FreeBSD : racoon -- improper certificate handling (2328adef-157c-11d9-8402-000d93664d5c)

high Nessus Plugin ID 18869

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing a security-related update.

Description

Thomas Walpuski noted when OpenSSL would detect an error condition for a peer certificate, racoon mistakenly ignored the error. This could allow five invalid certificate states to properly be used for authentication.

Solution

Update the affected package.
