EulerOS Virtualization 3.0.2.0 : bind (EulerOS-SA-2022-1685)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 160706

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS Virtualization host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the versions of the bind packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

- In BIND 9.3.0 -> 9.11.35, 9.12.0 -> 9.16.21, and versions 9.9.3-S1 -> 9.11.35-S1 and 9.16.8-S1 -> 9.16.21-S1 of BIND Supported Preview Edition, as well as release versions 9.17.0 -> 9.17.18 of the BIND 9.17 development branch, exploitation of broken authoritative servers using a flaw in response processing can cause degradation in BIND resolver performance. The way the lame cache is currently designed makes it possible for its internal data structures to grow almost infinitely, which may cause significant delays in client query processing. (CVE-2021-25219)

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

Solution

Update the affected bind packages.
