I have a l2l tunnel with a vendor that has access to only our 192.x.x.x subnets. They terminate into an ASA 5520 along with remote clients that vpn into the network with Cisco's VPN client.
Problem:
The l2l tunnel that I had set up had a crypto acl allowing 192.168.1.0 and 192.168.2.0 through the tunnel.
The vendor had NINE networks listed and could see ALL of them. When I had them hit the 192.168.1.0 router, the counter would increment. They could hit a 192.168.4.0 subnet, and the ipsec sa said that it was hitting the dynamic map.
The dynamic map applied is used for the remote users, but the l2l tunnel was "leaking" information over to it when it didn't match the crypto acl.
The l2l tunnel is set up with SHA encryption and the dynamic map was using SHA or MD5.
Solution:
To "fix" the problem, more of a workaround, I disabled the remote vpn users from using SHA and only use MD5 for the transform set.
My question is why is the ASA allowing the tunnel information to "leak" into another map if it's not allowed? These are, of course, different sequence numbers, and it really doesn't make any sense to me.
Should I report this as a security bug, hole, glitch, and if so, how do I do it? Cisco TAC said that this is the way it should work, but I see a MAJOR security flaw with this. It's allowing a peer to access networks that it doesn't have access to.
Thanks,
