Vulnerability identifier: #VU139213
CSH Severity: Medium
CVSS v4: 6.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:A/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

CWE-ID: CWE-20
Exploitation vector: Remote access
Exploit availability: No public exploit available

Vulnerability details

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

The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in DNS record text rendering when processing a stored DNS record with a PRIVATEDNS algorithm identifier length longer than the actual identifier data. A remote attacker can supply a specially crafted DNS record to cause a denial of service.

User interaction is required for BIND to later render the stored record to text.
