Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.126314
Category:Denial of Service
Title:ISC BIND DoS Vulnerability (CVE-2022-3488) - Windows
Summary:ISC BIND is prone to a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability.
Description:Summary:
ISC BIND is prone to a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability.

Vulnerability Insight:
Processing of repeated responses to the same query, where both
responses contain ECS pseudo-options, but where the first is broken in some way, can cause BIND
to exit with an assertion failure.

'Broken' in this context is anything that would cause the resolver to reject the query response,
such as a mismatch between query and answer name.

Vulnerability Impact:
An attacker controlling a malicious nameserver could respond
with two responses in quick succession, each with a 'CLIENT-SUBNET' pseudo-option and where the
first is broken. Processing the second response after the first causes named to terminate.

Affected Software/OS:
ISC BIND versions 9.11.4-S1 through 9.11.37-S1, 19.16.8-S1
through 19.16.36-S1.

Solution:
Update to version 9.16.37-S1 or later.

CVSS Score:
7.8
