Description Sona Sarmadi 2016-04-12 08:19:06 UTC
Versions affected: 
9.10.0 -> 9.10.3-P3
Severity:  High
Exploitable:  Remotely

Description:

BIND 9.10 has preliminary support for DNS cookies (or source identity tokens), a proposed mechanism designed to allow lightweight transaction security between a querying party and a nameserver. An error in the BIND code implementing support for this optional feature permits a deliberately misconstructed packet containing multiple cookie options to cause named to terminate with an INSIST assertion failure in resolver.c if DNS cookie support is enabled in the server.  Only servers with DNS cookie support enabled at build time can be affected by this defect; in servers which do not have DNS cookie support selected any cookies encountered will be ignored as unknown option types.

Impact:

Servers which are built with DNS cookie support enabled are vulnerable to denial of service if an attacker can cause them to receive and process a response that contains multiple cookie options.

    bind: CVE-2016-2088
    
    Duplicate EDNS COOKIE options in a response could trigger an
    assertion failure: Fix with a backport.
    
    bind as built with the oe-core recipe is not at risk: Only servers
    which are built with DNS cookie support (--enable-sit) are vulnerable
    to denial of service.
