3
Windows/interactive service: fix bug where the interactive service would error-exit in certain error conditions instead of just logging the fact and continuing.
4
After the error-exit, OpenVPN connections will no longer work until the service is restarted (or the system rebooted).

This can be triggered by any authenticated local user, and has thus been classified as a "local denial of service" attack.
