Synopsis:          Updated ipsec-tools package
Advisory ID:       RHSA-2004:308-01
Issue date:        2004-07-29
Updated on:        2004-07-29
Product:           Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Keywords:          IKE racoon X.509
Obsoletes:         RHSA-2004:165
CVE Names:         CAN-2004-0607
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Summary:

An updated ipsec-tools package that fixes verification of X.509
certificates in racoon is now available.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - i386, ia64, ppc, ppc64, s390, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Desktop version 3 - i386, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64

3. Problem description:

IPSEC uses strong cryptography to provide both authentication and
encryption services.

When configured to use X.509 certificates to authenticate remote hosts,
ipsec-tools versions 0.3.3 and earlier will attempt to verify that host
certificate, but will not abort the key exchange if verification fails.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CAN-2004-0607 to this issue.

Users of ipsec-tools should upgrade to this updated package which contains
a backported security patch and is not vulnerable to this issue.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.  Use Red Hat
Network to download and update your packages.  To launch the Red Hat
