CVE-2026-42959

NLnet Labs Unbound up to and including version 1.25.0 has a denial of service vulnerability in the DNSSEC validator that can lead to a crash given malicious upstream replies. When Unbound constructs chase-reply messages for validation, the code uses the wrong counter to calculate write offsets fo...

dnsmasq: NSEC bitmap parsing infinite loop

A denial of service vulnerability was discovered in dnsmasq's DNSSEC validation. When parsing NSEC and NSEC3 bitmap records, the window iteration logic fails to account for the 2-byte window header when advancing through the bitmap data. A specially crafted DNS response with a zero-length bitmap...

MGASA-2026-0152 Updated bind packages fix security vulnerabilities

It was discovered that bind contained a vulnerability where a Malformed BRID/HHIT record can cause named to terminate unexpectedly CVE-2025-13878.

Quantum-Resistant Domain Name System: a Comprehensive System-Level Study

The Domain Name System DNS plays a foundational role in Internet infrastructure, yet its core protocols remain vulnerable to compromise by quantum adversaries. As cryptographically relevant quantum computers become a realistic threat, ensuring DNS confidentiality, authenticity, and integrity in t...

bind9: Preparing an NSEC3 closest encloser proof can exhaust CPU resources

A flaw was found in bind9. By flooding a DNSSEC resolver with responses coming from a DNSEC-signed zone using NSEC3, an attacker can lead the targeted resolver to a CPU exhaustion, further leading to a Denial of Service on the targeted host. This vulnerability applies only for systems where DNSSE...

AZL-47039 CVE-2024-1975 affecting package dhcp for versions less than 4.4.3.P1-2

If a server hosts a zone containing a "KEY" Resource Record, or a resolver DNSSEC-validates a "KEY" Resource Record from a DNSSEC-signed domain in cache, a client can exhaust resolver CPU resources by sending a stream of SIG0 signed requests. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.0.0 through...

Important: bind

Issue Overview: Certain DNSSEC aspects of the DNS protocol in RFC 4035 and related RFCs allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service CPU consumption via one or more DNSSEC responses when there is a zone with many DNSKEY and RRSIG records, aka the "KeyTrap" issue. The protocol specification...
