Agenda

  • Handling security vulnerabilities in the future
    • Always get a CVE entry?
    • Always make a security announcement (threat, impact, etc.)
    • Makes handling the issue much easier for downstream
  • OpenVPN 3.0
    • Was released along API documentation under AGPL v3 in FOSDEM 2013
    • Currently used primarily/only in OpenVPN Connect clients for Android/iOS from OpenVPN Technologies, Inc.
    • Getting the code to Git: currently only an outdated tarball is available
  • OpenVPN 2.4
    • What is the goal of the 2.4 release?
    • What patches in "master" are 2.4-only material?
    • Patches
      • Android patchsets
      • Dual stack client patches
      • utun on mac os x
        • native tun, no need for extra tun.kext
        • Supported for all OS X >= 10.6.8 (latest PPC version)
        • Unfortunatly requires root
        • Real question: Drop tun.kext support and support only utun or "try utun first, fall back to tun.kext if it fails"
