CVE-2012-4929
ZLIB compression is now disabled by default. If you need
to re-enable it for some reason, you can set the environment
variable OPENSSL_NO_DEFAULT_ZLIB.
It's important that you upgrade the libssl0.9.8 package and not
just the openssl package.
All applications linked to openssl need to be restarted. You can
use the tool checkrestart from the package debian-goodies to
detect affected programs or reboot your system.
