Description

This security bulletin contains information about 8 vulnerabilities.


1) Insufficient verification of data authenticity (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-19033)

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

CVSSv4: 8.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to add arbitrary data to a zone.

The vulnerability exists due to improper verification of TSIG signatures in named IXFR processing when processing a multi-message TCP IXFR for a TSIG-restricted secondary zone. A remote attacker can send an IXFR transfer without a valid TSIG signature to add arbitrary data to a zone.


2) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-19662)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: 8.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in qpcache NOQNAME proof handling when processing crafted DNSSEC responses from an attacker-controlled authoritative server. A remote attacker can send a particular sequence of crafted DNS answers to cause a denial of service.

Exploitation requires inducing the resolver to issue multiple queries for a DNSSEC-signed zone and relies on the responses arriving in a particular order and with particular timing.


3) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-19666)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: 8.7 [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]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to use-after-free in query_addnoqnameproof() via the DNS64 filter64 path when processing a malformed applicable answer from an authoritative server. A remote attacker can send a malformed applicable DNS answer to cause a denial of service.

Only resolvers configured to use dns64 are affected.


4) Numeric Truncation Error (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-19667)

CWE-ID: CWE-197 - Numeric Truncation Error

CVSSv4: 8.7 [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]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to numeric truncation in dns_ncache_add() when processing a negative answer exactly 65536 bytes long from an attacker-controlled authoritative server. A remote attacker can return such a negative answer to cause a denial of service.


5) Insufficient verification of data authenticity (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-19941)

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

CVSSv4: 8.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to poison the DNS cache.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient verification of data authenticity in the checkwildcard() function of the named resolver when validating wildcard-nonexistence proofs. A remote attacker can provide an out-of-zone NSEC record as proof that a wildcard does not exist to poison the DNS cache.

Exploitation requires control at the same or an upstream level of the zone name.


6) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-75029)

CWE-ID: CWE-400 - Resource exhaustion

CVSSv4: 6.9 [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]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of duplicate singleton RDATA records in the named message parser when processing query responses. A remote attacker can send a query response containing multiple identical copies of a record that should exist only once to cause a denial of service.


7) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-78301)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: 5.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote user to cause BIND to return attacker-supplied DNS data.

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in the named zone database when loading a malformed zone containing an NS or DNAME node above its origin. A remote privileged user can insert a malformed zone to cause BIND to return attacker-supplied DNS data.

On servers that also provide recursion, BIND can follow the locally sourced zone cut and cache attacker-supplied records for names outside the configured zone. On purely authoritative servers, queries may return out-of-zone referrals without the AA flag.


8) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-80274)

CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation

CVSSv4: 8.7 [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]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper validation of a NOQNAME proof in the BIND validating resolver when processing DNSSEC responses. A remote attacker can send a DNS response containing a valid wildcard answer and signed NSEC3 proof followed by an unsigned NSEC record at the same owner name to cause a denial of service.

The resolver must query a DNSSEC-signed authoritative zone.
