Description:Summary:

Vulnerability Insight:
Security Fixes:
* It is possible to craft excessively large numbers of resource
record types for a given owner name, which has the effect of
slowing down database processing. This has been addressed by
adding a configurable limit to the number of records that can
be stored per name and type in a cache or zone database. The
default is 100, which can be tuned with the new
max-types-per-name option. (CVE-2024-1737, bsc#1228256)
* Validating DNS messages signed using the SIG(0) protocol (RFC
2931) could cause excessive CPU load, leading to a
denial-of-service condition. Support for SIG(0) message
validation was removed from this version of named.
(CVE-2024-1975, bsc#1228257)
* When looking up the NS records of parent zones as part of
looking up DS records, it was possible for named to trigger an
assertion failure if serve-stale was enabled. This has been
fixed. (CVE-2024-4076, bsc#1228258)

Affected Software/OS:
'bind' package(s) on openSUSE Leap 15.5.
