Subject: Re: nss RSA forgery (CVE-2014-1568)

Some more info, but not much:

Initially I thought this is probably not such a big deal because the
bleichenbacher attack requires e to be very small (like e=3 or e=4) and
everyone uses e=65537 these days. But it seems I was wrong on that,
lots of CAs still with e=3.
