Security Bulletin

This security bulletin contains information about 2 vulnerabilities.

1) Use of a broken or risky cryptographic algorithm

EUVDB-ID: #VU31828

Risk: Medium

CVSSv3.1: 4.3 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2018-5745

CWE-ID: CWE-327 - Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote privileged user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

"managed-keys" is a feature which allows a BIND resolver to automatically maintain the keys used by trust anchors which operators configure for use in DNSSEC validation. Due to an error in the managed-keys feature it is possible for a BIND server which uses managed-keys to exit due to an assertion failure if, during key rollover, a trust anchor's keys are replaced with keys which use an unsupported algorithm. Versions affected: BIND 9.9.0 -> 9.10.8-P1, 9.11.0 -> 9.11.5-P1, 9.12.0 -> 9.12.3-P1, and versions 9.9.3-S1 -> 9.11.5-S3 of BIND 9 Supported Preview Edition. Versions 9.13.0 -> 9.13.6 of the 9.13 development branch are also affected. Versions prior to BIND 9.9.0 have not been evaluated for vulnerability to CVE-2018-5745.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.

2) Information disclosure

EUVDB-ID: #VU17828

Risk: Low

CVSSv3.1: 4.6 [CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N/E:U/RL:O/RC:C]

CVE-ID: CVE-2019-6465

CWE-ID: CWE-200 - Information exposure

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to obtain potentially sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to controls for zone transfers may not be properly applied to Dynamically Loadable Zones (DLZs) if the zones are writable. A remote attacker can request and receive a zone transfer of a DLZ even when not permitted to do so by the allow-transfer ACL.

Mitigation

Install updates from vendor's website.
