Viscosity version 1.7.9 is now available for both Mac and Windows! This update is primarily a small maintenance release that focuses on bug fixes and improvements.

The Mac update addresses some minor regressions with the recent 1.7.8 update that could result in crashes, while the Windows version includes an updated VPN Network Adapter (TAP) driver that addresses a low-severity issue that could result in an attacker with local access and admin rights being able to trigger a system crash. Finally, OpenVPN 2.4 has been updated to version 2.4.6.
