| 2 | ||||
| 3 | OpenVPN 2.7 using the mbedTLS backend ignores the `--x509-username-field` configuration and always uses the certificate Common Name, which allows remote authenticated users to potentially be identified as the wrong user or receive incorrect configurations. |
|||
| 4 | ||||
| 5 | Affects versions 2.7_alpha1 through 2.7.5. This is fixed in version 2.7.6. |
