That URL returns a 404 error, but it appears that the correct URL is
http://online.securityfocus.com/bid/5363 the same as above but without
the trailing slash.

It should also be noted that this vulnerability is reasonably old (July)
the updated part is that there is now a worm out in the wild that can
exploit the previous hole.  There are already two versions of OpenSSL
that are out that are not vulnerable to the exploit.
