I can't confirm that 2.3.2 and 2.3.4 are equal from a security point of
view, because as Gert said, any version change could bring in new
[security] bugs :).

However, what I can confirm is that OpenVPN Linux binaries are almost
always linked to OpenSSL packages provided by the Linux distribution;
this is also the case for my OpenVPN Debian/Ubuntu packages, Just use an
up-to-date OpenSSL version from your distro's repositories and you
should be fine.
