Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.1.2.2017.805
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-805-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'bind9' package(s) announced via the DLA-805-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'bind9' package(s) announced via the DLA-805-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Several denial-of-service vulnerabilities (assertion failures) were discovered in BIND, a DNS server implementation.

CVE-2016-9131

A crafted upstream response to an ANY query could cause an assertion failure.

CVE-2016-9147

A crafted upstream response with self-contradicting DNSSEC data could cause an assertion failure.

CVE-2016-9444

Specially-crafted upstream responses with a DS record could cause an assertion failure.

These vulnerabilities predominantly affect DNS servers providing recursive service. Client queries to authoritative-only servers cannot trigger these assertion failures. These vulnerabilities are present whether or not DNSSEC validation is enabled in the server configuration.

For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version 1:9.8.4.dfsg.P1-6+nmu2+deb7u14.

We recommend that you upgrade your bind9 packages.
