+	  <p>Security Fix – affects non-Windows OpenVPN clients running
+	    OpenVPN 2.1-beta14 through 2.1-rc8 (OpenVPN 2.0.x clients are NOT
+	    vulnerable nor are any versions of the OpenVPN server
+	    vulnerable).</p>
+	  <p>An OpenVPN client connecting to a malicious or compromised server
+	    could potentially receive an "lladdr" or "iproute" configuration
+	    directive from the server which could cause arbitrary code execution
+	    on the client. A successful attack requires that (a) the client has
+	    agreed to allow the server to push configuration directives to it by
+	    including "pull" or the macro "client" in its configuration file,
+	    (b) the client succesfully authenticates the server, (c) the server
+	    is malicious or has been compromised and is under the control of the
+	    attacker, and (d) the client is running a non-Windows OS.  Credit:
