Description

This security bulletin contains information about 3 vulnerabilities.


1) OS Command Injection (CVE-ID: CVE-2019-18934)

CWE-ID: CWE-78 - Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an OS Command ('OS Command Injection')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Amber


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary shell commands on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input in the ipsec module. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application and execute arbitrary commands on the system.

Successful exploitation of he vulnerability requires that unbound is compiled with `--enable-ipsecmod` support, and ipsecmod is enabled and used in the configuration.


2) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-12662)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input when processing DNS responses. A remote attacker who controls a malicious DNS server can send a specially crafted response and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack against third-party DNS servers.

The attack is triggered by random subdomains in the NSDNAME in NS records.


3) Infinite loop (CVE-ID: CVE-2020-12663)

CWE-ID: CWE-835 - Loop with Unreachable Exit Condition ('Infinite Loop')

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to infinite loop when parsing DNS responses. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted DNS response to the server, consume all available system resources and cause denial of service conditions.
