unbound: Unbound: Insecure DNS redirection via spoofed DNS answers

A flaw in Unbound's respip module fails to verify the security status of incoming DNS answers when using response-ip rules or RPZ files. A remote attacker can exploit this by spoofing DNS answers to bypass DNSSEC protections and trigger unauthorized rewrites, redirecting clients to unintended...

unbound: Unbound: DNS Cookie security bypass via incorrect server cookie calculation

A flaw was found in Unbound. When Unbound is configured to listen on a proxy-protocol port with DNS cookies enabled, it incorrectly computes the server cookie using the proxy's network address instead of the actual client's address. This vulnerability allows an off-path attacker to harvest a vali...

unbound: Unbound: Information disclosure via DNSSEC wildcard replay

A flaw was found in Unbound, a Domain Name System DNS resolver. A remote attacker can exploit a vulnerability in how Unbound handles expired DNSSEC DNS Security Extensions records. By injecting a replayed wildcard record set, an attacker can cause Unbound to temporarily consider it secure, leadin...

unbound: NLnet Labs Unbound: Denial of Service via faulty DNSCrypt configuration

A flaw was found in Unbound when configured with DNSCrypt support. An unauthenticated remote attacker could exploit a faulty configuration, where an imbalance between DNSCrypt provider certificate and secret key files leads to memory corruption. By sending a specially crafted network request, the...

unbound: Unbound: Denial of Service via crafted DNS-over-QUIC connection

A flaw was found in Unbound. A remote, unauthenticated client can exploit this vulnerability by sending a specially crafted DNS-over-QUIC DoQ connection and a single DNS query. This can trigger an assertion failure in the libngtcp2 library, leading to the termination of the entire Unbound process...

unbound: Unbound: DNS cache poisoning via UDP source port predictability

A flaw in Unbound's SOREUSEPORT implementation reduces UDP source port entropy by allowing attackers to map ports to specific worker threads. This enables DNS cache poisoning, potentially leading to traffic redirection or unauthorized information disclosure...

Important: Red Hat Security Advisory: Red Hat Hardened Images RPMs bug fix and enhancement update

An update for Red Hat Hardened Images RPMs is now available. This update includes the following RPMs: unbound: python3-unbound-1.25.2-0.1.hum1 aarch64, x8664 unbound-1.25.2-0.1.hum1 aarch64, x8664 unbound-anchor-1.25.2-0.1.hum1 aarch64, x8664 unbound-devel-1.25.2-0.1.hum1 aarch64, x8664...

unbound: Unbound: Denial of Service via malformed EDNS Report-Channel option

A flaw was found in Unbound. When the 'dns-error-reporting: yes' option is enabled, a remote attacker can send a specially crafted DNS response containing a malformed EDNS Report-Channel option from a delegated zone they control. This can lead to a stack variable overwrite, causing the Unbound...

unbound: Unbound: Denial of Service via improper validation of DNS-over-QUIC client length

A flaw was found in Unbound when DNS-over-QUIC DoQ is enabled. An attacker could exploit improper validation of client-provided data length, leading to excessive memory allocation. This can cause the system to exceed its configured memory limits for QUIC connections, resulting in a Denial of...

unbound: Unbound: Denial of Service via crafted DNSCrypt query

A flaw was found in Unbound, a domain name system DNS resolver. When Unbound is configured with DNSCrypt support, a remote attacker could send a specially crafted DNSCrypt query over TCP. This malicious query could cause a memory error, leading to a server crash and a Denial of Service DoS. This...

unbound: Unbound: DNS response policy replacement via hostname spoofing

A flaw in Unbound allows a remote attacker to replace an authenticated or Response Policy Zone RPZ by spoofing DNS records for configured primary hostnames. This enables the attacker to impersonate the primary server, leading to DNS cache poisoning or traffic redirection...

unbound: Unbound: Cache poisoning via insufficient RRSIG.Labels validation and premature cache writes

A flaw was found in Unbound. Insufficient validation of the RRSIG.Labels field, combined with premature cache writes during RFC 8198 aggressive NSEC processing, can lead to cache poisoning. This vulnerability allows a malicious actor, controlling a single delegated zone, to poison arbitrary sibli...

unbound: NLnet Labs Unbound: Denial of Service via crafted DNS glue records

A flaw was found in Unbound. A remote malicious actor can exploit a vulnerability by controlling a DNS delegation that returns specific glue records. This can cause Unbound to repeatedly clear its DNS caches, leading to a continuous Denial of Service DoS for DNS resolution...

unbound: Unbound: Denial of Service due to incorrect client reply accounting with specific serve-expired configuration

A Denial of Service DoS flaw exists in Unbound under specific serve-expired and discard-timeout configurations. By sending crafted queries, a remote attacker can exhaust an internal counter, causing the server to drop new legitimate client queries and degrade resolution services...

unbound: Unbound: DNS cache integrity issue

A "ghost domain names" flaw in Unbound allows a remote attacker controlling a domain to manipulate cached DNS records. By extending the lifetime of outdated DNS information, an attacker can cause clients to receive stale or misleading DNS responses...

unbound: Unbound: Heap buffer overflow via malformed DNSSEC record

A vulnerability in Unbound allows remote attackers using malicious DNSSEC-signed servers to send malformed records that trigger a heap buffer overflow. This can cause a denial of service or potential limited information disclosure...

unbound: Unbound: Denial of service due to memory corruption under specific configurations.

A flaw was found in Unbound, a validating, recursive, and caching Domain Name System DNS resolver. When configured with specific modules and under heavy load, a memory corruption vulnerability can occur due to improper handling of view names during subquery processing. This issue could lead to a...

unbound: Unbound: Denial of Service due to freed pointer dereference in DNS-over-TLS handling

A use-after-free flaw was found in Unbound's DNS-over-TLS DoT forwarded query handling. A remote attacker can exploit a timing error during TLS handshake failures on a server under load to trigger a daemon crash, resulting in a Denial of Service DoS...

unbound: Unbound: Denial of Service due to 'harden-below-nxdomain' logic bypass

An off-by-one error in Unbound's default harden-below-nxdomain logic can lead to a denial of service. When an intermediate label under a DNSSEC-signed zone is queried, the flaw incorrectly bypasses configured stub or forward zones, disrupting their name resolution...

unbound: Unbound: Information disclosure due to local policy bypass via unbound-control

A flaw in Unbound's unbound-control utility can omit default-protected zones when initializing local data for a view. This allows queries for protected local names to bypass intended policies and leak to the public DNS, potentially exposing sensitive network information...
