CVE-2026-75029

MEDIUM 5.3

Published 2026-09-16 · Last modified 2026-09-17

In a query response, an attacker may send `named` multiple copies of a record that should only exist once (such as an SOA record). If the RDATA is the same on all the copies, the record is appended to the in-memory RDATA set, which can cause increased memory usage of the negative cache and possibly lead to other memory attack vectors. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.11.0 through 9.18.50, 9.20.0 through 9.20.27, 9.21.0 through 9.21.25, 9.11.3-S1 through 9.18.50-S1, and 9.20.9-S1 through 9.20.27-S1.

    • workaround: To mitigate this issue, restrict network access to the BIND `named` service to only trusted clients and networks. Implement firewall rules to limit incoming UDP/TCP port 53 traffic to known, legitimate sources. This reduces the attack surface by preventing untrusted external entities from sending crafted query responses.
