CVE-2026-3592 | BDVDB-2026-334076 Detail
ISCBIND 9
Description#
BIND resolvers are vulnerable to an amplified resource consumption/exhaustion attack. If a victim resolver makes a query to a specially crafted zone, the resolver will consume disproportionate resources. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.11.0 through 9.16.50, 9.18.0 through 9.18.48, 9.20.0 through 9.20.22, 9.21.0 through 9.21.21, 9.11.3-S1 through 9.16.50-S1, 9.18.11-S1 through 9.18.48-S1, and 9.20.9-S1 through 9.20.22-S1.
Impact#
An attacker may be able to cause the resolver to consume disproportionate amounts of bandwidth in the attempt to resolve the name. Impairment of TCP may also be seen. The issue predominately affects recursive resolvers. Authoritative-only servers containing only trustworthy zones and names should be unaffected. If an authoritative server can be induced to look up an attack domain (e.g., if loading a zone from an untrusted source), it may be possible to trigger the issue.
