According to its self-reported version number, the version of OpenVPN installed on the remote Windows host is prior to 2.3.15. It is, therefore, affected by a weak cryptographic cipher vulnerability. OpenVPN’s default cipher, BF-CBC, is vulnerable to plaintext recovery when enough cipher text has been observed. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this issue, to decrypt data being sent to OpenVPN.
