- Description:
- OpenVPN is a robust, scalable and highly configurable VPN (Virtual Private
Network) daemon which can be used to securely link two or more private networks
using an encrypted tunnel over the internet. It can operate over UDP or TCP,
can use SSL or a pre-shared secret to authenticate peers, and in SSL mode, one
server can handle many clients.
This development port is updated frequently and is much less well tested
than the formal releases, and functionality and APIs may change without
warning.
DO NOT USE IN PRODUCTION WITHOUT PRIOR TESTING FOR YOUR USE CASE.

security/openvpn-devel: upgrade to commit 64fae9d829
this brings in the upstream development work that has happened over
the last two months, plus two CVE fixes:
- fix race condition in TLS handshake that could lead to leaking of
packet data from a previous handshake under specific circumstances
(CVE-2026-40215)
(Bug found by XlabAI Team of Tencent Xuanwu Lab (xlabai@tencent.com))
- fix server ASSERT() on receiving a suitably malformed packet with
a valid tls-crypt-v2 key (CVE-2026-35058)

security/openvpn-devel: Update 2.7_rc6 -> post-2.7 commit 38243844
OpenVPN 2.7.0 has been released and will show up as "security/openvpn"
soon.
This port skips 2.7.0 release and continues to track development versions,
which will focus on code cleanup / refactoring for the next few months.
Use this opportunity to bring option and dependency handling more in
line with main port
- X509ALTUSERNAME is gone (always-on now in upstream source)
- ASYNC_PUSH added, with freebsd-version dependent handling of
libinotify dependency (see PR 293176)
- UNITTEST added, with libcmocka dependency if unit tests are desired
(cherry picked from commit da00fa0ed292ff71ea1eeaa6902f70d53de9d512) |
