A security vulnerability has been discovered that could potentially affect millions of Internet users like you.

The bug is in software that is used by millions of servers. If exploited, people visiting websites that are vulnerable could be exposed to spying and data theft. Attacks leave no trace so it’s not clear how often attacks have taken place, on which websites or how widespread they may have been.

Known as Heartbleed, the bug exploits a vulnerability in OpenSSL software which is designed to protect data traffic as it travels to and from servers. Open SSL is widely used across the Internet hence the potential for large scale damage.
 
Should we be worried re our accounts should we be changing our pin numbers?
