| + | # CVE-2026-84226 - Windows tapctl binary planting via netsh.exe called without full path |
| + | |
| + | OpenVPN 2.x on Windows allows local attackers to potentially execute code of their choosing by planting a `netsh.exe` binary in a directory searched before the system directory, because `tapctl` invoked `netsh.exe` without its full path. |
| + | |
| + | OpenVPN version 2.5.0 through 2.6.22 and 2.7_alpha1 through 2.7.6 are affected. This is fixed in version 2.7.7. |
