Hi,

Perhaps a dumb question, but if the server instance is linked
against an older version of openssl (9.8.x), but the client is
compiled and linked against the vulnerable version, is it still an
issue for both sides, or is the client going to leak private
information ?

The client can then leak keys (both private master key and session
keys), which completely breaks your secure connection, for that
client.

So when the server is not vulnerable, each client has to be attacked
individually, and not-vulnerable clients have a secure connection to
the server. As long as there are vulnerable clients, you should
consider those as potentially malicious, and thus you should consider
the network as insecure.
Then OpenVPN should release new Windows Versions.
The current binaries are linked against OpenSSL (ssleay32.dll, libeay32.dll) 1.0.1.5 (-> 1.0.1e).

Greetings,
Enno
