FYI, since some people will be running racoon as well as openswan.

Unfortunately, this announcement does not contain CVE numbers, so I do
not yet know more about this flaw, and whether openswan would be
vulnerable to this as well.

===========================================================
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-450-1             April 09, 2007
ipsec-tools vulnerability
CVE-2007-1841
===========================================================

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 5.10
Ubuntu 6.06 LTS
Ubuntu 6.10

This advisory also applies to the corresponding versions of
Kubuntu, Edubuntu, and Xubuntu.

The problem can be corrected by upgrading your system to the
following package versions:

Ubuntu 5.10:
   racoon                                   1:0.6-1ubuntu1.2

Ubuntu 6.06 LTS:
   racoon                                   1:0.6.5-4ubuntu1.1

Ubuntu 6.10:
   racoon                                   1:0.6.6-1ubuntu1.1

In general, a standard system upgrade is sufficient to effect the
necessary changes.

Details follow:

A flaw was discovered in the IPSec key exchange server "racoon".  Remote
attackers could send a specially crafted packet and disrupt established
IPSec tunnels, leading to a denial of service.
