Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-201910-6
=========================================
Severity: High
Date : 2019-10-11
CVE-ID : CVE-2019-16866
Package : unbound
Type : denial of service
Remote : Yes
Link : https://security.archlinux.org/AVG-1042
Summary
=======
The package unbound before version 1.9.4-1 is vulnerable to denial of
service.
Resolution
==========
Upgrade to 1.9.4-1.
# pacman -Syu "unbound>=1.9.4-1"
The problem has been fixed upstream in version 1.9.4.
Workaround
==========
None.
Description
===========
Due to an error in parsing NOTIFY queries, it is possible for Unbound
from 1.7.1 up to and including 1.9.3 to continue processing malformed
queries and may ultimately result in a pointer dereference in
uninitialized memory. This results in a crash of the Unbound daemon.
Impact
======
A remote attacker might be able to crash the Unbound server via crafted
NOTIFY queries.
