HeartBleed

Heartbleed (español: hemorragia de corazón) es un agujero de seguridad (bug) de software en la biblioteca de código abierto OpenSSL, solo vulnerable en su versión 1.0.1f, que permite a un atacante leer la memoria de un servidor o un cliente, permitiéndole por ejemplo, conseguir las claves privadas SSL de un servidor.

Heartbleed is a security bug in the OpenSSL cryptography library that gained widespread attention in April 2014. OpenSSL is a widely used implementation of the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. Heartbleed may be exploited whether the party using a vulnerable OpenSSL instance for TLS is a server or a client. Heartbleed results from improper input validation (due to a missing bounds check) in the implementation of the TLS heartbeat extension, the heartbeat being the basis for the bug's name. The vulnerability is classified as a buffer over-read, a situation where software allows more data to be read than should be allowed.
