Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'pdns-recursor' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2020-0393 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'pdns-recursor' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2020-0393 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
An issue has been found in PowerDNS Recursor before 4.1.18, 4.2.x before 4.2.5,
and 4.3.x before 4.3.5. A remote attacker can cause the cached records for a
given name to be updated to the Bogus DNSSEC validation state, instead of
their actual DNSSEC Secure state, via a DNS ANY query. This results in a
denial of service for installation that always validate (dnssec=validate),
and for clients requesting validation when on-demand validation is enabled
(dnssec=process). (CVE-2020-25829)

Affected Software/OS:
'pdns-recursor' package(s) on Mageia 7.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
