The remote Fedora 40 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the FEDORA-2024-8af1780fdf advisory.
# Update to BIND 9.18.28
## Security Fixes
- A malicious DNS client that sent many queries over TCP but never read the responses could cause a server to respond slowly or not at all for other clients. This has been fixed. (CVE-2024-0760) [GL #4481]
- It is possible to craft excessively large resource records sets, which have the effect of slowing down database processing. This has been addressed by adding a configurable limit to the number of records that can be stored per name and type in a cache or zone database. The default is 100, which can be tuned with the new max-records-per-type option. [GL #497] [GL #3405]
It is possible to craft excessively large numbers of resource record types for a given owner name, which has the effect of slowing down database processing. This has been addressed by adding a configurable limit to the number of records that can be stored per name and type in a cache or zone database. The default is 100, which can be tuned with the new max-types-per-name option. (CVE-2024-1737) [GL #3403]
ISC would like to thank Toshifumi Sakaguchi who independently discovered and responsibly reported the issue to ISC. [GL #4548]
- Validating DNS messages signed using the SIG(0) protocol (RFC 2931) could cause excessive CPU load, leading to a denial-of-service condition. Support for SIG(0) message validation was removed from this version of named. (CVE-2024-1975) [GL #4480]
- Due to a logic error, lookups that triggered serving stale data and required lookups in local authoritative zone data could have resulted in an assertion failure. This has been fixed. (CVE-2024-4076) [GL #4507]
Potential data races were found in our DoH implementation, related to HTTP/2 session object management and endpoints set object management after reconfiguration. These issues have been fixed. [GL #4473]
ISC would like to thank Dzintars and Ivo from nic.lv for bringing this to our attention.
- When looking up the NS records of parent zones as part of looking up DS records, it was possible for named to trigger an assertion failure if serve-stale was enabled. This has been fixed. [GL #4661]
