Description

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-0739)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The weakness exists due to excessive stack memory consumption. A remote attacker can cause the service to crash.

2) Memory corruption (CVE-ID: CVE-2018-10811)

CWE-ID: CWE-119 - Memory corruption

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause DoS condition on the target system.

The vulnerability exists in the Internet Key Exchange Version 2 (IKEv2) key derivation of strongSwan due to insufficient initialization of the variable that stores the SKEYSEED for IKEv2 key derivation before using the negotiated pseudorandom function (PRF). A remote attacker can trigger a key derivation failure and cause the affected software to clear the uninitialized memory that may lead to crash.
