    Latest version seems to be buggy and messing with the TAP adapter (from the feedbacks I got.)
    Need to check that.

    OpenVPN v2.4.8 Released (October 31, 2019)
    Download
    Github
    https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn/blob/release/2.4/Changes.rst
    New features
    • Support compiling with OpenSSL 1.1 without deprecated APIs
      handle PSS padding in cryptoapicert (necessary for TLS >= 1.2)
    User visible changes
    • do not abort when hitting the combination of "--pull-filter" and "--mode server" (this got hit when starting OpenVPN servers using the windows GUI which installs a pull-filter to force ip-win32)
      increase listen() backlog queue to 32 (improve response behaviour on openvpn servers using TCP that get portscanned)
      fix and enhance documentation (INSTALL, man page, ...)
    Bug fixes
    • the combination "IPv6 and proto UDP and SOCKS proxy" did not work - as a workaround, force IPv4 in this case until a full implementation for IPv6-UDP-SOCKS can be made.
      fix IPv6 routes on tap interfaces on OpenSolaris/OpenIndiana
      fix building with LibreSSL
      do not set pkcs11-helper 'safe fork mode' (should fix PIN querying in systemd environments)
      repair windows builds
      repair Darwin builds (remove -no-cpp-precomp flag)

    OpenVPN v2.4.9 Released (April 17, 2020)
    Download
    Github
    https://github.com/OpenVPN/openvpn/blob/release/2.4/Changes.rst
    New features
    • Allow unicode search string in --cryptoapicert option (Windows))
    User visible changes
    • Skip expired certificates in Windows certificate store (Windows) (trac #966)
    • OpenSSL: Fix --crl-verify not loading multiple CRLs in one file (trac #623)
    • When using "--auth-user-pass file" with just a username and no password in the file, OpenVPN now queries the management interface (if active) for the credentials. Previously it would query the console for the password, and fail if no console available (normal case on Windows) (trac #757)
    • Swap the order of checks for validating interactive service user (Windows: check config location before querying domain controller for group membership, which can be slow)
    Bug fixes
    • fix condition where a client's session could "float" to a new IP address that is not authorized ("fix illegal client float").

      This can be used to disrupt service to a freshly connected client (no session keys negotiated yet). It can not be used to inject or steal VPN traffic. CVE-2020-11810, trac #1272).

    • fix combination of async push (deferred auth) and NCP (trac #1259)
    • Fix OpenSSL 1.1.1 not using auto elliptic curve selection (trac #1228)
    • Fix OpenSSL error stack handling of tls_ctx_add_extra_certs
    • mbedTLS: Make sure TLS session survives move (trac #880)
    • Fix OpenSSL private key passphrase notices
    • Fix building with --enable-async-push in FreeBSD (trac #1256)
    • Fix broken fragmentation logic when using NCP (trac #1140)
