Potential 0-day on Bind 9

[Domenico]

Er is heel wat aan de hand op dit moment. Misschien snel zelf even je servers (Bind) checken.

Internet System Consortium has published an alert earlier as they are investigating a potential vulnerability on Bind 9. There are reports of the DNS server software crashing while generating log entry - "INSIST(! dns_rdataset_isassociated(sigrdataset))" The details on this is rather limited at this point, aside from DoS effect, it's unknown whether code execution is possible at this point.

Update:
ISC would appreciate network captures of active attacks against this BIND vulnerabiliy. Please submit to us via Contact Form.

Update 2:
Patches are now available:

https://www.isc.org/software/bind/ad.../cve-2011-4313

Update 3:
There have been a number of reports of people being affected. If you are one and you have some packets to share it would be appreciated if you can share them. We'll anonymise any identifying info.

Update 4:
Several honeypots have been hit with unsolicited recursive DNS queries. Whilst the query itself is normal, it is possible that this is part of a scan looking for servers that may be vulnerable. If you happen to be monitoring your DNS and you notice a recursive request let us know. if you can share information that would be great. Ideally a capture, but the source and the domain requested will be enough for now.

Thanks

cPanel servers (standard install) hebben hier geen last van.

By default cPanel servers don't have recursive queries turned on. Without recursive queries, you can't get cache poisoning.

For that reason this Security Advisory does not apply to a standard/ stock cPanel server.

Zie nu ook dat http://www.webhostingtalk.nl/beveili...crash-dos.html (FYI: Bind bug (crash - DoS)) er al was.
