A "programming error" in fast_ipsec in FreeBSD 4.8-RELEASE through 6.1-STABLE and NetBSD 2 through 3 does not properly update the sequence number associated with a Security Association, which allows packets to pass sequence number checks and allows remote attackers to capture IPSec packets and conduct replay attacks.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This old BSD IPsec flaw can weaken VPN-style traffic protection. A sequence-number handling error may let captured IPsec packets pass replay checks, enabling replay attacks against affected FreeBSD and NetBSD systems. Business urgency is mainly for legacy network appliances, gateways, or servers still running these operating system versions with IPsec enabled. Exposure is most likely on legacy FreeBSD or NetBSD systems using fast_ipsec/IPsec, especially VPN gateways or network security devices. Modern systems are unlikely affected unless they run these historical branches or embedded derivatives. Treat as a legacy infrastructure risk. Prioritize if affected systems protect sensitive traffic, support site-to-site VPNs, or sit on critical network paths. If no affected BSD IPsec systems exist, business urgency is low. Mitigation focus: Inventory FreeBSD and NetBSD systems, including embedded appliances and legacy gateways.; Identify systems running the affected FreeBSD or NetBSD version ranges.; Determine whether fast_ipsec or IPsec is enabled on those systems..
