Calendar Grey July 7, 2017
Dist Opensuse Esm H88
This release for Fedora tackles critical OpenSSL security vulnerabilities and includes guidelines for managing exposure risks.
An update that fixes two vulnerabilities is now available.

Description

This update for bind fixes the following issues:

- An attacker with the ability to send and receive messages to an

authoritative DNS server was able to circumvent TSIG authentication of

AXFR requests. A server that relied solely on TSIG keys for protection

could be manipulated into (1) providing an AXFR of a zone to an

unauthorized recipient and (2) accepting bogus Notify packets.

[bsc#1046554, CVE-2017-3142]

- An attacker who with the ability to send and receive messages to an

authoritative DNS server and who had knowledge of a valid TSIG key name

for the zone and service being targeted was able to manipulate BIND into

accepting an unauthorized dynamic update. [bsc#1046555, CVE-2017-3143]

This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-12-SP1:Update update project.
