 Mandriva Linux Security Advisory                       MDKSA-2005:206-1
 http://www.mandriva.com/security/

 Package : openvpn
 Date    : December 9, 2005
 Affected: 2006.0
 _______________________________________________________________________
 
 Problem Description:
 
 Two Denial of Service vulnerabilities exist in OpenVPN.  The first
 allows a malicious or compromised server to execute arbitrary code
 on the client (CVE-2005-3393).  The second DoS can occur if when in
 TCP server mode, OpenVPN received an error on accept(2) and the
 resulting exception handler causes a segfault (CVE-2005-3409).
 
 The updated packages have been patched to correct these problems.

 Update:

 Packages are now available for Mandriva Linux 2006.
