ISC BIND DoS Vulnerability (CVE-2017-3140) - Windows. Vulnerability in ISC BIND may cause denial of service (DoS) due to endless loop when handling a query with Response Policy Zones (RPZ) using NSDNAME or NSIP policy rules. Attack can degrade service by repeatedly triggering this condition. Affected versions include BIND 9.9.10, 9.10.5, 9.11.0 through 9.11.1, 9.9.10-S1 and 9.10.5-S1. Update to version 9.9.10-P1, 9.10.5-P1, 9.11.1-P1, 9.9.10-S2, 9.10.5-S2 or later

  Successful exploitation of this condition will cause named to enter a state where it continues to
  loop while processing the query without ever reaching an end state. While in this state, named
  repeatedly queries the same sets of authoritative nameservers, and this behavior will usually
  persist indefinitely beyond the normal client query processing timeout. By triggering this
  condition multiple times, an attacker could cause a deliberate and substantial degradation in
  service.");
