The document discusses the Heartbleed vulnerability in OpenSSL. It describes how in 2011, Robin Seggelmann implemented the Heartbeat Extension for OpenSSL and his code was reviewed by Stephen N. Henson. However, Henson failed to notice a bug in the implementation and introduced flawed code into OpenSSL in December 2011. This vulnerable code was included in OpenSSL version 1.0.1 released in March 2012 and was enabled by default, exposing many systems to the Heartbleed vulnerability.
