Summary
Three critical issues in the Fireware OS iked process could allow unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code remotely. WatchGuard has released patches for over two dozen vulnerabilities, including five critical-severity flaws leading to remote code execution (RCE) and account takeover. Three of the critical bugs impact the iked process of Fireware OS, the core Internet Key Exchange (IKE) daemon that handles cryptographic key establishment and manages IPsec VPN negotiations over the IKEv1 and IKEv2 protocols.
