fwiw, this is a beyond-hacky-could-fail quick thing[5] that gives you
fingerprints of relays that were vulnerable in a recent
vulnerable-relay-file[6] (ideally it would pull those vulnerable relays
from some online source) that are in any consensus provided (default is
latest consensus available in Tor Metrics):

http://ravinesmp.com:7777/

Provide consensus using "/consensus/%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S" (standard UTC date
format).

Consensuses are available since ~2008. So e.g. current vulnerable relay
fingerprint list intersected with an older consensus when there were
heartbleeding openssl versions:

http://ravinesmp.com:7777/consensus/2012-10-20%2016:00:00 ("
http://ravinesmp.com:7777/consensus/2012-10-20 16:00:00")

There's also a nice concise Nick's script to get the % of network bandwidth
of any given list of relay fingerprints (bandwidth is the one in the
consensus, so parts of it will be self-reported and parts of it will be
measured)[7].
