Lior Shafir, Yehuda Afek, and Anat Bremler-Barr discovered that Unbound incorrectly handled certain queries. A remote attacker could use this issue to perform an amplification attack directed at a target. (CVE-2020-12662)

It was discovered that Unbound incorrectly handled certain malformed answers. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Unbound to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2020-12663).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
