Note to Racoon users (IKE/ISAKMP daemon)

[Jacques A. Vidrine]

As was accidently posted here earlier by Ralf :-), you should be aware
of this issue:

http://vuxml.freebsd.org/d8769838-8814-11d8-90d1-0020ed76ef5a.html

  racoon fails to verify signature during Phase 1

  Affected packages
    racoon < 20040407b

  Details

  VuXML ID  d8769838-8814-11d8-90d1-0020ed76ef5a
  Discovery 2004-04-05
  Entry     2004-04-07

  Ralf Spenneberg discovered a serious flaw in racoon. When using
  Phase 1 main or aggressive mode, racoon does not verify the client's
  RSA signature. Any installations using X.509 authentication are
  strongly urged to upgrade.

  Installations using pre-shared keys are believed to be unaffected.
