previous versions of openvpn was affected and hence the release of version 2.1_rc21. There are multiple items that need to be addressed openssl, openvpn, etc... (although I am not an expert in this field but I did stay in a holiday inn). See here http://isc.sans.org/diary.html?storyid=7603

My read on it is that they updated OpenSSL, as they well should have regardless; but they also explicitly state they OpenVPN has never used the Renogitiation algorithm that is specific to the OpenSSL vulnerability. It does look like they've changed some of their own (OpenVPN) routines for more security, but the OpenSSL bug itself is not involved.
