Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.
1) Reachable Assertion
EUVDB-ID: #VU52734
Risk: Low
CVSSv3.1: 5.7 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2021-25214
CWE-ID:
CWE-617 - Reachable Assertion
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a reachable assertion when pressing IXFR queries. An IXFR stream containing SOA records with an owner name other than the transferred zone's apex may cause the receiving named
server to inadvertently remove the SOA record for the zone in question
from the zone database. This leads to an assertion failure when the next
SOA refresh query for that zone is made. When a vulnerable version of named receives a malformed IXFR triggering the flaw described above, the named process will terminate due to a failed assertion the next time the transferred secondary zone is refreshed.

2) Reachable Assertion
EUVDB-ID: #VU52736
Risk: Medium
CVSSv3.1: 6.5 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]
CVE-ID: CVE-2021-25215
CWE-ID:
CWE-617 - Reachable Assertion
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to a reachable assertion when processing DNAME records. A remote attacker can force named to add the same RRset to the ANSWER section more than once, trigger an assertion failure and crash the service. Both authoritative and recursive servers are affected by this issue during zone transfers.
