Ten years ago, the cybersecurity world was shaken by the discovery of the Heartbleed Bug, a critical vulnerability in the OpenSSL encryption library. The bug, which was introduced in 2012 and discovered in 2014, allowed attackers to access sensitive information, such as passwords and encryption keys, without leaving a trace. In this blog post, we'll explore the history of the Heartbleed Bug, its impact, and the lessons we've learned in the decade since its discovery.

CVE-2014-0160 is the official reference to this bug. CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) is the Standard for Information Security Vulnerability Names maintained by MITRE. Due to co-incident discovery a duplicate CVE, CVE-2014-0346, which was assigned to us, should not be used, since others independently went public with the CVE-2014-0160 identifier.
