Red Hat Security Advisory

 

Synopsis: Moderate: bind97 security update

Advisory ID: RHSA-2016:0074-01

Product: Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Advisory URL: https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2016-0074.html

Issue date: 2016-01-27

CVE Names: CVE-2015-8704

=====================================================================

 

1. Summary:

 

Updated bind97 packages that fix one security issue are now available for

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

 

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Moderate security

impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which

gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the

References section.

 

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

 

Red Hat Enterprise Linux (v. 5 server) - i386, ia64, ppc, s390x, x86_64

Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop Workstation (v. 5 client) - i386, x86_64

 

3. Description:

 

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.

 

A denial of service flaw was found in the way BIND processed certain

malformed Address Prefix List (APL) records. A remote, authenticated

attacker could use this flaw to cause named to crash. (CVE-2015-8704)

 

Red Hat would like to thank ISC for reporting this issue.

 

All bind97 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which

contain a backported patch to correct this issue. After installing the

update, the BIND daemon (named) will be restarted automatically.

 

4. Solution:

 

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata

relevant to your system have been applied.

5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):

 

1299364 - CVE-2015-8704 bind: specific APL data could trigger an INSIST in apl_42.c
