Users of OSGeo4W,

FYI the version of OpenSSL that was packaged in OSGeo4W was vulnerable 
to the Heartbleed bug (http://heartbleed.com/). It has been upgraded, 
and the following ticket documents a few alternatives to upgrade your 
system:

https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/ticket/414

AFAIK this is mostly important if your OSGeo4W installation has HTTPS 
access open to the internet.
