I created an IPSec tunnel between two VMs using StrongSwan. It relies on a Pre-Shared Key. I wonder, if this key is leaked, what could an attacker perform? Would he/she be able to decrypt previous exchanges? Could he/she perform a MITM without be detected? And more generally, what is the impact?

Some details:

  • Mode Tunnel
  • auth-trunc hmac(sha256)
  • enc cbc(aes)
