Descriptions

The IPsec implementation in Linux kernel before 2.6.25 allows remote routers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a fragmented ESP packet in which the first fragment does not contain the entire ESP header and IV.

La implementación IPsec en el Kernel de Linux, versiones anteriores a la 2.6.25, permite a routers remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (caída) a través de un paquete ESP fragmentado en el que el primer fragmento no contiene la cabecera ESP y el IV (Vector de Inicialización) completos.

Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the Linux kernel that may lead to a denial of service or arbitrary code execution.
