It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2023-2024-621 advisory.

The Libreswan Project was notified of an issue causing libreswan to restart when using IKEv1 without     specifying an esp= line. When the peer requests AES-GMAC, libreswan's default proposal handler causes an     assertion failure and crashes and restarts. IKEv2 connections are not affected. (CVE-2024-3652)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
