+Package: openvpn
+Vulnerability: arbitrary code execution, denial of service
+OpenPKG Specific: no
+
+Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages:
+OpenPKG CURRENT <= openvpn-2.0.2-20050928 >= openvpn-2.0.4-20051102
+OpenPKG 2.5 <= openvpn-2.0.2-2.5.0 >= openvpn-2.0.2-2.5.1

+Dependent Packages: none
+
+Description:
+ According to a BUGTRAQ report [0], a Denial of Service (DoS)
+ vulnerability exists in the OpenVPN [1] network security application.
+ The vulnerability allows a malicious or compromised server to execute
+ arbitrary code on the client. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
+ (CVE) project assigned the id CVE-2005-3393 [2] to the problem.
+
+ Additionally, another DoS situation can occur if OpenVPN in TCP server
+ mode receives an error on accept(2) and the resulting exception
+ handler causes a segmentation fault. The Common Vulnerabilities and
+ Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id CVE-2005-3409 [3] to the
+ problem.
+
+ Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/openpkg
+ rpm -q openvpn". If you have the "openvpn" package installed and its
+ version is affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately
+ upgrade it (see Solution) [4][5].
+
+Solution:
+ Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
+ [6][7], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [8][9] or a mirror
+ location, verify its integrity [10], build a corresponding binary
+ RPM from it [3] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the
+ binary RPM [5]. For the most recent release OpenPKG 2.5, perform the
+ following operations to permanently fix the security problem (for
+ other releases adjust accordingly).
+
+ $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
+ ftp> bin
+ ftp> cd release/2.5/UPD
+ ftp> get openvpn-2.0.2-2.5.1.src.rpm
+ ftp> bye
+ $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -v --checksig openvpn-2.0.2-2.5.1.src.rpm
+ $ <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm --rebuild openvpn-2.0.2-2.5.1.src.rpm
+ $ su -
+ # <prefix>/bin/openpkg rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/openvpn-2.0.2-2.5.1.*.rpm
