Summary

ISC BIND is prone to an information disclosure vulnerability.

Insight

Insight

An attacker who is able to send and receive messages to an authoritative DNS server, and who has knowledge of a valid TSIG key name, may be able to circumvent TSIG authentication of AXFR requests via a carefully constructed request packet. A server that relies solely on TSIG keys for protection with no other ACL protection could be manipulated into: - providing an AXFR of a zone to an unauthorized recipient, and/or - accepting bogus NOTIFY packets.
