- Updated to strongSwan 5.1.1 minor release addressing two security
  fixes (bnc#847506,CVE-2013-6075, bnc#847509,CVE-2013-6076):
  - Fixed a denial-of-service vulnerability and potential authorization
    bypass triggered by a crafted ID_DER_ASN1_DN ID payload. The cause
    is an insufficient length check when comparing such identities. The
    vulnerability has been registered as CVE-2013-6075.
  - Fixed a denial-of-service vulnerability triggered by a crafted IKEv1
    fragmentation payload. The cause is a NULL pointer dereference. The
    vulnerability has been registered as CVE-2013-6076.
  - The lean stand-alone pt-tls-client can set up a RFC 6876 PT-TLS
    session with a strongSwan policy enforcement point which uses the
    tnc-pdp charon plugin.
  - The new TCG TNC SWID IMC/IMV pair supports targeted SWID requests
    for either full SWID Tag or concise SWID Tag ID inventories.
  - The XAuth backend in eap-radius now supports multiple XAuth
    exchanges for different credential types and display messages.
    All user input gets concatenated and verified with a single
    User-Password RADIUS attribute on the AAA. With an AAA supporting
    it, one for example can implement Password+Token authentication with
    proper dialogs on iOS and OS X clients.  - charon supports IKEv1 Mode
    Config exchange in push mode. The ipsec.conf modeconfig=push option
    enables it for both client and server, the same way as pluto used it.
  - Using the "ah" ipsec.conf keyword on both IKEv1 and IKEv2
    connections, charon can negotiate and install Security Associations
    integrity-protected by the Authentication Header protocol. Supported
    are plain AH(+IPComp) SAs only, but not the deprecated RFC2401 style
    ESP+AH bundles.
  [...]
- Adjusted file lists: this version installs the pki utility and manuals
  in common /usr directories and additional ipsec/pt-tls-client helper.

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...
