Discussion
Openswan CVE-2013-2053 DNS TXT Record Buffer Overflow Vulnerability
Openswan is prone to a buffer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to perform adequate boundary checks on user-supplied input.
Attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected application or cause the application to crash, resulting in denial-of-service conditions.
Openswan 1.0 through 2.6.38 are vulnerable.
