Verifying OpenVPN Source Packages with GnuPG⁠

All official OpenVPN Community Edition source packages and Windows installers are signed using our Security mailing list GPG key.

GPG key fingerprint⁠

F554 A368 7412 CFFE BDEF E0A3 12F5 F7B4 2F2B 01E7

Download the public key⁠

To import the OpenVPN security key into your trusted keyring:

wget -O security-openvpn-net.asc https://keys.openpgp.org/vks/v1/by-fingerprint/F554A3687412CFFEBDEFE0A312F5F7B42F2B01E7
gpg --import security-openvpn-net.asc

Verify the file signature⁠

  1. Download the .asc signature file and the corresponding OpenVPN installer or source package.

  2. Run the verification using GnuPG:

    gpg [filename].asc

If verification succeeds, you'll see output similar to:

gpg: Good signature from "OpenVPN - Security Mailing List <security@openvpn.net>"
