VPN Security Flaw Explained

VPN security flaw: Concerns about VPN security arise due to a fundamental vulnerability in the technology stack. VPNs only operate above TCP/IP, making lower-level network activities beyond their control. This flaw highlights a critical assumption that VPNs provide complete protection on untrusted networks, leading to potential vulnerabilities. Attackers could create a pinhole in the VPN, diverting traffic to specific IP addresses for targeted exploits.
