Package: shorewall
Version: 3.2.6-2

Bug:
"/etc/init.d/shorewall stop" "silently" opens the machine for ANY traffic
(built-in chains policy is ACCEPT) because instead of "/sbin/shorewall stop" 
the script
execute "/sbin/shorewall clear".
IMHO for SECURITY reasons it's VARY bad behaviour.

I think, that the command "/etc/init.d/shorewall stop" should execute 
"/sbin/shorewall stop".

Or, at least, action on executing "/etc/init.d/shorewall stop" MUST be
adjusted in "/etc/default/shorewall".

In general, traffic is not allowed in stopped state, regardless of what in
http://bugs.debian.org/342609 (may be solution is "/sbin/shorewall clear" and 
then "/sbin/shorewall stop").

OS:
Debian Etch 4.0r1
