CVE-2017-3143

An attacker who is able to send and receive messages to an authoritative DNS server and who has knowledge of a valid TSIG key name for the zone and service being targeted may be able to manipulate BIND into accepting an unauthorized dynamic update. Affects BIND 9.4.0->9.8.8, 9.9.0->9.9.10-P1, 9.10.0->9.10.5-P1, 9.11.0->9.11.1-P1, 9.9.3-S1->9.9.10-S2, 9.10.5-S1->9.10.5-S2.

It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled certain malformed responses to an ANY query. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service (CVE-2016-9131).

It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled certain malformed responses to an ANY query. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service (CVE-2016-9147).

It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled certain malformed DS record responses. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service (CVE-2016-9444).

An error in handling certain queries can cause an assertion failure when a server is using the nxdomain-redirect feature to cover a zone for which it is also providing authoritative service. A vulnerable server could be intentionally stopped by an attacker if it was using a configuration that met the criteria for the vulnerability and if the attacker could cause it to accept a query that possessed the required attributes (CVE-2016-9778).

It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled rewriting certain query responses when using both DNS64 and RPZ. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service (CVE-2017-3135).

Oleg Gorokhov discovered that in some situations, Bind did not properly handle DNS64 queries. An attacker could use this to cause a denial of service (CVE-2017-3136).

It was discovered that the resolver in Bind made incorrect assumptions about ordering when processing responses containing a CNAME or DNAME. An attacker could use this cause a denial of service (CVE-2017-3137).

Mike Lalumiere discovered that in some situations, Bind did not properly handle invalid operations requested via its control channel. An attacker with access to the control channel could cause a denial of service (CVE-2017-3138).

Clément Berthaux discovered that Bind did not correctly check TSIG authentication for zone transfer requests. An attacker could use this to improperly transfer entire zones (CVE-2017-3142).

Clément Berthaux discovered that Bind did not correctly check TSIG authentication for zone update requests. An attacker could use this to improperly perform zone updates (CVE-2017-3143).

This update for bind fixes the following issues:

• An attacker with the ability to send and receive messages to an authoritative DNS server was able to circumvent TSIG authentication of AXFR requests. A server that relied solely on TSIG keys for protection could be manipulated into (1) providing an AXFR of a zone to an unauthorized recipient and (2) accepting bogus Notify packets.

• An attacker who with the ability to send and receive messages to an authoritative DNS server and who had knowledge of a valid TSIG key name for the zone and service being targeted was able to manipulate BIND into accepting an unauthorized dynamic update. [bsc#1046555, CVE-2017-3143]
