    Did Heartbleed touch SE sites and games?

    Hi guys, not really a technical person so forgive me if this is something I could have easily found out myself by looking at certificates or something, but does anyone know if SE uses OpenSSL?

    And if so, if they were susceptible to the Heartbleed bug (that apparently everyone else has known about for a week but that I only just found out about today...)?

    Have our accounts been compromised?

    Any info would be appreciated.

    For the record, I use the OTP, but from my understanding that doesn't mean a lot for this particular vulnerability. I think I vaguely remember SSL or Open SSL being mentioned in relation to the launcher at one point too which has me worried.

    Considering the certificates haven't been regenerated and the tests show negative, SE seems to have never been vulnerable. But this is just a guess.

    OTP still protects you, if your details were received, but they could as well get customer support credentials and modify account information.
