CVE-2011-2464

Vulnerabilidad no especificada en ISC BIND 9 v9.6.x antesw de v9.6-ESV-R4-P3, v9.7.x antes de v9.7.3-P3, y v9.8.x antes de v9.8.0-P4, permite a usuarios remotos provocar una denegación de servicio a través de una petición UPDATE manipulada.

A defect in the affected BIND 9 versions allows an attacker to remotely cause the "named" process to exit using a specially crafted packet. This defect affects both recursive and authoritative servers. The code location of the defect makes it impossible to protect BIND using ACLs configured within named.conf or by disabling any features at compile-time or run-time. A remote attacker would need to be able to send a specially crafted packet directly to a server running a vulnerable version of BIND. There is also the potential for an indirect attack via malware that is inadvertently installed and run, where infected machines have direct access to an organization's nameservers. Versions affected are 9.6.3, 9.6-ESV-R4, 9.6-ESV-R4-P1, 9.6-ESV-R5b1 9.7.0, 9.7.0-P1, 9.7.0-P2, 9.7.1, 9.7.1-P1, 9.7.1-P2, 9.7.2, 9.7.2-P1, 9.7.2-P2, 9.7.2-P3, 9.7.3, 9.7.3-P1, 9.7.3-P2, 9.7.4b1 9.8.0, 9.8.0-P1, 9.8.0-P2, 9.8.0-P3, and 9.8.1b1.
