      Is there a way to update my OpenVPN server in pfSense 2.7.0 to get rid of CVE-2023-46850?

      I don't see any update for OpenVPN package and i'm currently using pfSense 2.7.0

        @luquinhasdainfra Have you looked at 2.7.1?

        Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
        When upgrading, allow 10-15 minutes to restart, or more depending on packages and device speed.

          @SteveITS I just seen it, it's really nice to know that openvpn is up to date on the latest version of pfSense,

          But, i'm a bit afraid to update my system and lose the stability that i have nowdays. I'm looking for a way to update just my openvpn package,

          Already tried "pkg-static upgrade openvpn" but it just broke my lab with the following error: "shared object "libssl.so.30" not found required by openvpn". I think that is because of the missing update of OpenSSL to version 3.0.12

              @Bob-Dig lol i just update the production firewall minutes ago, it was smooth and everything is working!

              OpenVPN is in version 2.6.7, so i guess it is fine.

                @luquinhasdainfra yes you cannot upgrade packages for a later version. See my sig.

                Pre-2.7.2/23.09: Only install packages for your version, or risk breaking it. Select your branch in System/Update/Update Settings.
