There seems to be an typo in the following post. It is RSA and not DSA.
The source, OpenSSL's webpage, has the same typo. Refer to
http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/2344
(or http://www.core-sdi.com/advisories/ssh1_sessionkey_recovery.htm).

Daniel Bleichenbacher's webpage at Bell is

I was scared. Petrified. Because (x) hearing voices isn't like
catching a cold, you can't get rid of it with lemmon tea (y)
it's inside, it is not some naevus, an epidermal blemish you
can cover up or cauterise (z) I had no control over it. It was
there of its own volition, just stopped in and (zz) I was going
bananas.
