ROS 6, OpenSSL, and package updates?
No sooner do I read this evening that Fedora and others a re quickly working to get OpenSSL 1.0.1e out to fix the latest TLS bug that I log into my 516 to see what version it's running. Oh my, 1.0.1e....

For wheezy (which 6.1.6 falls into) it's fixed in 1.0.1e-2+deb7u5. I'm not sure which major release NV+ and 5.x systems run. Patching it may (for some older systems) come down to Netgear? Not sure.
Don't necessarily go by package version, though. Build is safer. But in general, check the CVE report from each distro to be absolutely sure.
