description

Affected BIND 9 releases can terminate unexpectedly when handling certain DNS query traffic. An attacker may deny DNS service if recursive queries are allowed and the server uses at least two RPZ zones with different recursive-only settings.

mitigation

Restrict recursive-query access to trusted clients and avoid mixed recursive-only settings across RPZ zones. Monitor vendor updates and upgrade when a fixed release is published.
