Synopsis
========
IPsec-Tools' racoon is affected by a remote Denial of Service
vulnerability.
Background
==========
IPsec-Tools is a port of KAME's implementation of the IPsec utilities.
It contains a collection of network monitoring tools, including racoon,
ping, and ping6.
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 net-firewall/ipsec-tools < 0.7.1 >= 0.7.1
Description
===========
Two Denial of Service vulnerabilities have been reported in racoon:
* The vendor reported a memory leak in racoon/proposal.c that can be
triggered via invalid proposals (CVE-2008-3651).
* Krzysztof Piotr Oledzk reported that src/racoon/handler.c does not
remove an "orphaned ph1" (phase 1) handle when it has been initiated
remotely (CVE-2008-3652).
Impact
======
An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to cause a Denial of
Service.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All IPsec-Tools users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot -v ">=net-firewall/ipsec-tools-0.7.1"
