Unbound Security Vulnerabilities
Unbound before 1.3.4 does not properly verify signatures for NSEC3 records, which allows remote attackers to cause secure delegations to be downgraded via DNS spoofing or other DNS-related attacks in conjunction with crafted delegation responses.

daemon/worker.c in Unbound 1.x before 1.4.10, when debugging functionality and the interface-automatic option are enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon exit) via a crafted DNS request that triggers improper error handling.

iterator.c in NLnet Labs Unbound before 1.5.1 does not limit delegation chaining, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory and CPU consumption) via a large or infinite number of referrals.

A flaw was found in the way unbound before 1.6.8 validated wildcard-synthesized NSEC records. An improperly validated wildcard NSEC record could be used to prove the non-existence (NXDOMAIN answer) of an existing wildcard record, or trick unbound into accepting a NODATA proof.

Unbound before 1.9.4 accesses uninitialized memory, which allows remote attackers to trigger a crash via a crafted NOTIFY query. The source IP address of the query must match an access-control rule.

Unbound 1.6.4 through 1.9.4 contain a vulnerability in the ipsec module that can cause shell code execution after receiving a specially crafted answer. This issue can only be triggered if unbound was compiled with --enable-ipsecmod support, and ipsecmod is enabled and used in the configuration.
