1. The article is just a reference, but if we use a known security scanner the combination of ssl protocol and cipher suites used identifies these vulnerabilities on a given machine with available TLS lower versions, check for some thing like beast attack.
2. The conf file changes done will not countermeasure the sytemplate vuln issue i believe, we may still wanted to confirm that its indeed the httpd.conf which needs to be changed for apache2 as well for the particular template fix.

This is for some Cisco appliance not related to Debian/openssl.
