2006-04-05Security Vulnerability -- An OpenVPN client connecting to ajames1-0/+1
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. git-svn-id: http://svn.openvpn.net/projects/openvpn/branches/BETA21/openvpn@983 e7ae566f-a301-0410-adde-c780ea21d3b5
2005-11-09Removed annoying 'i' variable from add_option.james1-0/+1
Allow plugin and push directives to have multiple parameters specified instead of only 1 quoted parameter. Allow plugin and push directives to have multi-line parameter lists, such as: <plugin> my-plugin.so parm1 parm2 </plugin> git-svn-id: http://svn.openvpn.net/projects/openvpn/branches/BETA21/openvpn@785 e7ae566f-a301-0410-adde-c780ea21d3b5

2005-10-31Windows reliability changes:james1-0/+2
* Added code to make sure that the local PATH environmental variable points to the Windows system32 directory. * Added new --ip-win32 adaptive mode which tries 'dynamic' and then fails over to 'netsh' if the DHCP negotiation fails. * Made --ip-win32 adaptive the default. git-svn-id: http://svn.openvpn.net/projects/openvpn/branches/BETA21/openvpn@739 e7ae566f-a301-0410-adde-c780ea21d3b5
