<h1>OpenConnect</h1>
<p>OpenConnect is an SSL VPN client initially created to support Cisco's <a href="http://www.cisco.com/go/asm">AnyConnect SSL VPN</a>. It has since been ported to support the Juniper SSL VPN which is now known as <a href="https://www.pulsesecure.net/products/connect-secure/">Pulse Connect Secure</a>.</p>

<p>OpenConnect is released under the GNU Lesser Public License, version 2.1.</p>

<p>Like <a href="http://www.unix-ag.uni-kl.de/~massar/vpnc/">vpnc</a>,
OpenConnect is not officially supported by, or associated in any way
with, Cisco Systems, Juniper Networks or Pulse Secure. It just happens to interoperate with their equipment.
</p>
<p>Development of OpenConnect was started after a trial of the Cisco 
client under Linux found it to have many deficiencies:</p>
<ul>
  <li>Inability to use SSL certificates from a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trusted_Platform_Module">TPM</a> or
  <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PKCS11">PKCS#11</a> smartcard, or even use a passphrase.</li>
  <li>Lack of support for Linux platforms other than i386.</li>
  <li>Lack of integration with NetworkManager on the Linux desktop.</li>
  <li>Lack of proper (RPM/DEB) packaging for Linux distributions.</li>
  <li>"Stealth" use of libraries with <tt>dlopen()</tt>, even using
      the development-only symlinks such as <tt>libz.so</tt> —
      making it hard to properly discover the dependencies which
      proper packaging would have expressed</li>
  <li>Tempfile races allowing unprivileged users to trick it into overwriting arbitrary files, as root.</li>
  <li>Unable to run as an unprivileged user, which would have reduced the severity of the above bug.</li>
  <li>Inability to audit the source code for further such "Security 101" bugs.</li>
</ul>

<p>Naturally, OpenConnect addresses all of the above issues, and more.
