According to its self-reported version number, the version of OpenVPN server installed on the remote Windows host is version 2.0.x prior to 2.0.3. It is, therefore, affected by a remote command execution vulnerability in its DHCP component due to a format string vulnerability. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to bypass authentication and execute arbitrary commands with the privileges of the user running the server.
