| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Openswan versions prior to 2.6.39
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, resulting in a NULL pointer dereference and IKE daemon restart, via IKEv2 packets that lack expected payloads. This can lead to disruption of protected information availability. The exploitation of this issue can be performed remotely.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 2.6.39, update to a version later than 2.6.39 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to IKEv2 packets to minimize the risk of exploitation.
