Verify Any Configured IPSec Tunnel Connections
Medium Severity
Libreswan provides an implementation of IPsec and IKE, which permits the creation of secure tunnels over untrusted networks. As such, IPsec can be used to circumvent certain network requirements such as filtering. Verify that if any IPsec connection (
conn
) configured in
/etc/ipsec.conf
and
/etc/ipsec.d
exists is an approved organizational connection.
