Internet Key Exchange (IKE, sometimes IKEv1 or IKEv2, depending on version) is the protocol used to set up a security association (SA) in the IPsec protocol suite. IKEv1, an older version of the protocol, is generally vulnerable to several known exploits in implementations of IKEv1 in firewalls and networking gear that supports IPsec VPN tunnels. Compromise of IKEv1 could allow an adversary to bypass authentication and impersonate clients or servers.

  • SonicWall Secure Mobile Access VPN—Low – SonicWall released an urgent security notice of an ongoing investigation into probable zero-day vulnerabilities with its SMA 100 Series products. SonicWall SMA is a remote access gateway offering application-level VPN, granular access control, and device authorization to access corporate resources hosted on-prem, and in cloud and hybrid data centers. The SMA 100 series (SMA 200, SMA 210, SMA 400, SMA 410, SMA 500v model vpns) running SMA 8.x/9.x/10.x remains under investigation and should be acknowledged as potentially insecure. This issue finds SonicWall Secure Mobile Access (SMA) VPN devices. While this issue does not find model numbers, some server/software numbers and versions of software on login pages are able to be discovered, and are displayed where observed.
