    OpenVPN servers between 2.6.1 and 2.6.13 using
                --tls-crypt-v2 can be made to abort with an ASSERT() message by                 sending a particular combination of authenticated and malformed packets.
    To trigger the bug, a valid tls-crypt-v2 client key is needed, or                 network observation of a handshake with a valid tls-crypt-v2 client key     No crypto integrity is violated, no data is leaked, and no remote                 code execution is possible.
