A security vulnerability has been discovered in OpenSSL in some 4.1 FlashCopy Manager components
CVE-ID:CVE-2014-0160
**DESCRIPTION:**OpenSSL could allow a remote attacker to obtain sensitive information, caused by an error in the TLS/DTLS heartbeat functionality. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to expose 64k of private memory and retrieve secret keys. An attacker can repeatedly expose additional 64k chunks of memory. This vulnerability can be remotely exploited, authentication is not required.

A subset of FlashCopy Manager 4.1 components are affected when used with a NetApp or IBM N-series storage device. The components are:
UNIX and LINUX
VMware:
These FCM 4.1 components are vulnerable only when they initiate and maintain a communication session with a NetApp or IBM N series storage device. The vulnerability does not exist during communication sessions with other types of storage devices or when an external program attempts to initiate an OpenSSL session with FCM.
The following are NOT affected and do NOT require an update:
