Detailed vulnerability description
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to improper handling of self-pointed glue records in BIND resolver processing when resolving names in a specially crafted zone. A remote attacker can induce the resolver to query a specially crafted zone to cause a denial of service.
The issue predominantly affects recursive resolvers. Authoritative-only servers containing only trustworthy zones and names are believed to be unaffected.
