    Summary: bind9 vulnerabilities

    Details: It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled certain DNS messages with repeated singleton records such as SOA, CNAME, or DNAME records. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to use excessive memory, leading to a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.10. (CVE-2026-75029) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled cached DNSSEC proofs. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.10. (CVE-2026-19662) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled certain invalid DNSSEC records. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to use excessive CPU resources, leading to a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.10. (CVE-2026-19668) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled malformed answers on resolvers configured to use DNS64. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.10. (CVE-2026-19666) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled TKEY queries when no global options block was present. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.10. (CVE-2026-76163) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly verified TSIG signatures during zone transfers. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to inject unauthorized zone contents into a secondary server. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.10. (CVE-2026-19033) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled certain NSEC wildcard proofs. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to forge NXDOMAIN responses and hide the existence of wildcard records. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.10. (CVE-2026-19941) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled DNS-over-HTTPS requests with invalid SIG(0) records. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.10. (CVE-2026-77692) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled malformed zones containing NS or DNAME nodes above the zone origin. An attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to serve out-of-zone records as authoritative, leading to cache poisoning. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.10. (CVE-2026-78301) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled SVCB/HTTPS AliasMode records referencing large numbers of ServiceMode records. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to exhaust resources, leading to a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.10. (CVE-2026-81563) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly validated NSEC3 records from unrelated sibling zones. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to perform a DNSSEC downgrade attack and have forged unsigned answers accepted. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.10. (CVE-2026-77119) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled wildcard answers with mixed NSEC and NSEC3 proofs. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.10. (CVE-2026-80274) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled oversized negative cache records. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.10. (CVE-2026-19667) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled cached trees of SVCB/HTTPS AliasMode records. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to use excessive CPU resources, leading to a denial of service. This issue only affected Ubuntu 26.10. (CVE-2026-81736) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly limited the processing of compression pointers in inbound DNS messages. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to use excessive CPU and memory resources, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2026-19630) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly serialized access to shared GSS-TSIG security contexts. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to corrupt memory and execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2026-94300) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled redirect zones when used together with strict QNAME minimization. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-96888) It was discovered that Bind incorrectly handled certain RPZ configurations when processing queries with and without recursion. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-97313)
