ALSA-2024:1750 — Important: unbound security update

Affected: AlmaLinux:9: python3-unbound, AlmaLinux:9: unbound, AlmaLinux:9: unbound-devel, AlmaLinux:9: unbound-libs

The unbound packages provide a validating, recursive, and caching DNS or DNSSEC resolver.

Security Fix(es):

* A vulnerability was found in Unbound due to incorrect default permissions, allowing any process outside the unbound group to modify the unbound runtime configuration. The default combination of the "control-use-cert: no" option with either explicit or implicit use of an IP address in the "control-interface" option could allow improper access. If a process can connect over localhost to port 8953, it can alter the configuration of unbound.service. This flaw allows an unprivileged local process to manipulate a running instance, potentially altering forwarders, allowing them to track all queries forwarded by the local resolver, and, in some cases, disrupting resolving altogether.

To mitigate the vulnerability, a new file "/etc/unbound/conf.d/remote-control.conf" has been added and included in the main unbound configuration file, "unbound.conf". The file contains two directives that should limit access to unbound.conf:

control-interface: "/run/unbound/control" control-use-cert: "yes"

For details about these directives, run "man unbound.conf".

Updating to the version of unbound provided by this advisory should, in most cases, address the vulnerability. To verify that your configuration is not vulnerable, use the "unbound-control status | grep control" command. If the output contains "control(ssl)" or "control(namedpipe)", your configuration is not vulnerable.…

OESA-2024-1210 — unbound security update

Affected: openEuler:20.03-LTS-SP1: unbound, openEuler:20.03-LTS-SP4: unbound, openEuler:22.03-LTS: unbound, openEuler:22.03-LTS-SP1: unbound, openEuler:22.03-LTS-SP2: unbound, openEuler:22.03-LTS-SP3: unbound

Unbound is a validating, recursive, caching DNS resolver. It is designed to be fast and lean and incorporates modern features based on open standards. To help increase online privacy, Unbound supports DNS-over-TLS which allows clients to encrypt their communication. Unbound is available for most platforms such as FreeBSD, OpenBSD, NetBSD, MacOS, Linux and Microsoft Windows. Unbound is a totally free, open source software under the BSD license. It doesn't make custom builds or provide specific features to paying customers only. Security Fix(es): Certain DNSSEC aspects of the DNS protocol (in RFC 4033, 4034, 4035, 6840, and related RFCs) allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via one or more DNSSEC responses, aka the "KeyTrap" issue. One of the concerns is that, when there is a zone with many DNSKEY and RRSIG records, the protocol specification implies that an algorithm must evaluate all combinations of DNSKEY and RRSIG records.(CVE-2023-50387) The Closest Encloser Proof aspect of the DNS protocol (in RFC 5155 when RFC 9276 guidance is skipped) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption for SHA-1 computations) via DNSSEC responses in a random subdomain attack, aka the "NSEC3" issue. The RFC 5155 specification implies that an algorithm must perform thousands of iterations of a hash function in certain situations.(CVE-2023-50868) A vulnerability was found in Unbound due to incorrect de…

WID-SEC-W-2024-0844 — Red Hat Enterprise Linux: Schwachstelle in unbound

Ein entfernter, anonymer Angreifer kann eine Schwachstelle in Red Hat Enterprise Linux ausnutzen, um eine laufende Instanz zu manipulieren, Informationen offenzulegen oder einen Denial-of-Service auszulösen.
