- Do bound check in read_key before using values(CVE-2017-12166 bsc#1060877).
[+ 0012-Fix-bounds-check-in-read_key.patch]

Tue Jun 20 14:00:00 2017 psimonsAATTsuse.com
- 0001-Fix-remote-triggerable-memory-leaks-CVE-2017-7521.patch:
Several OpenSSL-specific certificate-parsing code paths did not
always clear all allocated memory. Since a client can cause a few
bytes of memory to be leaked for each connection attempt, a
client can cause a server to run out of memory and thereby kill
the server. That makes this a (quite inefficient) DoS attack.
[bsc#1044947, CVE-2017-7521]
- 0002-Restrict-x509-alt-username-extension-types.patch: The code
never supported all --x509-alt-username extension types. Make
this explicit by only allowing subjectAltName and issuerAltName
(for which the current code does work). Using unsupported
extension fields would most likely cause OpenVPN to crash as soon
as a client connects. This does not have a real-world security
impact, as such a configuration would not be possible to use in
practice. [bsc#1044947]
- 0003-Fix-potential-double-free-in-x509-alt-username-CVE-2.patch:
We didn\'t check the return value of ASN1_STRING_to_UTF8() in
extract_x509_extension(). Ignoring such a failure could result in
buf being free\'d twice. An error in ASN1_STRING_to_UTF8() can be
caused remotely if the peer can make the local process run out of
memory. [bsc#1044947, CVE-2017-7521]
- 0004-Prevent-two-kinds-of-stack-buffer-OOB-reads-and-a-cr.patch:
If clients use a HTTP proxy with NTLM authentication, a
man-in-the-middle attacker between the client and the proxy can
cause the client to crash or disclose at most 96 bytes of stack
memory. The disclosed stack memory is likely to contain the proxy
password. If the proxy password is not reused, this is unlikely
to compromise the security of the OpenVPN tunnel itself. Clients
who do not use the --http-proxy option with ntlm2 authentication
are not affected. [bsc#1044947, CVE-2017-7520]
- 0005-Fix-remotely-triggerable-ASSERT-on-malformed-IPv6-pa.patch:
Correct sanity checks on IPv6 packet length in mss_fixup_ipv6(),
and change the ASSERT() check in mss_fixup_dowork() into a simple
\"return\" (= the TCP header will simply not be inspected further).
This can be used to remotely shutdown an openvpn server or
client, if IPv6 and --mssfix are enabled and the IPv6 networks
used inside the VPN are known. [bsc#1044947, CVE-2017-7508]

- Improved netconfig based client up and down sample scripts.

Fri Jun 11 14:00:00 2010 anschneiderAATTexsuse.de
- Added netconfig based client up and down scripts to samples.

Thu Mar 11 13:00:00 2010 mtAATTsuse.de
- Updated to openvpn 2.1.1; linux related changes since 2.1_rc20:

* Fixed a couple issues in sample plugins auth-pam.c and
down-root.c.
(1) Fail gracefully rather than segfault if calloc returns NULL.
(2) The openvpn_plugin_abort_v1 function can potentially be
called with handle == NULL. Add code to detect this case,
and if so, avoid dereferencing pointers derived from handle
(Thanks to David Sommerseth for finding this bug).

* Documented \"multihome\" option in the man page.

* Added a hard failure when peer provides a certificate chain
with depth > 16. Previously, a warning was issued.

* Added additional session renegotiation hardening. OpenVPN has
always required that mid-session renegotiations build up a new
SSL/TLS session from scratch. While the client certificate
common name is already locked against changes in mid-session
TLS renegotiations, we now extend this locking to the
auth-user-pass username as well as all certificate content in
the full client certificate chain.
- Improved openvpn init script adding messages giving a hint about
pid write failure and to look into the log messages (bnc#559041).
- Added -fno-strict-aliasing to compile flags in the spec file.

Fri Dec 18 13:00:00 2009 mtAATTsuse.de
- Updated to openvpn 2.1 2.1_rc20, fixing problems in route and
option handling provided by the from server (bnc#552440).
For complete list of changes, see ChangeLog file, here just
the IMO most important:

* Fixed a bug introduced in 2.1_rc17 (svn r4436) where using
the redirect-gateway option by itself, without any extra
parameters, would cause the option to be ignored.

* Optimized PUSH_REQUEST handshake sequence to shave several
seconds off of a typical client connection initiation.

* The maximum number of \"route\" directives (specified in the
config file or pulled from a server) can now be configured
via the new \"max-routes\" directive.

* Eliminated the limitation on the number of options that can
be pushed to clients, including routes. Previously, all
pushed options needed to fit within a 1024 byte options
string.

* Added --server-poll-timeout option : when polling possible
remote servers to connect to in a round-robin fashion,
spend no more than n seconds waiting for a response before
trying the next server.

* Added the ability for the server to provide a custom reason
string when an AUTH_FAILED message is returned to the client.
This string can be set by the server-side managment interface
and read by the client-side management interface.

* client-kill management interface command, when issued on server,
will now send a RESTART message to client. This feature is
intended to make UDP clients respond the same as TCP clients
in the case where the server issues a RESTART message in order
to force the client to reconnect and pull a new options/route
list.

Fri Oct 2 14:00:00 2009 mtAATTsuse.de
- Added network-remotefs to init script dependencies (bnc#522279).

Wed Jun 10 14:00:00 2009 mtAATTsuse.de
