Moderate: bind security, bug fix, and enhancement update

Published Nov 13, 2026 · Updated Nov 13, 2026

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: Amplification vulnerabilities via self-pointed glue records (CVE-2026-3592)

* bind: Unbounded resend loop in BIND 9 resolver (CVE-2026-5950)

Bug Fix(es) and Enhancement(s):

* [BUG] Bind DNS forwarder when configured to allow stale answers fails to provide resonse of 3 layer CNAME when TTL abruptly changes to 0 [rhel-10] (JIRA:Rocky Linux-142289)

* [rhel-10] Bind 9.18.33 DNSSEC Key Rollover with KASP Causes ZSK Key To Be Removed Prematurely (JIRA:Rocky Linux-144421)

* bind: New root trust anchor key for DNSSEC [rhel-10.3] (JIRA:Rocky Linux-255748)

Vulnerabilities 2

  • Medium 5.3

    Amplification vulnerabilities via self-pointed glue records

    BIND resolvers are vulnerable to an amplified resource consumption/exhaustion attack. If a victim resolver makes a query to a specially crafted zone, the resolver will consume disproportionate resources. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.11.0 through 9.16.…

  • Medium 5.3
    CVE-2026-5950 Public exploit

    Unbounded resend loop in BIND 9 resolver

    An unbounded resend loop vulnerability exists in the BIND 9 resolver state machine during bad-server handling, enabling a remote unauthenticated attacker to cause severe resource exhaustion by sending queries that trigger specific retry conditions. This issue…
