Description Srikanth Balasubramanian 2026-07-31 04:20:14 UTC 
Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

A use-after-free in OpenVPN 2.6.0 through 2.6.20 and 2.7_alpha1 through 2.7.4 allows remote authenticated peers to potentially cause a denial of service or leak memory via crafted packets during TLS session promotion or expiry
Comment 1 Frank Lichtenheld 2026-08-03 11:20:13 UTC 
2.7.5 has been published to EPEL 10. EPEL 8 and 9 are not affected.
