Fedora 30: FEDORA-2019-fdb50c675d Moderate: Knot Resolver Cache Poisoning

fedora
Calendar Grey July 18, 2019
Dist Fedora Esm H88
Addresses input verification vulnerabilities in Knot Resolver, enabling potential cache exploitation and evasion of DNSSEC checks.
- fixes security issues CVE-2019-10190 and CVE-2019-10191 -

Summary

The Knot Resolver is a DNSSEC-enabled caching full resolver implementation

written in C and LuaJIT, including both a resolver library and a daemon.

Modular architecture of the library keeps the core tiny and efficient, and

provides a state-machine like API for extensions.

The package is pre-configured as local caching resolver.

To start using it, start a single kresd instance:

$ systemctl start kresd@1.service

* Wed Jul 10 2019 Tomas Krizek - 4.1.0-1

- update to new upstream version 4.1.0

- add kres-cache-gc.service

* Wed May 29 2019 Tomas Krizek - 4.0.0.-1

- rebase to new upstream release 4.0.0

- bump Knot DNS libraries to 2.8 (ABI compat)

- use new upstream build system - meson

- add knot-resolver-module-http package along with new lua dependecies
