The OpenVPN community project team is proud to release OpenVPN 2.6.20. This is 
a bugfix release containing security fixes.

For details see 
[Changes.rst](https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn/blob/v2.6.20/Changes.rst)

Security fixes:

* CVE-2026-40215: fix race condition in TLS handshake that could lead to 
leaking of
  packet data from a previous handshake under specific circumstances
* CVE-2026-35058: fix server ASSERT() on receiving a suitably malformed packet 
with
  a valid tls-crypt-v2 key
  
Bugfixes:

* management: stop periodic bytecount output on mgmt client disconnection
* FreeBSD: make DCO work on systems with no IPv4 support
* FreeBSD: fix compilation with --enable-async-push on FreeBSD 15
* Linux: make DCO work on big endian architectures (MIPS, PowerPC)
* Windows: fix deinstallation progress bar on adapter deletion.
* Linux: fix problem with DCO kernel notifications getting lost, leading
  to overcounting of number of connected clients and general confusion
  between kernel and userland regarding peer status (Github openvpn#900,
  openvpn#918, openvpn#931, openvpn#919, openvpn#945) - this is a backport of
  the fixes in 2.7 plus the infrastructural changes around DCO needed to 
support it.

Windows MSI changes since 2.6.19-I001:
* Built against OpenSSL 3.6.2
* Included openvpn-gui updated to 11.63.0.0
  * Translation cleanup. Remove obsolete strings related to support for OpenVPN
