Viscosity version 1.11.3 is now available for both macOS and Windows! This update is another small maintenance release, with an updated version of OpenVPN, minor enhancements, and several bug fixes to keep your VPN connections working reliably.

We've taken user feedback on board and have made Viscosity more selective about when displaying an authentication failed message to avoid unnecessary prompting. In particular, older OpenVPN servers may send an authentication failed message for a reason unrelated to the username/password used (particularly when static challenge authentication is used), and Viscosity should now ignore these when appropriate.

On the macOS side, this update contains a fix where identities (when using Viscosity's System Identity feature) on an external token may not be correctly discovered. On the Windows side, SOCKS proxies that require authentication are now correctly supported, and an issue has been fixed that could result in certain dynamic challenge requests not being processed.

Finally, this version also updates OpenVPN to version 2.6.12, which addresses a minor security issue and several small bug fixes.
