Description:
HP has acknowledged a vulnerability in HP Tru64 UNIX, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose certain sensitive information.

The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the IPsec tunnel ESP mode implementation and can be exploited to disclose contents of an encrypted packet by modifying parts of the IPsec packet and causing the endpoint to reply with an ICMP error message containing portions of the packet in plain text.

Successful exploitation requires that IPsec is used in ESP tunnel mode without integrity protection (or integrity protection provided by a higher layer).

The vulnerability affects the following supported versions:
* HP Tru64 UNIX 5.1B-3
* HP Tru64 UNIX 5.1B-2/PK4
