Description:
NetScreen Global PRO contains an error in the default configuration of phase 1 and phase 2 proposals using AES encryption. This causes firewall and VPN appliances to use DES encryption instead of AES.
This results in a lower grade encryption than expected, but does not expose your communication directly.
This has been confirmed for version 4.0.0r1 to 4.0.0r5 and 4.1.0r1
