DESCRIPTION:
mu-b has reported a vulnerability in Cisco VPN Client, which can be
exploited by malicious, local users to cause a DoS (Denial of
Service).

The vulnerability is caused due to an error when handling certain
IOCTLs sent to the IPSec driver (CVPNDRVA.sys). This can be exploited
to cause a memory corruption within kernel space by sending specially
crafted IOCTLs to the affected driver, resulting in a system crash.

The vulnerability is reported in CVPNDRVA.sys version 5.0.02.0090.
Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict access to trusted users.
