Important: bind security update

Published Nov 2, 2026 · Updated Nov 2, 2026

Ecosystem: AlmaLinux

Summary

The Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) is an implementation of the Domain Name System (DNS) protocols. BIND includes a DNS server (named); a resolver library (routines for applications to use when interfacing with DNS); and tools for verifying that the DNS server is operating correctly.

Security Fix(es):

* bind: BIND: Denial of Service via unbounded processing of crafted DNS messages (CVE-2026-19630)
* bind: bind: Arbitrary code execution via GSS-TSIG UDP message replay (CVE-2026-94300)
* bind: bind: Denial of Service via assertion failure during redirect processing (CVE-2026-96888)
* bind: bind: Denial of service via assertion failure in RPZ query processing (CVE-2026-97313)

For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

    CVE-2026-94300 Public exploit

    Concurrent GSS-TSIG messages corrupt memory

    Replaying GSS-TSIG signed UDP messages can result in memory corruption in "`named`". An attacker who can capture a previously signed UDP message can replay it while the negotiated TSIG key is still valid. By also sending crafted queries to a zone the attacker…

    CVE-2026-19630

    Amplified resource exhaustion in inbound message processing

    In a BIND resolver, inbound DNS protocol messages with a particular structure will result in additional processing, with no limit imposed by BIND. A DNS message with a maliciously large number of such structures will cause BIND to consume disproportionate amo…

    CVE-2026-96888

    Named may terminate unexpectedly when a redirect zone is used with strict QNAME minimization

    A BIND resolver that is configured with both a "redirect" zone and "qname-minimization strict" may abort with an assertion failure while processing the redirect. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.16.0 through 9.18.50, 9.20.0 through 9.20.29, 9.21.0 through…

    Specific RPZ configurations and query patterns may result in an unexpected exit

    A recursive BIND server that receives a query with recursion desired (RD=1) followed by a non-recursive query (RD=0) may exit with an assertion failure, resulting in a denial of service. To be vulnerable, the BIND server must allow recursive queries and have …
