- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Package : ipsec-tools
Vulnerability : missing input sanitising
Problem-Type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CVE-2007-2524

It was discovered that a specially-crafted packet sent to the racoon
ipsec key exchange server could cause a tunnel to crash, resulting in
a denial of service.

The oldstable distribution (sarge) isn't affected by this problem.

For the stable distribution (etch) this problem has been fixed in
version 1:0.6.6-3.1.

The unstable distribution (sid) will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you upgrade your racoon package.
