  <background>
    <p>FreeRADIUS is an open source RADIUS authentication server.</p>
  </background>
  <description>
    <p>It was discovered that the implementation of TTLS and PEAP in FreeRADIUS
      skips inner authentication when it handles a resumed TLS connection. The
      affected versions of FreeRADIUS fails to reliably prevent the resumption
      of unauthenticated sessions unless the TLS session cache is disabled
      completely.
    </p>
  </description>
  <impact type="normal">
    <p>An unauthenticated remote user can bypass authentication by starting a
      session, and then resuming an unauthenticated TLS session before inner
      authentication has been completed successfully.
    </p>
  </impact>
  <workaround>
    <p>Set “enabled = no” in the cache subsection of eap module settings to
      disable TLS session caching.
    </p>
  </workaround>
  <resolution>
    <p>All FreeRADIUS users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
    
    <code>
      # emerge --sync
      # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-dialup/freeradius-3.0.14"
    </code>
