CVE-2009-1574 <http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-1574>
racoon/isakmp_frag.c in ipsec-tools before 0.7.2 allows remote attackers 
to cause a denial of service (crash) via crafted fragmented packets 
without a payload, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference.

CVE-2009-1632 <http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-1632>
Multiple memory leaks in Ipsec-tools before 0.7.2 allow remote attackers 
to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via vectors involving 
(1) signature verification during user authentication with X.509 
certificates, related to the eay_check_x509sign function in 
src/racoon/crypto_openssl.c; and (2) the NAT-Traversal (aka NAT-T) 
keepalive implementation, related to src/racoon/nattraversal.c.

CVE-2008-3651 <http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-3651>
Memory leak in racoon/proposal.c in the racoon daemon in ipsec-tools 
before 0.7.1 allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of 
service (memory consumption) via invalid proposals.

CVE-2008-3652 <http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-3652>
src/racoon/handler.c in racoon in ipsec-tools does not remove an 
"orphaned ph1" (phase 1) handle when it has been initiated remotely, 
which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource 
consumption).
