Description

This security bulletin contains information about 6 vulnerabilities.


1) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-8677)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

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 application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when querying for data within a specially crafted zone containing certain malformed DNSKEY records. A remote attacker can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


2) Insufficient verification of data authenticity (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-40778)

CWE-ID: CWE-345 - Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to poison DNS cache.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient verification of data authenticity when accepting records from answers. A remote attacker can inject forged data into the cache leading to DNS cache poisoning. 


3) Predictable Seed in Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG) (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-40780)

CWE-ID: CWE-337 - Predictable Seed in Pseudo-Random Number Generator (PRNG)

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to poison DNS cache.

The vulnerability exists due to weakness in the Pseudo Random Number Generator (PRNG). A remote attacker can predict the source port and query ID that BIND will use and perform DNS cache poisoning attacks.


4) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-59375)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

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 application does not properly control consumption of internal resources. A remote attacker can trigger large dynamic memory allocations via a small document and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


5) Return of Wrong Status Code (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-5987)

CWE-ID: CWE-393 - Return of Wrong Status Code

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


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise the affected system.

The vulnerability exists due to incorrect handling of the wrong status code returned by the OpenSSL within the chacha20_poly1305_set_key() function when using the ChaCha20 cipher with the OpenSSL library. A remote attacker can force the library to partially initialize cipher context, leading to an undefined application's behavior.


6) Uncontrolled Recursion (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-9714)

CWE-ID: CWE-674 - Uncontrolled Recursion

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/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 uncontrolled recursion in XPath evaluation within the xmlXPathRunEval() function in xpath.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crated XML data to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
