programs/pluto/xauth.c in the client in Openswan 2.6.25 through 2.6.28 allows remote authenticated gateways to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters in (1) cisco_dns_info or (2) cisco_domain_info data in a packet, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-3302.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2010-3752 affects Openswan client versions 2.6.25 through 2.6.28. A gateway that the client already authenticates could send crafted Cisco DNS or domain information that causes command execution on the client. This is mainly a legacy VPN-client risk involving trusted or compromised gateways. Exposure is most likely where old Openswan 2.6.25 to 2.6.28 clients remain in use. Systems not running Openswan clients, running other versions, or not connecting to authenticated gateways described by the CVE are not indicated as affected by the provided sources. Treat this as a legacy VPN-client cleanup priority. It is not shown as actively exploited in the provided sources, but command execution from a trusted gateway position can be serious where old Openswan clients remain deployed. Mitigation focus: Inventory systems for Openswan client versions 2.6.25 through 2.6.28.; Apply relevant Openswan or operating system vendor updates from the cited advisories.; Prioritize clients connecting to third-party, legacy, or less trusted gateways..
