Date: Jul 30 2004
|
Impact:
Host/resource access via network
|
Fix Available: Yes Vendor Confirmed: Yes
|

Description:
A vulnerability was reported in KAME Racoon. The software may validate invalid certificates in certain cases.
Thomas Walpuski reported that there is a flaw in the verification of digital certificates in the eay_check_x509cert() function. The function sets a verify callback that will result in a successful verification on certificates that have expired, are self-signed, signed by an invalid certificate authority, used for an invalid purpose, or have a certificate chain that is too long, the report said.
|
Impact:
Invalid certificates may be successfully validated.
|
Solution:
Red Hat has released a fix.

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

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.

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
