We were alerted on April 14th that a new release of OpenSSL was scheduled for April 21st, that included fixes with high severity. Yesterday, when the release was published, we investigated our infrastructure and concluded that we need to perform a maintenance across all our VPN servers.
The issue that is fixed in the new OpenSSL release is related to stability, and not security. We will update to OpenVPN 2.4.9 at the same time, which was released on April 17.
The maintenance will affect all our VPN servers. Each server will have a down time of about a minute. The maintenance only affects OpenVPN, so in order to not experience any down time tonight, please connect using WireGuard. Guides for WireGuard are available here: https://www.ovpn.com/en/guides#wireguard.
Our desktop client is unaffected.
