Hickory-DNS Recursor 0.25.0-alpha.3 through 0.25.2 Glueless-NS Referral Amplification
The hickory-dns recursor in hickory-recursor 0.25.0-alpha.3 through 0.25.2 and hickory-resolver 0.26.0-alpha.1 before 0.26.2 iterates every out-of-bailiwick NS target lacking glue in a referral without any per-query work budget. Remote attackers can serve suc…

Hickory DNS 0.26.0-beta.1 before 0.26.2 Resource Exhaustion DoS via NameServerPool::try_send TC-Retry Loop
Hickory DNS hickory-resolver 0.26.0-beta.1 before 0.26.2 contains an unbounded retry loop in NameServerPool::try_send, which re-queues truncated (TC) responses without checking the answering transport or counting iterations. A malicious authoritative server r…

Hickory DNS 0.25.0-alpha.3 through 0.25.2 Query Amplification via Cyclic Referrals
Hickory DNS 0.25.0-alpha.3 through 0.25.2 contains a query amplification vulnerability in its recursive resolver, which mishandles cyclic sibling name server referrals that lack glue records. Attackers controlling two zones whose name servers reference each o…

When the `hickory-resolver` name server pool implementation receives an upstream response with the TC (truncated) header bit set, it re-queues the request to the same nameserver to retry with UDP transport disabled. However, the retry arm never inspects the t…

hickory-resolver before 0.26.2 DNSSEC Validation Bypass
hickory-resolver versions before 0.26.2 fail to propagate bogus DNSSEC proof states through the Resolver::lookup() and Resolver::lookup_ip() APIs, allowing invalid records to be returned as successful results. Attackers controlling the answering zone or posit…
