named in ISC BIND 9.x before 9.6.2-P3, 9.7.x before 9.7.2-P3, 9.4-ESV before 9.4-ESV-R4, and 9.6-ESV before 9.6-ESV-R3 does not properly determine the security status of an NS RRset during a DNSKEY algorithm rollover, which might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (DNSSEC validation error) by triggering a rollover.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 3 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - bind: key algorithm rollover may mark secure answers as insecure (CVE-2010-3614)

  - bind: handling of zero length rdata can cause named to terminate unexpectedly (CVE-2012-1667)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

The remote VMware ESX / ESXi host is missing a security-related patch.
It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including arbitrary code execution vulnerabilities, in several third-party components and libraries :

  - bind
  - pam
  - popt
  - rpm
  - rpm-libs
  - rpm-python
  - Service Location Protocol daemon (SLPD)

Adding certain types of signed negative responses to cache doesn't clear any matching RRSIG records already in cache. A subsequent lookup of the cached data can cause named to crash (CVE-2010-3613).

bind did not properly determine the security status of an NS RRset during a DNSKEY algorithm rollover, which might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (DNSSEC validation error) by triggering a rollover (CVE-2010-3614).

The remote Oracle Linux 5 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2010-0976 advisory.

    [30:9.3.6-4.P1.3]
    - fixes for CVE-2010-3762, CVE-2010-3613 and CVE-2010-3614

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Oracle Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote Oracle Linux 6 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ELSA-2010-0975 advisory.

    [32:9.7.0-5.P2.1]
    - fix CVE-2010-3613 and CVE-2010-3614

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Oracle Linux security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The security status of an NS RRset is not properly determined during a DNSKEY algorithm rollover which can allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

Signed negative responses and corresponding RRSIG records in the cache are not properly handled which can allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

It was discovered that named did not invalidate previously cached RRSIG records when adding an NCACHE record for the same entry to the cache. A remote attacker allowed to send recursive DNS queries to named could use this flaw to crash named. (CVE-2010-3613)

A flaw was found in the DNSSEC validation code in named. If named had multiple trust anchors configured for a zone, a response to a request for a record in that zone with a bad signature could cause named to crash. (CVE-2010-3762)

It was discovered that, in certain cases, named did not properly perform DNSSEC validation of an NS RRset for zones in the middle of a DNSKEY algorithm rollover. This flaw could cause the validator to incorrectly determine that the zone is insecure and not protected by DNSSEC. (CVE-2010-3614)

After installing the update, the BIND daemon (named) will be restarted automatically.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201206-01 (BIND: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in BIND. Please review the       CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in BIND, an implementation of the DNS protocol suite. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems :

  - CVE-2010-3762     When DNSSEC validation is enabled, BIND does not     properly handle certain bad signatures if multiple trust     anchors exist for a single zone, which allows remote     attackers to cause a denial of service (server crash)     via a DNS query.

  - CVE-2010-3614     BIND does not properly determine the security status of     an NS RRset during a DNSKEY algorithm rollover, which     may lead to zone unavailability during rollovers.

  - CVE-2010-3613     BIND does not properly handle the combination of signed     negative responses and corresponding RRSIG records in     the cache, which allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (server crash) via a query for cached     data.

In addition, this security update improves compatibility with previously installed versions of the bind9 package. As a result, it is necessary to initiate the update with 'apt-get dist-upgrade' instead of 'apt-get update'.

Update to 9.7.2-P3 release which contains various security fixes.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

This update also provides bind-dyndb-ldap and dnsperf packages rebuild against updated bind.

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Fedora security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

According to its self-reported version number, the remote installation of BIND is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - Failure to clear existing RRSIG records when a NO DATA     is negatively cached could cause subsequent lookups to     crash named. (CVE-2010-3613)

  - Named, when acting as a DNSSEC validating resolver,     could incorrectly mark zone data as insecure when the     zone being queried is undergoing a key algorithm     rollover. (CVE-2010-3614)

  - Using 'allow-query' in the 'options' or 'view'     statements to restrict access to authoritative zones has     no effect. (CVE-2010-3615)

It was discovered that Bind would incorrectly allow a ncache entry and a rrsig for the same type. A remote attacker could exploit this to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2010-3613)

It was discovered that Bind would incorrectly mark zone data as insecure when the zone is undergoing a key algorithm rollover.
(CVE-2010-3614).

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
