Title: | The remote BIND has dynamic updates enabled |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote nameserver has dynamic updates enabled. The dynamic updates let the bind administrator update the name service information dynamically. However, it is possible to trick bind to change the resource record for the zone is it serves. An attacker may use this flaw to hijack the traffic going the your servers and redirect it to somewhere else. Solution : If you use bind, add the option allow-update {none } in your named.conf to disable this feature entirely. Risk factor : Low |
