Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
The product name cannot be determined (affected versions not specified)
Description
An attacker can cause outgoing TCP connections to a backend to remain stuck until a timeout occurs rather than being released immediately by sending IXFR (Incremental Zone Transfer) queries. This behavior can lead to a denial of service if the system reaches the limit of concurrent connections to the backend or exhausts available file descriptors.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
