The WatchGuard Mobile VPN with SSL client is a combination of the open source OpenVPN client and an authentication wrapper to securely download OpenVPN configuration profiles from the Firebox. The software is not compatible with the license key from legacy SecuExtender IPSec VPN Windows Client. WatchGuard maintains two distinct Mobile VPN clients, a Mobile VPN with SSL client and a Mobile VPN with IPSec client, neither of which are vulnerable to the issues described in the CERT disclosure.

In general, the disclosed vulnerabilities involved insecure storage of authentication and session information. On April 14 th, Carnegie Mellon University’s CERT Coordination Center released vulnerability advisory VU#192371, which disclosed security vulnerabilities in several mobile VPN clients from multiple vendors.
