As I asked on http://taint.org/2008/05/13/153959a.html --
here’s the $64000 question: if SSL Certificate Signing Requests were
generated using a vulnerable version of openssl, in order to purchase
third-party CA certs, are they in turn vulnerable? I’d assume the answer
is yes, which makes things even messier :(
This is the case, right?
