What Can I, the Average User, Do?

Unfortunately, there's not much you can do about this. The only way to fix this problem is for the vulnerable sites to update OpenSSL and reissue their security certificates.

If possible, try to avoid connecting to vulnerable sites and services until they notify you of a fix. Changing your password won't help until the site has fixed the bug, so wait for confirmation from your favorite sites before you go changing passwords. If and when you do get confirmation, audit and update your passwords as usual. If a site is not vulnerable but doesn't issue a statement, change your passwords just in case they were vulnerable in the past. After all, it can't hurt.

How to Audit and Update Your Passwords After a Service Gets Hacked

When something like a password database compromise happens, it's a good time to reassess your online security.  If possible, try to avoid connecting to vulnerable sites and services until they notify you of a fix. Changing your password won't help until the site has fixed the bug, so wait for confirmation from your favorite sites before you go changing passwords. If and when you do get confirmation, audit and update your passwords as usual.

Test your favorite site for vulnerability.  Although this site is very congested at the moment.
