Synopsis ========
A NULL pointer dereference in Openswan may allow remote attackers to cause Denial of Service.
Background ==========
Openswan is an implementation of IPsec for Linux.
Affected packages =================
------------------------------------------------------------------- Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 net-misc/openswan <= 2.6.39-r1 Vulnerable! ------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: Certain packages are still vulnerable. Users should migrate to another package if one is available or wait for the existing packages to be marked stable by their architecture maintainers.
Description ===========
A NULL pointer dereference has been found in Openswan.
Impact ======
A remote attacker could create a Denial of Service condition.
Workaround ==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution ==========
Gentoo has discontinued support for Openswan. We recommend that users unmerge Openswan:
# emerge --unmerge "net-misc/openswan"
NOTE: The Gentoo developer(s) maintaining Openswan have discontinued support at this time. It may be possible that a new Gentoo developer will update Openswan at a later date. Alternatives packages such as Libreswan and strongSwan are currently available in Gentoo Portage.
