Also, check out what he writes on
https://tunnelblick.net/cOpenvpn_xorpatch.html about the original OPN patch:

"However, a Tunnelblick developer has reviewed the patch, found some
problems, and modified it in Tunnelblick to resolve those problems. The
problems that were found and fixed involved insufficient parameter
validation, null pointer dereferences, division by zero errors, and a
buffer overflow."

So might be worth checking out which patch you're using.

Sorry, my fault.  That was Jonathan K. Bullard on openvpn-*users*, who
is maintaining Tunnelblick, and he mentioned that his builds do contain
an obfuscation patch.  So it seems to be the same thing.

Jonathan's mail is here:

http://www.mail-archive.com/openvpn-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg03396.html

(he calls it the "openvpn_xorpatch")

Hi Gert,

I haven't seen anything mentioned by a Jonathan recently, and see
nothing in the openvpn-devel archives, but yes it is about optionally
obfuscating OpenVPN traffic on the wire, adding an undocumented
--scramble option, and taken from here:
.

The upstream FreeBSD port does not normally apply the patch by default,
and I have marked it as controversial and only for compatibility in an
extended help.

The binary packages build the default option set, so they also *exclude*
this patch/feature.

Cheers,
Matthias

Is that the xor obfuscation patch Jonathan mentioned?  Or something else?

[Openvpn-devel] CFT: OpenVPN 2.4 port update (upstream rc2) for FreeBSD

2016-12-16 Thread Matthias Andree
Greetings,

I've put up a new OpenVPN 2.4-rc2 port for FreeBSD for testing.

Get it from .

This time, it also contains the openvpn23 and openvpn23-polarssl ports
(as modified copies of what we have now) that I plan to keep for the
first quarter of 2017 and then retire, just in case.

The diff at https://reviews.freebsd.org/D8813 has been updated, too.

Cheers,
Matthias
