LibreSSL

The latest compromise found in OpenSSL is not a backdoor by itself, but it provides a great DIY Kit to subvert the system and it is conveniently built right into the Windows software API: http://www.openbsd.org/papers/bsdcan14-libressl/mgp00025.html

OpenSSL should not be lightly discarded, it should be thrown, with great force and the programmers who are responsible for subverting it cannot be trusted ever again.

OpenBSD needs your support to reconstruct this crucial piece of security software the right way - please donate: http://www.openbsdfoundation.org/donations.html
