OpenVPN

tap-windows6 driver version 9.26 and earlier does not properly check the size data of incomming write operations which an attacker can use to overflow memory buffers, resulting in a bug check and potentially arbitrary code execution in kernel space

OpenVPN plug-ins on Windows with OpenVPN 2.6.9 and earlier could be loaded from any directory, which allows an attacker to load an arbitrary plug-in which can be used to interact with the privileged OpenVPN interactive service.

OpenVPN Connect version 3.0 through 3.4.6 on macOS allows local users to execute code in external third party libraries using the DYLD_INSERT_LIBRARIES environment variable

OpenVPN Connect 3.2.0 through 3.3.0 allows local users to load arbitrary dynamic loadable libraries via an OpenSSL configuration file if present, which allows the user to run arbitrary code with the same privilege level as the main OpenVPN process (OpenVPNConnect.exe).

OpenVPN before version 2.5.3 on Windows allows local users to load arbitrary dynamic loadable libraries via an OpenSSL configuration file if present, which allows the user to run arbitrary code with the same privilege level as the main OpenVPN process (openvpn.exe).

Private Tunnel installer for macOS version 3.0.1 and older versions may corrupt system critical files it should not have access via symlinks in /tmp.

OpenVPN Connect 3.1.0.361 on Windows has Insecure Permissions for %PROGRAMDATA%\OpenVPN Connect\drivers\tap\amd64\win10, which allows local users to gain privileges by copying a malicious drvstore.dll there.

The interactive service in OpenVPN 2.6.9 and earlier allows the OpenVPN service pipe to be accessed remotely, which allows a remote attacker to interact with the privileged OpenVPN interactive service.

OpenVPN version 2.1.0 through 2.6.20 and 2.7_alpha1 through 2.7.4 allows attackers via an off-by-one buffer write in the NTLM proxy authentication to potentially cause a crash via a crafted NTLM response from a malicious proxy server

OpenVPN Access Server 2.7.2 through 3.1.0 accepts bare line-feed sequences inside HTTP header values, allowing remote attackers to perform HTTP request smuggling when deployed behind a reverse proxy

Improper validation of source IP addresses in OpenVPN version 2.6.0 through 2.6.15 and 2.7_alpha1 through 2.7_rc1 allows an attacker to open a session from a different IP address which did not initiate the connection resulting in a denial of service for the originating client

OpenVPN version 2.6.1 through 2.6.13 in server mode using TLS-crypt-v2 allows remote attackers to trigger a denial of service by corrupting and replaying network packets in the early handshake phase

OpenVPN Connect before version 3.5.0 can contain the configuration profile's clear-text private key which is logged in the application log, which an unauthorized actor can use to decrypt the VPN traffic

Using the --fragment option in certain configuration setups OpenVPN version 2.6.0 to 2.6.6 allows an attacker to trigger a divide by zero behaviour which could cause an application crash, leading to a denial of service.

Control Channel in OpenVPN 2.4.7 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via crafted reset packet.

OpenVPN Access Server 2.10 and prior versions are susceptible to resending multiple packets in a response to a reset packet sent from the client which the client again does not respond to, resulting in a limited amplification attack.

OpenVPN Access Server before 2.11 uses a weak random generator used to create user session token for the web portal

The OpenVPN Access Server installer creates a log file readable for everyone, which from version 2.10.0 and before 2.11.0 may contain a random generated admin password

OpenVPN 2.5.1 and earlier versions allows a remote attackers to bypass authentication and access control channel data on servers configured with deferred authentication, which can be used to potentially trigger further information leaks.

OpenVPN Access Server older than version 2.8.4 and version 2.9.5 generates new user authentication tokens instead of reusing exiting tokens on reconnect making it possible to circumvent the initial token expiry timestamp.

An issue was discovered in OpenVPN Access Server before 2.7.0 and 2.8.x before 2.8.3. With the full featured RPC2 interface enabled, it is possible to achieve a temporary DoS state of the management interface when sending an XML Entity Expansion (XEE) payload to the XMLRPC based…
