calls certain functions recursively during packet parsing. Recursion depth is only limited by the
maximum accepted packet size. Depending on the environment, this may cause the packet-parsing code
to run out of available stack memory, causing named to terminate unexpectedly. Since each incoming
control channel message is fully parsed before its contents are authenticated, exploiting this
flaw does not require the attacker to hold a valid RNDC key. Only network access to the control
channel's configured TCP port is necessary.");
script_tag(name:"impact", value:"By sending a specially crafted message over the control channel,
an attacker can cause the packet-parsing code to run out of available stack memory, causing named
to terminate unexpectedly. However, the attack only works in environments where the stack size
available to each process/thread is small enough. The exact threshold depends on multiple factors
and is therefore impossible to specify universally.");
