Title: Snapgear Lite+ Firewall IPSEC Denial of Service Vulnerability

Severity: HIGH

Description:

Snapgear Lite+ is a device with integrated firewall, routing, and VPN support.

A vulnerability has been discovered in this product which may allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service condition.

Sending a 0 length UDP packet through the firewall when IPSEC is enabled will cause the IPSEC implementation to fail. This may result in a denial of VPN/tunnel service.

The firewall must be restarted to regain normal functionality.

Affected Products:

  • Snapgear Lite+ Firewall 1.5.3
