# Basic info * Time: Wednesday 1 April 2026 at 14:00 CEST (12:00 UTC) * Place: #openvpn-meeting channel on !LiberaChat IRC network # Topics - **New: OpenSSL 4.0 support** A few patches are needed in OpenVPN so it can all compile without warnings. Patches are already up for review in Gerrit, but need review and merging. - **New: driver signing** The current driver signing uses an EV key that expires April 15. We have a new one so we can do signing manually. But we will discuss possible new automation for driver signing. Not a critical topic as we can do it manually, but should not forget. - **New: Tunnelblick security fix** The following is information provided as a courtesy to people using Tunnelblick. The advice is to update to latest version to solve a security issue. The details are unfortunately not known at the moment to OpenVPN Community itself, but there is an updated Tunnelblick release that fixes a particular CVE. This is the currently available information from Tunnelblick website: https://tunnelblick.net/CVE-2026-31893.html Questions regarding this should be directed to Tunnelblick. - **Updated: OpenVPN 2.7.1 release** OpenVPN 2.7.1 was released on 31st of March. The main website will get the update soon, but on community.openvpn.net it can be found already now. This is mostly a bugfix release. There are a few more DCO event handling fixes coming. We intend to do a 2.6.20 release to bring some of these fixes done in 2.7 to 2.6 as well. Tentatively in 2 weeks from now. - **Updated: forums situation** The header and footer were adjusted a while back to be more community focused. It's not entirely perfect yet but further improvements will be made. Syzzer pointed out we have a 'responsible disclosure procedure' on our main website but it's not linked from the website footer anymore. This will be fixed and also be added into the forum footer. A policy document was made up for the forums, just a beginning; https://community.openvpn.net/Community%20Forum - **community meetup 2026** Coordination is currently taking place here: https://community.openvpn.net/Meetups/2026-Paderborn The date is around 17 and 18 October, location in Paderborn, Germany. - **2.7 security audit** There are still things ongoing in regards to the security audit but no new major findings so far. Still have items to review and go through, but this is ongoing.
