Version 47 is now available for download. It solves a few DNS leak issues and uses AES-256 as the default encryption cipher. Pour en savoir plus…

The default OpenVPN stream cipher in new clients and new configuration files is now AES-256. When encountering certain connection problems the client program will fall back to Blowfish 128. To use nothing but AES, set "cipher = aes256" in Settings -> Advanced. Pour en savoir plus…

It has come to our attention that the new WebRTC standard can be used to expose the real public IP of people connected through a VPN-service. In short WebRTC allows users to have video and audio communications directly in the browser without any plugins installed, IPs being exposed is an unfortunate side-effect of how this works.

On 2015-02-01 client programs older than version 46 will no longer be able to connect. Please upgrade. All too many users are still running clients with problems such as Heartbleed and the status indication malfunction. It does not make sense for us to expend effort keeping compatibility with these versions, hurting rather than helping those still using them. From version 46 the latest available version is dispayed in the program, making it easier to upgrade when appropriate. Please do. Pour en savoir plus…

Version 46 is now available for download. It displays both the currently installed version and the latest available version. It also fixes a bug that produced too many error dialogs. Pour en savoir plus…

Version 45 is now available for download. It fixes a bug that would cause the GUI to hang and thus show the wrong connection status. It also works on Mac OS X 10.10 Yosemite. Pour en savoir plus…

We now tunnel IPv6 as well as IPv4. This means you can get connected to the IPv6 internet through Mullvad, even without IPv6 support from your internet service provider. Pour en savoir plus…

A serious vulnerability in the popular OpenSSL cryptographic software library was disclosed 30 hours ago. In short it allows (among other things) anyone on the Internet to extract the private keys used for encrypting traffic and identifying service providers to their users. A more complete description can be read on heartbleed.com. This affects a lot of different services including web, email, instant messaging and OpenVPN (which Mullvad uses). Pour en savoir plus…

Version 42 is now available for download with several improvements. From now on we will provide a changelog for each release. You can see what's new here. Pour en savoir plus…

We hope that you like the new face of Mullvad. Please send us an email if you have any questions or feedback. Pour en savoir plus…
