This shouldn't affect Bitcoin Core at all. The only risk is on the server end of the payment protocol (which BCCore does not implement).

The vulnerability does not affect the bitcoin protocol or wallet. It may affect auxilary usage of TLS in RPC-over-SSL and when fetching payment requests over HTTPS.

Not a big deal, but we are going to release a 0.9.1 that updates OpenSSL (see pull #4023 if you want to test) and fixes some other minor issues from 0.9.0.
