In this video I explain a novel attack on a VPN which routes internet traffic through an attacker's DHCP server, thereby circumventing the alleged protection provided by using a VPN.

Learn about the newly discovered attack on VPNs using DHCP Option 121. This attack is also called TunnelVision (CVE-2024-3661) and a detailed report can be found here:

It is probably not necessary to use a VPN anyway, and this attack just adds one more reason to not use one.
