DSA-885-1 openvpn Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in OpenVPN, a free virtual private network daemon. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: A format string vulnerability has been discovered that could permit arbitrary code to be executed on the client. A NULL pointer dereferencing has been discovered that could be exploited to crash the service. The old stable distribution (woody) does not contain openvpn packages.
