3. Description:
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.
A NULL pointer dereference flaw was discovered in the way Openswan's IKE
daemon processed IKEv2 payloads. A remote attacker could send specially
crafted IKEv2 payloads that, when processed, would lead to a denial of
service (daemon crash), possibly causing existing VPN connections to be
dropped. (CVE-2013-6466)
All openswan users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to correct this issue.
4. Solution:
Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to
use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
https://access.redhat.com/site/articles/11258
5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
1050277 - CVE-2013-6466 openswan: dereferencing missing IKEv2 payloads causes pluto daemon to restart
