CVSS v3.1 |
| BIND 4 (BIND4) and BIND 8 (BIND8), if used as a target forwarder, allows remote attackers to gain privileged access via a "Kashpureff-style DNS cache corruption" attack. |
| An "incorrect assumption" in the authvalidated validator function in BIND 9.3.0, when DNSSEC is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (named server exit) via crafted DNS packets that cause an internal consistency test (self-check) to fail. |
| Buffer overflow in the code for recursion and glue fetching in BIND 8.4.4 and 8.4.5 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via queries that trigger the overflow in the q_usedns array that tracks nameservers and addresses. |
| ISC BIND 8.3.x before 8.3.7, and 8.4.x before 8.4.3, allows remote attackers to poison the cache via a malicious name server that returns negative responses with a large TTL (time-to-live) value. |
| The DNS resolver in unspecified versions of Infoblox DNS One, when resolving recursive DNS queries for arbitrary hosts, allows remote attackers to conduct DNS cache poisoning via a birthday attack that uses a large number of open queries for the same resource record (RR) combined with spoofed responses, which increases the possibility of successfully spoofing a response in a way that is more efficient than brute force methods. |
| BIND 4 and BIND 8 allow remote attackers to access sensitive information such as environment variables. |
| Buffer overflow in nslookupComplain function in BIND 4 allows remote attackers to gain root privileges. |
| Buffer overflow in transaction signature (TSIG) handling code in BIND 8 allows remote attackers to gain root privileges. |
| Buffer overflow in host command allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands via a long response to an AXFR query. |
| named in BIND 8.2 through 8.2.2-P6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by sending an SRV record to the server, aka the "srv bug." |
| named in BIND 8.2 through 8.2.2-P6 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by making a compressed zone transfer (ZXFR) request and performing a name service query on an authoritative record that is not cached, aka the "zxfr bug." |
| The resolver in glibc 2.1.3 uses predictable IDs, which allows a local attacker to spoof DNS query results. |
| named in ISC BIND 4.9 and 8.1 allows local users to destroy files via a symlink attack on (1) named_dump.db when root kills the process with a SIGINT, or (2) named.stats when SIGIOT is used. |
| Denial of service in BIND named via maxdname. |
| Denial of service in BIND named via consuming more than "fdmax" file descriptors. |
| Denial of service in BIND by improperly closing TCP sessions via so_linger. |
| Buffer overflow in BIND 8.2 via NXT records. |
| BIND 9 resolver can crash when stale cache and stale answers are enabled, option `stale-answer-client-timeout` is set to a positive integer, and the resolver receives an RRSIG query.
This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.16.12 through 9.16.36, 9.18.0 through 9.18.10, 9.19.0 through 9.19.8, and 9.16.12-S1 through 9.16.36-S1. |
| Processing of repeated responses to the same query, where both responses contain ECS pseudo-options, but where the first is broken in some way, can cause BIND to exit with an assertion failure.
'Broken' in this context is anything that would cause the resolver to reject the query response, such as a mismatch between query and answer name.
This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.11.4-S1 through 9.11.37-S1 and 9.16.8-S1 through 9.16.36-S1. |
| Sending a flood of dynamic DNS updates may cause `named` to allocate large amounts of memory. This, in turn, may cause `named` to exit due to a lack of free memory. We are not aware of any cases where this has been exploited.
Memory is allocated prior to the checking of access permissions (ACLs) and is retained during the processing of a dynamic update from a client whose access credentials are accepted. Memory allocated to clients that are not permitted to send updates is released immediately upon rejection. The scope of this vulnerability is limited therefore to trusted clients who are permitted to make dynamic zone changes.
If a dynamic update is REFUSED, memory will be released again very quickly. Therefore it is only likely to be possible to degrade or stop `named` by sending a flood of unaccepted dynamic updates comparable in magnitude to a query flood intended to achieve the same detrimental outcome.
BIND 9.11 and earlier branches are also affected, but through exhaustion of internal resources rather than memory constraints. This may reduce performance but should not be a significant problem for most servers. Therefore we don't intend to address this for BIND versions prior to BIND 9.16.
This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.16.0 through 9.16.36, 9.18.0 through 9.18.10, 9.19.0 through 9.19.8, and 9.16.8-S1 through 9.16.36-S1. |
