CVE-2024-1975

A flaw was found in the bind9 package, where if a DNS server hosts a zone containing a “KEY” resource record or a DNS resolver utilizes the DNSSEC validate feature to validate a “KEY” resource record, a malicious client could exhaust the CPU resourced from the resolver by sending a stream of SIG(0) signed requests. This issue can lead to a denial of service.
