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).
