 - Fixed a regression introduced in 4.3.0 where EAP authentication calculated
   the AUTH payload incorrectly. Further, the EAP-MSCHAPv2 MSK key derivation
   has been updated to be compatible with the Windows 7 Release Candidate.

+- Improved the handling of multiple acquire signals triggered by the kernel.
+
+- Fixed two DoS vulnerabilities in the charon daemon that were discovered by
+  fuzzing techniques: 1) Sending a malformed IKE_SA_INIT request leaved an
+  incomplete state which caused a null pointer dereference if a subsequent
+  CREATE_CHILD_SA request was sent. 2) Sending an IKE_AUTH request with either
+  a missing TSi or TSr payload caused a null pointer derefence because the
+  checks for TSi and TSr were interchanged. The IKEv2 fuzzer used was 
+  developped by the Orange Labs vulnerability research team. The tool was
+  initially written by Gabriel Campana and is now maintained by Laurent Butti.
