Vulnerability Details

An issue was found in unbound, where the processing of responses coming from DNSSEC-signed zones using NSEC3 can cause CPU exhaustion on a DNSSEC-validating resolver. By flooding the target resolver with queries exploiting this flaw an attacker can significantly impair the resolver's performance, effectively denying legitimate clients access to the DNS resolution service. This issue is fixed in version 1.19.1.
