The version of OpenSSL shipped in the base FreeBSD code prior to 10.0
is not vulnerable to the Heartbeat attack, however there is a different
vulnerability which *is* in 8.x and 9.x and was documented in the advisory
as [CVE-2014-0076]

You should update 8.x and 9.x systems also, even though the vulnerability
there is probably not as easy to exploit as the Heartbeat attack.
