Descriptions

libreswan 3.9 through 3.12 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon restart) via an IKEv1 packet with (1) unassigned bits set in the IPSEC DOI value or (2) the next payload value set to ISAKMP_NEXT_SAK.

libreswan 3.9 hasta 3.12 permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (reinicio de demonio) a través de un paquete IKEv1 con (1) bits no asignados configurados en el valor IPSEC DOI o (2) el valor del próxima carga útil configurado en ISAKMP_NEXT_SAK.

A flaw was discovered in the way Libreswan's IKE daemon processed certain IKEv1 payloads. A remote attacker could send specially crafted IKEv1 payloads that, when processed, would lead to a denial of service (daemon crash).
