An encryption flaw called the Heartbleed bug that has exposed a collection of popular websites — from Airbnb and Yahoo to NASA and OKCupid — could be one of the biggest security threats the Internet has ever seen.

I first heard of it when South Park: The Stick of Truth was name changed on Steam, but that's all I know about it at the time.
