Description:
Multiple vulnerabilities have been identified in BIND, which is used in virtually any unix flavour and linux distribution.
All BIND 8 versions up to and including 8.3.3 as well as all BIND 4 versions up to and including 4.9.10 suffer a remotely exploitable buffer overflow. This can be exploited on any DNS server, which allows recursive DNS (default behaviour). When BIND constructs a response, which contains a SIG record, a buffer overflow can be triggered making it possible to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of named.
BIND 8 versions 8.3.0 up to and including 8.3.3 suffer a remotely exploitable Denial of Service, which can be exploited by making a client request a non-existent subdomain of a valid domain name.
BIND 8 versions up to and including 8.3.3 suffer a Denial of Service vulnerability, which can be exploited if an invalid expiry time is supplied.
BIND 4.9.2 through 4.9.10 suffer a buffer overflow in LIBRESOLV. This does not affect BIND as such, but it does affect derived resolver libraries using the functions getnetbyname() and getnetbyaddr().
