# CVE-2024-0760: bind: This update for bind fixes the following issues: Update to release 9.18.28 Security fixes: - CVE-2024-0760: Fixed... CVE-2024-0760 is fixed in 8 products on 1 platform, first by bind9 1:9.18.28-0ubuntu0.20.04.1, released July 22, 2024. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High. - Web page: https://patchblox.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-0760 - Priority: High - CVSS: 7.5 (Medium) - EPSS: 0.0468 - CISA KEV: not listed - Exploited (vendor report): no - Publicly disclosed: no - Published: Jul 22, 2024 ## Description This update for bind fixes the following issues: Update to release 9.18.28 Security fixes: - CVE-2024-0760: Fixed a flood of DNS messages over TCP may make the server unstable (bsc#1228255) - CVE-2024-1737: Fixed BIND's database will be slow if a very large number of RRs exist at the same name (bsc#1228256) - CVE-2024-1975: Fixed SIG(0) can be used to exhaust CPU resources (bsc#1228257) - CVE-2024-4076: Fixed assertion failure when serving both stale cache data and authoritative zone content (bsc#1228258) Changelog: * Command-line options for IPv4-only (named -4) and IPv6-only (named -6) modes are now respected for zone primaries, also-notify, and parental-agents. * An RPZ response’s SOA record TTL was set to 1 instead of the SOA TTL, if add-soa was used. This has been fixed. * When a query related to zone maintenance (NOTIFY, SOA) timed out close to a view shutdown (triggered e.g. by rndc reload), named could crash with an assertion failure. This has been fixed. * The statistics channel counters that indicated the number of currently connected TCP IPv4/IPv6 clients were not properly adjusted in certain failure scenarios. This has been fixed. * Some servers that could not be reached due to EHOSTDOWN or ENETDOWN conditions were incorrectly prioritized during server selection. These are now properly handled as unreachable. * On some systems the libuv call may return an error code when sending a TCP reset for a connection, which triggers an assertion failure in named. This error condition is now dealt with in a more graceful manner, by logging the incident and shutting down the connection. * Changes to listen-on statements were ignored on reconfiguration unless the port or interface address was changed, making it impossible to change a related listener transport type. That issue has been fixed. * A bug in the keymgr code unintentionally slowed down some DNSSEC key rollovers. This has been fixed. * Some ISO 8601 durations were accepted erroneously, leading to shorter durations than expected. This has been fixed * A regression in cache-cleaning code enabled memory use to grow significantly more quickly than before, until the configured max-cache-size limit was reached. This has been fixed. * Using rndc flush inadvertently caused cache cleaning to become less effective. This could ultimately lead to the configured max-cache-size limit being exceeded and has now been fixed. * The logic for cleaning up expired cached DNS records was tweaked to be more aggressive. This change helps with enforcing max-cache-ttl and max-ncache-ttl in a timely manner. * It was possible to trigger a use-after-free assertion when the overmem cache cleaning was initiated. This has been fixed. New Features: * A new option signatures-jitter has been added to dnssec-policy to allow signature expirations to be spread out over a period of time. * The statistics channel now includes counters that indicate the number of currently connected TCP IPv4/IPv6 clients. * Added RESOLVER.ARPA to the built in empty zones. Feature Changes: * DNSSEC signatures that are not valid because the current time falls outside the signature inception and expiration dates are skipped instead of causing an immediate validation failure. Security Fixes: * A malicious DNS client that sent many queries over TCP but never read the responses could cause a server to respond slowly or not at all for other clients. This has been fixed. (CVE-2024-0760) * It is possible to craft excessively large resource records sets, which have the effect of slowing down database processing. This has been addressed by adding a configurable limit to the number of records that can be stored per name and type in a cache or zone database. The default is 100, which can be tuned with the new max-records-per-type option. * It is possible to craft excessively large numbers of resource record types for a given owner name, which has the effect of slowing down database processing. This has been addressed by adding a configurable limit to the number of records that can be stored per name and type in a cache or zone database. The default is 100, which can be tuned with the new max-types-per-name option. (CVE-2024-1737) * Validating DNS messages signed using the SIG(0) protocol (RFC 2931) could cause excessive CPU load, leading to a denial-of-service condition. Support for SIG(0) message validation was removed from this version of named. (CVE-2024-1975) * Due to a logic error, lookups that triggered serving stale data and required lookups in local authoritative zone data could have resulted in an assertion failure. This has been fixed. * Potential data races were found in our DoH implementation, related to HTTP/2 session object management and endpoints set object management after reconfiguration. These issues have been fixed. * When looking up the NS records of parent zones as part of looking up DS records, it was possible for named to trigger an assertion failure if serve-stale was enabled. This has been fixed.
