VAR-200406-0052

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-03 22:38

The DNS proxy (DNSd) for multiple Symantec Gateway Security products allows remote attackers to poison the DNS cache via a malicious DNS server query response that contains authoritative or additional records. It is reported that dnsd is prone to a cache poisoning vulnerability. Dnsd does not ensure that the data returned from a remote DNS server contains related information about the requested records. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to deny service to legitimate users by redirecting traffic to inappropriate hosts. Man-in-the-middle attacks, impersonation of sites, and other attacks may be possible. Symantec Enterprise Firewall is an enterprise-class firewall that includes DNSD proxy. Symantec Enterprise Firewall has issues with its implementation of DNSD, which could be exploited by remote attackers for man-in-the-middle, fake site, or various other attacks. An attacker can control the DNS server and return a malicious response, resulting in the insertion of a fake DNS entry in the target system, thereby attacking Attackers can carry out attacks such as man-in-the-middle attacks/denial of service/social engineering
