[tor-relays] If you're using OpenSSL 1.0.1, upgrade to 1.0.1c

[Nick Mathewson <nickm@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, all!

If you are using any version of openssl 1.0.1, 1.0.1a, or 1.0.1b, you
should know that it's affected by a recent security advisory:

https://www.openssl.org/news/secadv_20120510.txt

If I am reading the diffs for this bug right, it looks like it would
attacker to crash a server remotely.  To avoid that, I'd recommend
that all Tor nodes running any version of OpenSSL 1.0.1 should upgrade
to 1.0.1c.

Non-1.0.1 version of OpenSSL have this bug in their DTLS
implementations, but Tor doesn't use DTLS.

We'll try to get new packages out soon.

yrs,
