+Overview of changes in 2.6.11
+=============================
+Security fixes
+--------------
+- CVE-2024-4877: Windows: harden interactive service pipe.
+  Security scope: a malicious process with "some" elevated privileges
+  (SeImpersonatePrivilege) could open the pipe a second time, tricking
+  openvn GUI into providing user credentials (tokens), getting full
+  access to the account openvpn-gui.exe runs as.
+  (Zeze with TeamT5)
+
+- CVE-2024-5594: control channel: refuse control channel messages with
+  nonprintable characters in them.  Security scope: a malicious openvpn
+  peer can send garbage to openvpn log, or cause high CPU load.
+  (Reynir Björnsson)
+
+- CVE-2024-28882: only call schedule_exit() once (on a given peer).
+  Security scope: an authenticated client can make the server "keep the
+  session" even when the server has been told to disconnect this client
+  (Reynir Björnsson)
+
+New features
+------------
+- Windows Crypto-API: Implement Windows CA template match for searching
+  certificates in windows crypto store.
+
+- support pre-created DCO interface on FreeBSD (OpenVPN would fail to
+  set ifmode p2p/subnet otherwise)
+
+Bugfixes
+--------
+- fix connect timeout when using SOCKS proxies (trac #328, github #267)
+
+- work around LibreSSL crashing on OpenBSD 7.5 when enumerating ciphers
+  (LibreSSL bug, already fixed upstream, but not backported to OpenBSD 7.5,
+  see also https://github.com/libressl/openbsd/issues/150)
+
+- Add bracket in fingerprint message and do not warn about missing
+  verification (github #516)
+
+Documentation
+-------------
+- remove "experimental" denotation for --fast-io
+
+- correctly document ifconfig_* variables passed to scripts (script-options.rst)
+
+- documentation: make section levels consistent
+
+- samples: Update sample configurations
+   remove compression & old cipher settings, add more informative comments
+
+Code maintenance
+----------------
+- remove usage of <lzoutils.h> header & macro, discouraged by upstream
+
+- only run coverity scans in OpenVPN/OpenVPN repository (= do not spam
+  owners of cloned repos with "cannot run this" messages)
+
+- replace macOS 11 github runners with macOS 14
+
+- remove some unused code in misc.c (leftover from commit 3a4fb1)
+
+- phase2_tcp_server: fix Coverity issue 'Dereference after null check'
+  - the code itself was correct, just doing needless checks
+
+- Use snprintf instead of sprintf for get_ssl_library_version
+  - the code itself was correct, but macOS clang dislikes sprintf()
