Description

named in ISC BIND 9.6.2 before 9.6.2-P3, 9.6-ESV before 9.6-ESV-R3, and 9.7.x before 9.7.2-P3 does not properly handle the combination of signed negative responses and corresponding RRSIG records in the cache, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) via a query for cached data.

Solution(s)

  • oracle-linux-upgrade-bind
  • oracle-linux-upgrade-bind-chroot
  • oracle-linux-upgrade-bind-devel
  • oracle-linux-upgrade-bind-libs
  • oracle-linux-upgrade-bind-utils
