+
+* Security Vulnerability -- An OpenVPN client connecting to a
+  malicious or compromised server could potentially receive
+  "setenv" configuration directives from the server which could
+  cause arbitrary code execution on the client via a LD_PRELOAD
+  attack.  A successful attack appears to require that (a) the
+  client has agreed to allow the server to push configuration
+  directives to it by including "pull" or the macro "client" in
+  its configuration file, (b) the client configuration file uses
+  a scripting directive such as "up" or "down", (c) the client
+  succesfully authenticates the server, (d) the server is
+  malicious or has been compromised and is under the control of
+  the attacker, and (e) the attacker has at least some level of
+  pre-existing control over files on the client (this might be
+  accomplished by having the server respond to a client web request
+  with a specially crafted file).
+
+  The fix is to disallow "setenv" to be pushed to clients from
+  the server, and to add a new directive "setenv-safe" which is
+  pushable from the server, but which appends "OPENVPN_" to the
+  name of each remotely set environmental variable.
+
+* "topology subnet" fix for FreeBSD (Benoit Bourdin).
+
+* PKCS11 fixes (Alon Bar-Lev).  For full description:

+	
+* When deleting routes under Linux, use the route metric
+  as a differentiator to ensure that the route teardown
+  process only deletes the identical route which was originally
+  added via the "route" directive (Roy Marples).
+
+* Fix the t_cltsrv.sh file in FreeBSD 4 jails
+  (Matthias Andree, Dirk Meyer, Vasil Dimov).
+
+* Extended tun device configure code to support ethernet
+  bridging on NetBSD (Emmanuel Kasper).
