CVE-2026-35058

Status: AnalyzedMedium (6.9)—

Improper validation of packet length during tls-crypt-v2 key extraction in OpenVPN 2.6.0 through 2.6.19 and 2.7_alpha1 through 2.7.1 allows authenticated attackers to trigger a fatal assertion and cause a denial of service via a specially crafted packet.

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
