Marius Tomaschewski 2fa10a3109 - Updated to strongSwan 5.0.4 release (bnc#815236, CVE-2013-2944):
- Fixed a security vulnerability in the openssl plugin which was
    reported by Kevin Wojtysiak.  The vulnerability has been registered
    as CVE-2013-2944. Before the fix, if the openssl plugin's ECDSA
    signature verification was used, due to a misinterpretation of the
    error code returned by the OpenSSL ECDSA_verify() function, an empty
    or zeroed signature was accepted as a legitimate one. Refer to our
    blog for details.
  - The handling of a couple of other non-security relevant OpenSSL
    return codes was fixed as well.
  - The tnc_ifmap plugin now publishes virtual IPv4 and IPv6 addresses
    via its TCG TNC IF-MAP 2.1 interface.
  - The charon.initiator_only strongswan.conf option causes charon to
    ignore IKE initiation requests.
  - The openssl plugin can now use the openssl-fips library.
  The version 5.0.3 provides new ipseckey plugin, enabling authentication
  based on trustworthy public keys stored as IPSECKEY resource records in
  the DNS and protected by DNSSEC and new openssl plugin using the AES-NI
  accelerated version of AES-GCM if the hardware supports it.
  See http://wiki.strongswan.org/projects/strongswan/wiki/Changelog50
  for a list of all changes since the 5.0.1 release.

Dear Customer,

please note, that the strongswan release 4.5 changes the keyexchange mode
to IKEv2 as default -- from strongswan-4.5.0/NEWS:
"[...]
IMPORTANT: the default keyexchange mode 'ike' is changing with release 4.5
from 'ikev1' to 'ikev2', thus commemorating the five year anniversary of the
IKEv2 RFC 4306 and its mature successor RFC 5996. The time has definitively
come for IKEv1 to go into retirement and to cede its place to the much more
robust, powerful and versatile IKEv2 protocol!
[...]"

This requires adoption of either the "conn %default" or all other IKEv1
"conn" sections in the /etc/ipsec.conf to use explicit:

	keyexchange=ikev1


The strongswan package does no provide any files any more, but triggers
the installation of both, IKEv1 (pluto) and IKEv2 (charon) daemons and the
traditional starter scripts inclusive of the /etc/init.d/ipsec init script
and /etc/ipsec.conf file.

There is a new strongswan-nm package with a NetworkManager plugin to
control the charon IKEv2 daemon through D-Bus, designed to work using the
NetworkManager-strongswan graphical user interface.
It does not depend on the traditional starter scripts, but on the IKEv2
charon daemon and plugins only. 

Have a lot of fun...
