Synopsis
ipsec-tools bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated ipsec-tools packages that fix two bugs is now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 5.
Description
The ipsec-tools packages contain configuration and management tools for the
IPsec protocol.
This update fixes the following bugs:
- Under certain circumstances, the racoon daemon terminated unexpectedly due to
referencing a NULL pointer when writing to the system log. The update ensures
that the NULL pointer is never referenced by racoon in this scenario, thus
fixing this bug. (BZ#852735)
- When using the setkey command to dump the pfkey database, the setkey command
could decrease the size of a kernel buffer that is used to send the data.
Consequently, the dumped database was incomplete and the operation failed with
an error in the recv() function. With this update, setkey never decreases the
kernel buffer size, thus preventing this bug. (BZ#852734)
All users of ipsec-tools are advised to upgrade to these updated package, which
fix these bugs.
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
