Description by
CVSS 4.0
6.3
MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
hickory-recursor versions 0.25.0 through 0.25.2
hickory-resolver versions 0.26.0 through 0.26.1
Description
The recursive resolver fails to apply out-of-bailiwick filtering to negative responses. This allows attackers to provide crafted negative responses containing out-of-bailiwick records, which can be used to facilitate cache poisoning and exploit DNSSEC verification flaws. Out-of-bailiwick filtering is a security mechanism that ensures a DNS server only accepts records that are authoritative for the zone being queried.
Recommendations
Update hickory-recursor to a version later than 0.25.2.
Update hickory-resolver to version 0.26.2 or later.
