Medium 5.9
NSEC3 insecure-referral proof can use unrelated cached NSEC3 RRsets
A validly signed NSEC3 from an unrelated sibling zone may be accepted as an insecurity proof, downgrading a secure delegation and letting a forged unsigned answer through. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.11.0 through 9.18.50, 9.20.0 through 9.20.27, 9.21…

Message parser retains every identical singleton RDATA, enabling wire-to-work amplification
In a query response, an attacker may send `named` multiple copies of a record that should only exist once (such as an SOA record). If the RDATA is the same on all the copies, the record is appended to the in-memory RDATA set, which can cause increased memory …

Resource Exhaustion via Excessive DNSSEC Cryptographic Material Matching
A BIND recursive resolver may experience excessive resource consumption if it encounters large numbers of a particular kind of invalid DNSSEC record. Default limits on "max-records-per-type" and "max-types-per-name" help mitigate the exposure. This issue affe…

Medium 6.5
Unauthenticated IXFR deltas are applied to the live zone before TSIG verification
For a secondary zone with transfers restricted by TSIG, `named` may start to serve the data provided in a zone transfer before the final message with the TSIG signature arrives. This could allow an attacker that does not actually possess a valid TSIG signatur…

Medium 5.8
Out-of-zone database nodes can become authoritative zone cuts
A malformed zone may contain an NS or DNAME node above its origin, which `named` treats as a zone cut. If an attacker inserts a malformed zone into a BIND authoritative server (e.g., via zone transfer), queries for names inside the configured zone then lose a…

Medium 5.9
checkwildcard() accepts an out-of-zone NSEC as a wildcard-nonexistence proof
An inapplicable NSEC record may be accepted by a `named` resolver as proof that no wildcard exists, which could allow an attacker at the same or an upstream level of the zone name to mask the existence of a victim's wildcard record. This issue affects BIND 9 …

Medium 5.9
qpcache NOQNAME proof use-after-free crashes recursive resolver
An attacker may be able to cause a `named` resolver to abort. The attack requires inducing the victim resolver to send multiple queries for a DNSSEC-signed zone hosted by an authoritative server under the control of the attacker. If the auth responds with a p…

Medium 6.5
Key Record using PRIVATEDNS algorithm may lead to unexpected exit
If BIND encounters a particular invalid data structure in a DNS record, it will accept the invalid data, and may subsequently abort and exit. BIND will first need to store a DNS record for a key (KEY, DNSKEY, etc.). That key must specify a PRIVATEDNS algorith…

Medium 6.8
Incorrect acceptance of NSEC3 records
BIND may accept incorrect child-zone NSEC3 records as valid, which could allow an attacker to forge authenticated NXDOMAIN responses. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.18.0 through 9.18.50, 9.20.0 through 9.20.24, 9.21.0 through 9.21.23, 9.11.3-S1 through …

Medium 5.3CVE-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…

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 5.4
A stack use-after-return flaw in SIG(0) handling code may enable ACL bypass
A use-after-return vulnerability exists in the `named` server when handling DNS queries signed with SIG(0). Using a specially-crafted DNS request, an attacker may be able to cause an ACL to improperly (mis)match an IP address. In a default-allow ACL (denying …

Authenticated query containing a TKEY record may cause named to terminate unexpectedly
Under certain conditions, `named` may crash when processing a correctly signed query containing a TKEY record. The affected code can only be reached if an incoming request has a valid transaction signature (TSIG) from a key declared in the `named` configurati…

Insecure file permissions can result in confidential information leakage
In some cases, Kea log files or lease files may be world-readable. This issue affects Kea versions 2.4.0 through 2.4.1, 2.6.0 through 2.6.2, and 2.7.0 through 2.7.8.

Medium 6.1
Insecure handling of file paths allows multiple local attacks
Kea configuration and API directives can be used to overwrite arbitrary files, subject to permissions granted to Kea. Many common configurations run Kea as root, leave the API entry points unsecured by default, and/or place the control sockets in insecure pat…

Cleaning an ECS-enabled cache may cause excessive CPU load
If a resolver cache has a very large number of ECS records stored for the same name, the process of cleaning the cache database node for this name can significantly impair query performance. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.11.3-S1 through 9.11.37-S1, 9.1…

A flaw in mirror zone validity checking can allow zone data to be spoofed
Mirror zones are a BIND feature allowing recursive servers to pre-cache zone data provided by other servers. A mirror zone is similar to a zone of type secondary, except that its data is subject to DNSSEC validation before being used in answers, as if it had …
