Detail

Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in strongswan, an implementation of the IPSEC and IKE protocols. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems:

CVE-2009-1957 CVE-2009-1958

The charon daemon can crash when processing certain crafted IKEv2 packets. (The old stable distribution (etch) was not affected by these two problems because it lacks IKEv2 support.)

CVE-2009-2185 CVE-2009-2661

The pluto daemon could crash when processing a crafted X.509 certificate.

For the old stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in version 2.8.0+dfsg-1+etch2.

For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in version 4.2.4-5+lenny3.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in version 4.3.2-1.1.

We recommend that you upgrade your strongswan packages.

Title: RHSA-2009:1138 -- openswan security update (Important)
Description: Updated openswan packages that fix multiple security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. This update has been rated as having important security impact by the Red Hat Security Response Team. Openswan is a free implementation of Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) and Internet Key Exchange (IKE). IPsec uses strong cryptography to provide both authentication and encryption services. These services allow you to build secure tunnels through untrusted networks. Everything passing through the untrusted network is encrypted by the IPsec gateway machine, and decrypted by the gateway at the other end of the tunnel. The resulting tunnel is a virtual private network (VPN).
