Category:	Mageia Linux Local Security Checks
Title:	Mageia: Security Advisory (MGASA-2019-0122)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'pdns' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2019-0122 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'pdns' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2019-0122 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Updated pdns packages fix security vulnerability: An issue has been found in PowerDNS Authoritative Server when the HTTP remote backend is used in RESTful mode (without post=1 set), allowing a remote user to cause the HTTP backend to connect to an attacker-specified host instead of the configured one, via a crafted DNS query. This can be used to cause a denial of service by preventing the remote backend from getting a response, content spoofing if the attacker can time its own query so that subsequent queries will use an attacker-controlled HTTP server instead of the configured one, and possibly information disclosure if the Authoritative Server has access to internal servers (CVE-2019-3871). Affected Software/OS: 'pdns' package(s) on Mageia 6. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 6.5 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:P/I:P/A:P
