This was fixed upstream in version 5.9.12. EPEL 10 is not affected because it started with version 5.9.14. EPEL 9 and 8 are affected as they only have version 5.9.10. I have submitted pull requests to include the upstream patch to resolve this. https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/strongswan/pull-request/25 https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/strongswan/pull-request/26 I'll also point out that this is rated with a 9.8 CVSS v3 score, so prompt attention on this would be appreciated.
