Affected keys include SSH keys, OpenVPN keys, DNSSEC keys, and key material for use in X.509
  certificates and session keys used in SSL/TLS connections. Keys generated with GnuPG or GNUTLS are
  not affected, though.");
