Client certificates are the case where you would leak private keys, but yes, passwords, authorization cookies etc. could leak anyway. However, with an OpenSSL based client like curl or wget in typical usage, you wouldn't have secrets for other sites in memory while connecting to a malicious server, so in that case I think the only leakage would be if you gave the client secrets anticipating Apr 09, 2014 · [The Heartbleed bug] compromises the secret keys used to identify the service providers and to encrypt the traffic, the names and passwords of the users and the actual content Your IT department may be scrambling to replace any and all certificates that were potentially compromised by the Heartbleed bug. Here are 3 things you should know when reissuing certificates: 1. All Globalsign Certificates are reissued for free with no charge for rekeying. Apr 11, 2014 · Justin Morgan: "What makes Heartbleed unique is that it is a very small bug that has gigantic ramifications. Previous attacks on SSL/TLS have often been cryptographic in nature, meaning some Apr 09, 2014 · The Heartbleed bug is a software bug in one of the fundamental tools called OpenSSL, used by more than two-thirds of the Internet to allow secure transactions. Calling the bug fix a "resolution" ignores the true impact of the Heartbleed bug. That issue will not be "resolved" until all affected sites are patched, certificates are revoked, passwords are changed, etc. By talking about the bug fix and calling it a "resolution", it makes it sound to the reader like the bug fix is all that's needed.
The vulnerability is also made possible due to OpenSSL’s silly use of a malloc() cache. By wrapping away libc functions and not actually freeing memory, the exploitation countermeasures in libc are never given the chance to kick in and render the bug useless. Additional details on these ways to fix Heartbleed are available here and here.
