Category:FreeBSD Local Security Checks
Title:FreeBSD Security Advisory (FreeBSD-SA-06:11.ipsec.asc)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update to the system; as announced in the referenced advisory FreeBSD-SA-06:11.ipsec.asc
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update to the system
as announced in the referenced advisory FreeBSD-SA-06:11.ipsec.asc

Vulnerability Insight:
IPsec is a set of protocols, including ESP (Encapsulating Security Payload)
and AH (Authentication Header), that provide security services for IP
datagrams. ESP protects IP payloads from wire-tapping by encrypting them
using secret key cryptography algorithms. AH guarantees the integrity of IP
packets and protects them from intermediate alteration or impersonation by
attaching a cryptographic checksum computed using one-way hash functions.

IPsec provides an anti-replay service which when enabled prevents an attacker
from successfully executing a replay attack. This is done through the
verification of sequence numbers. A programming error in the fast_ipsec(4)
implementation results in the sequence number associated with a Security
Association not being updated, allowing packets to unconditionally pass
sequence number verification checks.

Solution:
Upgrade your system to the appropriate stable release
or security branch dated after the correction date.
