The current version avilable for FreeBSD is vulnerable since 30.05.2017 and=
 has
already been patched upstream. The current contains two DoS-vuln's.

Changelog: https://wiki.strongswan.org/versions/65

Available version: 5.5.2
Patched version: 5.5.3

Security:
- Fixed a DoS vulnerability in the gmp plugin that was caused by insufficie=
nt
input validation when verifying RSA signatures. More specifically,
mpz_powm_sec() has two requirements regarding the passed exponent and modul=
us
that the plugin did not enforce, if these are not met the calculation will
result in a floating point exception that crashes the whole process.

This vulnerability has been registered as CVE-2017-9022 [1].
Please refer to our blog for details. [2]

- Fixed a DoS vulnerability in the x509 plugin that was caused because the
ASN.1 parser didn't handle ASN.1 CHOICE types properly, which could result =
in
an infinite loop when parsing X.509 extensions that use such types.

This vulnerability has been registered as CVE-2017-9023 [3].
Please refer to our blog for details. [4]
