Vulnerabilities 9

  • Critical 9.1
    CVE-2026-81642 Public exploit

    Heap buffer overflow and possible Remote Code Execution when digesting DNSKEY

    In NLnet Labs Unbound up to and including 1.26.0, a vulnerability was found in the DNSSEC validator that enables denial of service and possible remote code execution as a result of digesting DNSKEYs. A DNSKEY with an owner compression pointer to its own RDATA…

  • High 8.4

    CNAME synthesis could lead to heap corruption

    In NLnet Labs Unbound up to and including 1.26.0, a vulnerability was found in that can progressively corrupt heap memory and under certain systems and compilation options could lead to remote code execution. The vulnerability starts when CNAME synthesis duri…

  • High 7.5

    Possible heap buffer overflow during DNSSEC canonicalization

    In NLnet Labs Unbound up to and including 1.26.0, a 255 length query name with a large TCP response can lead to a heap buffer overflow during the RRSet canonicalisation routine. This is caused by missing to add the first owner name into the buffer length chec…

  • Medium 6.5

    Use-after-free in DoQ stream output buffer on reset re-transmission

    NLnet Labs Unbound 1.22.0 up to and including 1.26.1, has a use-after-free vulnerability when compiled for DNS-over-QUIC support with '--with-libngtcp2'. Each DoQ stream owns an output buffer that holds the DNS response. ngtcp2's retransmission buffer keeps a…

  • Medium 5.9

    Use-after-free in DoH stream cleanup code path

    NLnet Labs Unbound 1.12.0 up to and including 1.26.0 has a use-after-free vulnerability when compiled for DNS-over-HTTPs support with '--with-libnghttp2'. During failure code paths (i.e., RPZ drop query, jostle due to heavy traffic), a dropped DoH stream brin…

  • Medium 5.3

    Possible degradation of service from continuous queries on the same TCP/DoT connection

    In NLnetLabs Unbound up to and including 1.26.0, a degradation of service vulnerability is present in the TCP/DoT reading procedure where there is no limit on consecutive reads. A malicious actor that can stream and sustain a rate of distinct uncached names o…

  • Medium 5.3

    Retrap: Novel Vulnerabilities to launch Algorithmic Complexity Attacks on DNSSEC

    Novel vulnerabilities to launch algorithmic complexity attacks on DNSSEC have been researched under the term 'ReTrap'. These result in degradation of service when malicious zones are used to serve the algorithmic complexity vulnerabilities. NLnet Labs Unbound…

  • Medium 4.4

    Possible ZONEMD verification bypass window

    In NLnet Labs Unbound 1.13.2 up to and including 1.26.1, a vulnerability in ZONEMD configured zones (zonemd-check: yes) which are located below (but not at) a trust anchor allow for an attack window where (tampered with) zone contents are served (or stored to…

  • Low 3.7

    'serve-expired' can bypass Unbound 'wait-limit'

    In NLnetLabs Unbound 1.20.0 up to and including 1.26.0, a vulnerability on the 'serve-expired' code path can cause a double decrement on the 'wait-limit' counter per client IP essentially bypassing one of the counter measures that was introduced for DNSBomb (…
