Package : strongswan
CVE ID : CVE-2026-25075
Kazuma Matsumoto discovered an integer overflow bug in the EAP-TTLS plugin of
strongSwan, an IKE/IPsec suite.
The EAP-TTLS plugin doesn't check the length field in the header of
attribute-value pairs (AVPs) tunneled in EAP-TTLS, which can cause an integer
underflow that may lead to a crash. An unauthenticated attacker could exploit
this for a DoS attack by sending a crafted message.
For the oldstable distribution (bookworm), this problem has been fixed
in version 5.9.8-5+deb12u3.
For the stable distribution (trixie), this problem has been fixed in
version 6.0.1-6+deb13u4.
We recommend that you upgrade your strongswan packages.
