  • v2.1.4
    2010.11.04 -- Version 2.1.4
    
    * Fix problem with special case route targets ('remote_host')
    
      The init_route() function will leave &netlist untouched for
      get_special_addr() routes ("remote_host" being one of them).
      netlist is on stack,  contains random garbage, and
      netlist.len will not be 0 - thus, random stack data is copied from
      netlist.data[] until the route_list is full.
      Thanks to Teodo MICU and Gert Doering for finding and fixing this issue.
    
  • v2.2-beta3
    842783a9 · Preparing for v2.2-beta3 ·
    2010.08.21 -- Version 2.2-beta3

      signing drivers and .exe files.
    
      Added win/tap_span.py for building multiple versions of the TAP driver
      and tapinstall binaries using different DDK versions to span from Win2K
      to Win7 and beyond.
    
    * Community patches

      chantra (1):
          Fixes openssl-1.0.0 compilation warning
    
  • v2.1.3
  • v2.2-beta2
    2010.08.16 -- Version 2.2-beta2
    
    * Windows security issue:
      Fixed potential local privilege escalation vulnerability in
      Windows service. The Windows service did not properly quote the
      executable filename passed to CreateService.  A local attacker
      with write access to the root directory C:\ could create an
      executable that would be run with the same privilege level as
      the OpenVPN Windows service.  However, since non-Administrative
      users normally lack write permission on C:\, this vulnerability
      is generally not exploitable except on older versions of Windows
      (such as Win2K) where the default permissions on C:\ would allow
      any user to create files there.

    * Added Python-based based alternative build system for Windows using
      Visual Studio 2008 (in win directory).
    
    * Fixed compiler warning in ssl.c when compiling with --enable-strict
    
  • v2.2-beta1
    4c1938aa · Tagging v2.2-beta1 ·
    2010.08.10 -- Version 2.2-beta1
    
    * When aborting in a non-graceful way, try to execute do_close_tun in
      init.c prior to daemon exit to ensure that the tun/tap interface is
      closed and any added routes are deleted.
    
    * Fixed an issue where AUTH_FAILED was not being properly delivered
      to the client when a bad password is given for mid-session reauth,
      causing the connection to fail without an error indication.
    
    * Don't advance to the next connection profile on AUTH_FAILED errors.
    
    * Fixed an issue in the Management Interface that could cause
      a process hang with 100% CPU utilization in --management-client
      mode if the management interface client disconnected at the
      point where credentials are queried.
    
    * Fixed an issue where if reneg-sec was set to 0 on the client,
      so that the server-side value would take precedence,
      the auth_deferred_expire_window function would incorrectly
      return a window period of 0 seconds.  In this case, the
      correct window period should be the handshake window
      period.
    
    * Modified ">PASSWORD:Verification Failed" management interface
      notification to include a client reason string:
    
        >PASSWORD:Verification Failed: 'AUTH_TYPE' ['REASON_STRING']
    
    * Enable exponential backoff in reliability layer
      retransmits.
    
    * Set socket buffers (SO_SNDBUF and SO_RCVBUF) immediately after
      socket is created rather than waiting until after connect/listen.
    
    * Management interface performance optimizations:
    
      1. Added env-filter MI command to perform filtering on env vars
         passed through as a part of --management-client-auth
    
      2. man_write will now try to aggregate output into larger blocks
         (up to 1024 bytes) for more efficient i/o
    
    * Fixed minor issue in Windows TAP driver DEBUG builds
      where non-null-terminated unicode strings were being
      printed incorrectly.
    
    * Fixed issue on Windows with MSVC compiler, where TCP_NODELAY support
      was not being compiled in.
    
    * Proxy improvements:
    
      Improved the ability of http-auth "auto" flag to dynamically detect
      the auth method required by the proxy.
    
      Added http-auth "auto-nct" flag to reject weak proxy auth methods.
    
      Added HTTP proxy digest authentication method.
    
      Removed extraneous openvpn_sleep calls from proxy.c.
    
    * Implemented http-proxy-override and http-proxy-fallback directives to make it
      easier for OpenVPN client UIs to start a pre-existing client config file with
      proxy options, or to adaptively fall back to a proxy connection if a direct
      connection fails.
    
    * Implemented a key/value auth channel from client to server.
    
    * Fixed issue where bad creds provided by the management interface
      for HTTP Proxy Basic Authentication would go into an infinite
      retry-fail loop instead of requerying the management interface for
      new creds.
    
    * Added support for MSVC debugging of openvpn.exe in settings.in:
    
      # Build debugging version of openvpn.exe
      !define PRODUCT_OPENVPN_DEBUG
    
    * Implemented multi-address DNS expansion on the network field of route
      commands.
    
      When only a single IP address is desired from a multi-address DNS
      expansion, use the first address rather than a random selection.
    
    * Added --register-dns option for Windows.
    
      Fixed some issues on Windows with --log, subprocess creation
      for command execution, and stdout/stderr redirection.
    
    * Fixed an issue where application payload transmissions on the
      TLS control channel (such as AUTH_FAILED) that occur during
      or immediately after a TLS renegotiation might be dropped.
    
    * Added warning about tls-remote option in man page.
