USN-8648-1 bind9 vulnerabilities

It was discovered that Bind incorrectly accepted NSEC3 records whose signer name did not match the owning zone. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform NSEC3 impersonation attacks, bypassing DNSSEC validation. CVE-2026-10723 It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled Key...

bind: bind9: DNSSEC Validation Bypass via Out-of-Zone NSEC Next Field

The BIND resolver accepts validly-signed NSEC records where the "Next Domain Name" field points outside the signer's zone...

bind: bind9: Incorrect acceptance of NSEC3 records

BIND may accept incorrect child-zone NSEC3 records as valid, which could allow an attacker to forge authenticated NXDOMAIN responses...

bind: bind9: Potential memory usage beyond configured limits

A DNSSEC validating resolver that is under a random subdomain attack against a DNSSEC-signed zone can suffer from runaway memory usage. The attacker needs to be able to send queries faster than the resolver can perform validation. The increased memory usage can be orders of magnitude beyond the...

bind: bind9: DNSSEC Validation Bypass via Out-of-Zone NSEC Next Field

The BIND resolver accepts validly-signed NSEC records where the "Next Domain Name" field points outside the signer's zone...

bind: bind9: Unexpected exit with NSEC and NSEC3 both present

If a provably insecure domain is covered by both an NSEC and NSEC3 record at the parent, and there exist an RRSIG for only one of these types, then BIND may exit unexpectedly with an assertion while validating this proof...

bind: bind9: DNSSEC Validation Bypass via Out-of-Zone NSEC Next Field

The BIND resolver accepts validly-signed NSEC records where the "Next Domain Name" field points outside the signer's zone...

bind: bind9: Cache poisoning via label count discrepancy, RRSIG, wildcards

It is possible for an attacker's zone to respond to a query with an RRSIG that has a smaller number of labels than the zone in which the RRSIG is contained. This causes named to produce a wildcard name for a zone that is shorter than the attacker's zone, which can result in cache poisoning. For...
