Is Profound UI Affected by the Heartbleed Bug?
Posted: Thu Apr 10, 2014 1:22 pm
No, it is NOT affected by this.
The Heartbleed bug is a problem that affects some versions of the open source OpenSSL encryption package that is used to implement SSL connections. Profound UI runs under the IBM HTTP Server for i, which does NOT use OpenSSL at all. SSL is implemented by IBM-provided encryption code. That being the case, the Heartbleed bug is not a concern for Profound UI.
