From: Steffan Karger <steffan.kar...@fox-it.com>
Previously, if a mode was selected where packet ids are not allowed to roll
over, but renegotiation does not succeed for some reason (e.g. no password
entered in time, certificate expired or a malicious peer that refuses the
renegotiaion on purpose) we would continue to use the old keys. Until the
packet ID would roll over and we would ASSERT() out.
Given that this can be triggered on purpose by an authenticated peer, this
is a fix for an authenticated remote DoS vulnerability. An attack is
rather inefficient though; a peer would need to get us to send 2^32
packets (min-size packet is IP+UDP+OPCODE+PID+TAG (no payload), results in
(20+8+1+4+16)*2^32 bytes, or approx. 196 GB).
This is a fix for finding 5.2 from the OSTIF / Quarkslab audit.
This patch was cherry-picked from b727643c (release/2.3).
