Addendum

The web-based OpenVPN ALS (formerly Adito) could be affected by these issues when using a replacement proxy forward or multiple reverse proxy forwards. The scope of VPN session cookie stealing can be limited by enabling the Verify Client Address option. Tunneled web forwards are not affected.

Please note that OpenVPN ALS is separate from the traditional TUN/TAP client-based OpenVPN, which is not affected by this issue.
