The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to out-of-bounds write error in the Internet Key Exchange Protocol daemon (iked). A remote non-authenticated attacker can cause a Denial of Service (DoS).

 iked will crash and restart, and the tunnel will not come up when a peer sends a specifically formatted payload during the negotiation.

This will impact other IKE negotiations happening at the same time.
