Description PRE-NVD

Disclosed via GitHub release of openvpn/openvpn. NVD scoring and full description are pending.

AnalysisAI

Remote denial of service in OpenVPN's reliability layer - the custom reliable-delivery sublayer underpinning the TLS control channel - allows unauthenticated network attackers to crash or hang OpenVPN daemons on versions up to 2.7.6 and 2.6.22 by triggering an unbounded TLS retransmission timeout or forcing acknowledgment of packets that cannot be outstanding. The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VA:H) confirms full availability impact with no authentication, complexity, or user-interaction requirements, and downstream VPN clients lose connectivity when the concentrator is taken offline. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation No authentication is required - the reliability layer is targeted before TLS handshake completion, making the attack fully pre-authentication. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 8.7 with AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VA:H accurately captures a network-reachable pre-authentication DoS requiring no authentication or special conditions - any attacker who can reach the OpenVPN port can trigger it. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Upgrade to OpenVPN v2.7.7 or later (for 2.7.x users); users on the 2.6.x branch should apply the corresponding maintenance release incorporating this fix as confirmed in the vendor advisory at https://community.openvpn.net/Security%20Announcements/CVE-2026-84732. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
