Version 1.7.3 of Viscosity is now available for both Mac and Windows! Version 1.7.3 was released shortly after 1.7.2, and fixes two small regressions introduced in version 1.7.2. This release includes updates to the latest versions of the OpenVPN 2.3 and 2.4 branches.
The OpenVPN updates address a number of recently discovered potential security vulnerabilities in the OpenVPN codebase. While these are considered low-impact for OpenVPN clients, we still encourage all users to update as soon as possible. These vulnerabilities largely centre on DoS (Denial of Service) attacks that could potentially stall or terminate a VPN connection rather than VPN traffic disclosure. However users connecting through HTTP proxies that use NTLM authentication are potentially at risk of memory disclosure if using the proxy through an insecure network environment.
