What Hacker News says
8 sourcesNCSC is calling it SpookySSL but I think it is just for funsies. https://github.com/NCSC-NL/OpenSSL-2022
In OpenSSL 3.0.7 fixes X.509 email address buffer overflowsI'm oversimplifying it a bit, but anything that hasn't reached stable this year is still using v1.1.1 (and therefore unaffected).
Ubuntu v22.04 is vulnerable, but any before it is not. Debian is good (except bookworm which is currently in testing), Fedora (<36) is good, RHEL/CentOS (<9), Arch...
So on top of being not as serious as Heartbleed, servers that are a bit longer in operation (but still well within their support cycle) don't need patching.

EDIT just to add this quote from their blog post (https://www.openssl.org/blog/blog/2022/11/01/email-address-o...):
> We did release an update to OpenSSL 1.1.1, namely 1.1.1s, also on 1st November 2022, but this is a bug fix release only and does not include any security fixes.
