All 3 systems use openssl and get attacked using Heartbleed.

(And even if they don't reuse even a single piece of code, attackers can still just use multiple exploits.)

yes but 3 different exploits would result in different results. which is an indication that the voting result is irrelevant, and should be repeated

edit: I am by far no expert, yet having anykind of kniwledge in that area, so I apologize for naivity in advance.
