<https://community.openvpn.net/openvpn/wiki/CVE-2025-2704>./
/Access Server 2.14.3 was released April 14th that has this version
and fix in it./
* *Updated: DCO Linux upstreaming*

but very close to being merge ready./
/Sabrina has extensively reviewed and all items are now resolved and
her reviewed-by blessing given./
/Jakub is now reviewing and had a few comments and a patchset v26
was sent in yesterday to address these./
/The tentative expectation is that once finally Jakub okays it, it
may get merged./
* *Updated: Release 2.7*
/Unfortunately our initial goal to get 2.7 ready for the next Debian
13 release is not feasible./
/Current estimates are to have all major code items in by May 1st
and then a release on July 1st./
/For DCO the plan is to take the DCO code that is being worked on to
upstream to Linux kernel, and make it like a backport to go together
with 2.7./
/For changes to Windows service handling for 2.7, those changes have
been made so openvpn can run nicely under a limited privileges account./
/There is a party interested in doing a security audit of OpenVPN
2.7, there are some questions to be clarified about it being a code
audit and/or testing./
/SRLabs.de was the party chosen to do the audit./
* *Updated: forums situation*
/Situation in a nutshell; old forums got flooded with spam. attempt
was made to make new forums to fix it. this was aborted. now we're
in limbo./
/We now have someone from OpenVPN Inc to help us fix it up, so we'll
let him try./
* *Updated: new --dns option support*
/https://gerrit.openvpn.net/q/topic:%22dns+option%22
<https://gerrit.openvpn.net/q/topic:%22dns+option%22>/
/Implementation for unix-like has needed approvals but needs to go
in. Windows implementation is done and in./
/Currently work is being done on expanding the test framework to
test the new DNS options - server-side of that is done, client side
needs to comply./
As always you're welcome to join at #openvpn-meeting on Libera IRC
