   An update that solves one vulnerability and has one errata
   is now available.

Description:

   ipsec-tools was updated to fix one security issue and a bug.

   This security issue was fixed:

   - CVE-2015-4047: racoon/gssapi.c in ipsec-tools allowed remote attackers
     to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and IKE daemon
     crash) via a series of crafted UDP requests (bsc#931989).

   Due to a packaging error, the racoonf.conf config file was symlinked to
   /usr/share/doc/packages/ipsec-tools/examples/racoon/samples/racoon.conf
   on some processor platforms, edits might have happened only in this
    example file.

   Before upgrading, please check if /etc/racoon/racoon.conf is a symlink to
   this example file and backup the content. (bsc#939810)
