ISC BIND is the Internet Systems Consortium implementation of the
|
|
|
|
Domain Name System (DNS) protocol.

Matthias Urlichs reported that the dns_db_findrdataset() function fails
|
|
|
|
when the prerequisite section of the dynamic update message contains a
|
|
|
|
record of type "ANY" and where at least one RRset for this FQDN exists
|
|
|
|
on the server.

|
|
A remote unauthenticated attacker could send a specially crafted
|
|
|
|
dynamic update message to the BIND daemon (named), leading to a Denial
|
|
|
|
of Service (daemon crash). This vulnerability affects all primary
|
|
|
|
(master) servers -- it is not limited to those that are configured to
|
|
|
|
allow dynamic updates.
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
</impact>
|
|
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
Configure a firewall that performs Deep Packet Inspection to prevent
|
|
|
|
nsupdate messages from reaching named. Alternatively, expose only
|
|
|
|
secondary (slave) servers to untrusted networks.
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
|
|
All BIND users should upgrade to the latest version:
