affected?

Start openssl from terminal wait for it start and use version to see if you have one of the versions in question. Close openssl with quit
I know how to check openssl version, question was about bitcoin-qt binary package from ppa

Perhaps try apt-get upgrade and see if it wants to install the new version. Then do not hit Y to install?

I think it showed up on my ec2 server this morning and I installed it since it is just a web server.  I didn't note it though and am not in a position to check right now.

It looks like there is now a patch for it from Wladimir, per the mail list, btw.

edit:
I did check to see if 14.04 was offering to install the update via apt-get and it was not as of now.
