Are there enough eyeballs? Does Heartbleed and Shellshock mean that Free Software security is broken?

In The Cathedral and the Bazaar open source advocate Eric Raymond cites 'Linus's Law' which states "given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow". By this he meant that security and usability bugs in software would be found because the source code is open for developers to audit. Advocates of proprietary software assert that in the light of the Heartbleed and Shellshock vulnerabilities in free software that Linus's Law has been proven false. Linus's Law remains valid. This has been demonstrated by the response of the free software communities to the recent incidents. Some steps users of free software can take to protect their systems will be discussed briefly, including the Australian Signals Directorate's Top 4 Mitigation's in a Linux Environment which can stop an estimated 85 percent of targeted cyber intrusions.
