AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:P

OpenVPN 2.0.7 and earlier, when configured to use the --management option with an IP that is not 127.0.0.1, uses a cleartext password for TCP sessions to the management interface, which might allow remote attackers to view sensitive information or cause a denial of service.

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

OpenVPN 2.x before 2.0.4, when running in TCP mode, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) by forcing the accept function call to return an error status, which leads to a null dereference in an exception handler.

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

OpenVPN before 2.0.1 does not properly flush the OpenSSL error queue when a packet can not be decrypted by the server, which allows remote authenticated attackers to cause a denial of service (client disconnection) via a large number of packets that can not be decrypted.

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

OpenVPN before 2.0.1, when running with "verb 0" and without TLS authentication, does not properly flush the OpenSSL error queue when a client fails certificate authentication to the server and causes the error to be processed by the wrong client, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (client disconnection) via a large number of failed authentication attempts.
