CVE-2023-3341 — A stack exhaustion flaw in control channel code may cause named to terminate unexpectedly

Affected: ISC BIND 9

The code that processes control channel messages sent to `named` calls certain functions recursively during packet parsing. Recursion depth is only limited by the maximum accepted packet size; depending on the environment, this may cause the packet-parsing code to run out of available stack memory, causing `named` to terminate unexpectedly. Since each incoming control channel message is fully parsed before its contents are authenticated, exploiting this flaw does not require the attacker to hold a valid RNDC key; only network access to the control channel's configured TCP port is necessary. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.2.0 through 9.16.43, 9.18.0 through 9.18.18, 9.19.0 through 9.19.16, 9.9.3-S1 through 9.16.43-S1, and 9.18.0-S1 through 9.18.18-S1.

USN-6390-1 — bind9 vulnerabilities

Affected: Ubuntu:20.04:LTS: bind9, Ubuntu:22.04:LTS: bind9

It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled certain control channel messages. A remote attacker with access to the control channel could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2023-3341)

Robert Story discovered that Bind incorrectly handled certain DNS-over-TLS queries. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, and Ubuntu 23.04. (CVE-2023-4236)
