April 14, 2014 Roger Lacroix

None of Capitalware’s Products directly use OpenSSL, so the Heartbleed issue does not directly affect our products. If you use MQAUSX on Linux and have configured MQAUSX to target an LDAP server using “LDAP over SSL”, then you will want to check what OpenSSL package is installed on your Linux server. i.e. The affected versions […]
