FEDORA-2024-c967c7d287
2024-02-29 01:56:37.413916

Name : unbound
Product : Fedora 38
Version : 1.19.1
Release : 1.fc38
URL :
https://nlnetlabs.nl/projects/unbound/
Summary : Validating, recursive, and caching DNS(SEC) resolver
Description :
Unbound is a validating, recursive, and caching DNS(SEC) resolver.
The C implementation of Unbound is developed and maintained by NLnet
Labs. It is based on ideas and algorithms taken from a java prototype
developed by Verisign labs, Nominet, Kirei and
ep.net.
Unbound is designed as a set of modular components, so that also
DNSSEC (secure DNS) validation and stub-resolvers (that do not run
as a server, but are linked into an application) are easily possible.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
Fix CVE-2023-50387, DNSSEC verification complexity can be exploited to exhaust
CPU resources and stall DNS resolvers.
Fix CVE-2023-50868, NSEC3 closest encloser proof can exhaust CPU.
