Descriptions

PowerDNS (aka pdns) Authoritative Server before 3.4.10 does not properly handle a . (dot) inside labels, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (backend CPU consumption) via a crafted DNS query.

PowerDNS (también conocido como pdns) Authoritative Server en versiones anteriores a 3.4.10 no maneja adecuadamente unas etiquetas del interior . (dot), lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (consumo de CPU backend) a través de una consulta DNS manipulada.
