+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Openswan is an implementation of IPsec for Linux. IPsec-Tools is a port
+ of KAME's implementation of the IPsec utilities, including racoon, an
+ Internet Key Exchange daemon. Internet Key Exchange version 1 (IKEv1),
+ a derivate of ISAKMP, is an important part of IPsec. IPsec is widely
+ used to secure exchange of packets at the IP layer and mostly used to
+ implement Virtual Private Networks (VPNs).
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ The Oulu University Secure Programming Group (OUSPG) discovered that
+ various ISAKMP implementations, including Openswan and racoon (included
+ in the IPsec-Tools package), behave in an anomalous way when they
+ receive and handle ISAKMP Phase 1 packets with invalid or abnormal
+ contents.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="low">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could craft specific packets that would result in a
+ Denial of Service attack, if Openswan and racoon are used in specific,
+ weak configurations.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Openswan users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose &quot;&gt;=net-misc/openswan-2.4.4&quot;</code>
+ <p>
+ All IPsec-Tools users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose net-firewall/ipsec-tools</code>
