  "summary": "CVE-2026-50045 is fixed in unbound on 1 platform, first by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-50045, released July 28, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.",
  "title": "\u0027max-global-quota\u0027 reset by DNSSEC validation restarts",
  "description": "In NLnet Labs Unbound 1.22.0 up to and including 1.25.1, a single client query for a deeply nested name under a DNSSEC-signed parent can cause Unbound to send more upstream packets per client query than the configured \u0027max-global-quota\u0027. This effectively bypasses a security configuration that limits upstream amplification traffic.",
