    Two Denial of Service vulnerabilities have been reported in racoon:
    </p>
    <ul>
    <li>
    The vendor reported a memory leak in racoon/proposal.c that can be
    triggered via invalid proposals (CVE-2008-3651).
    </li>
    <li>
    Krzysztof Piotr Oledzk reported that src/racoon/handler.c does not
    remove an "orphaned ph1" (phase 1) handle when it has been initiated
    remotely (CVE-2008-3652).
    </li>
    </ul>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">

    An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to cause a Denial of
    Service.
