Description
Xu Biang discovered that the strongSwan client incorrectly handled
EAP-MSCHAPv2 failure requests. If a user or automated system were tricked
into connecting to a malicious server, a remote attacker could use this
issue to cause strongSwan to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or
possibly execute arbitrary code.
