VPN Server

Subject: VPN Server

Hi,

I was pentesting a VPN server and could make an aggressive mode connection.  
The vulnerability associated with VPN Servers is a group enumeration 
vulnerability referred as below:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/vpndevc/ps2284/products_security_notice09186a00804a7912.html

Now with the IKE Scan tool , I get the following response frm the vpn server 
using random ID= values for the group. However even though the results say its 
a vpn concentrator its actuall a cisco pix fw implementing a vpn server, which 
is fine just a fingerprinting flaw.  On further digging it was found that the 
vpn server is at proper pacth levels and does not have any groups configured.
However according to vuln description , following handshake to the aggressive 
mode should not be returned, and as one can see the returned handshake is 
successful.  
So i was wondering is having Aggressive mode configured is a problem here ? Do 
we recommend disabling agressive mode , if yes what could be the problem. Since 
no groups are configured , does it boil down to being a problem of 
fingerprinting the product used for vpn server?

As it seems it responds to below message for everything used.

thanks!
