Security Bulletin
This security bulletin contains one medium risk vulnerability.
EUVDB-ID: #VU61422
Risk: Medium
CVSSv4.0: 2.1 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:H/SA:N/E:U/U:Green]
CVE-ID: CVE-2021-25220
CWE-ID:
CWE-350 - Reliance on Reverse DNS Resolution for a Security-Critical Action
Exploit availability: No
DescriptionThe vulnerability allows a remote attacker to poison DNS cache.
The vulnerability exists due to an error in DNS forwarder implementation. When using forwarders, bogus NS records supplied by, or via, those forwarders may be cached and used by named
if it needs to recurse for any reason, causing it to obtain and pass on potentially incorrect answers. The cache could become poisoned with incorrect records leading to
queries being made to the wrong servers, which might also result in
false information being returned to clients.
Update the affected package bind to the latest version.
