## Possible weak keys generated by tinc on Debian (and derivates) due to a security bug in Debian's OpenSSL packages
For those who run tinc on Debian or Debian-based distributions like
Ubuntu and Knoppix, be advised that the following security issue
affects tinc as well:
-[http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1571](http://www.debian.org/security/2008/dsa-1571)
