Description Srikanth Balasubramanian 2026-08-17 10:44:12 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.

OpenVPN 2.7_alpha1 through 2.7.5 using mbedTLS allows remote authenticated users to be misidentified by ignoring the configured X.509 username identity lookup field
Comment 1 Frank Lichtenheld 2026-08-17 12:13:53 UTC 
Only affects mbedTLS builds. All Fedora/EPEL builds are built against OpenSSL.
