--------------------------------------
Summary: [VR] [VPN] Downgrade openswan to previous for VPN services
Key: CLOUDSTACK-7087
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOUDSTACK-7087
Project: CloudStack
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public (Anyone can view this level - this is the default.)
Components: Virtual Router
Affects Versions: 4.2.0, 4.3.0
Reporter: Sheng Yang
Assignee: Harikrishna Patnala
Fix For: 4.2.1, 4.3.1
Latest OpenSwan fail to work with OSX/IOS after latest Debian security update(Mar 2014, https://www.debian.org/security/2014/dsa-2893 ).
And why Debian didn’t fix it officially, is because Debian decided to drop the support for OpenSwan(since nobody is maintaining it and it hasn’t been updated for 2 years before this security fix). We would need to move to other VPN software in the future.
Here is the Debian bugzilla for the issue. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=744717
So far, downgrade openswan is only an intermediate solution. We need to move to other VPN software(e.g. StrongSwan) which is still maintained by Debain in the near future.
