FreeBSD-SA-16:34.bind Security Advisory
|
|
The FreeBSD Project
|
|
|
|
Topic: BIND Remote Denial of Service vulnerability
|
|
|
|
Category: contrib
|
|
Module: bind
|
|
Announced: 2016-11-02
|
|
Credits: ISC
|
|
Affects: FreeBSD 9.x
|
|
Corrected: 2016-11-02 05:13:27 UTC (stable/9, 9.3-STABLE)
|
|
2016-11-02 07:24:34 UTC (releng/9.3, 9.3-RELEASE-p50)
|
|
CVE Name: CVE-2016-8864
|
|
|
|
For general information regarding FreeBSD Security Advisories,
|
|
including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the
|
|
following sections, please visit <URL:https://security.FreeBSD.org/>.
|
|
|
|
I. Background
|
|
|
|
BIND 9 is an implementation of the Domain Name System (DNS) protocols.
|
|
The named(8) daemon is an Internet Domain Name Server.
|
|
|
|
II. Problem Description
|
|
|
|
A defect in BIND's handling of responses containing a DNAME answer could
|
|
cause a resolver to exit after encountering an assertion failure in
|
|
db.c or resolver.c.
|
|
|
|
During processing of a recursive response that contains a DNAME record
|
|
in the answer section, BIND could stop executing after encountering an
|
|
assertion error in resolver.c.
|
|
|
|
III. Impact
|
|
|
|
A remote attacker who could cause a server to make a query deliberately
|
|
chosen to trigger the failed assertions could cause named(8) to stop,
|
|
resulting in a Denial of Service condition to its clients.
|
|
|
|
IV. Workaround
|
|
|
|
No workaround is available, but hosts not running named(8) recursive
|
|
servers are not affected.
|
|
|
|
V. Solution
|
|
|
|
Perform one of the following:
|
|
|
|
1) Upgrade your vulnerable system to a supported FreeBSD stable or
|
|
release / security branch (releng) dated after the correction date.
|
|
|
|
The named service has to be restarted after the update. A reboot is
|
|
recommended but not required.
|
|
|
|
2) To update your vulnerable system via a binary patch:
|
|
|
|
Systems running a RELEASE version of FreeBSD on the i386 or amd64
|
|
platforms can be updated via the freebsd-update(8) utility:
|
|
|
|
# freebsd-update fetch
|
|
# freebsd-update install
|
|
|
|
The named service has to be restarted after the update. A reboot is
|
|
recommended but not required.
|
|
|
|
3) To update your vulnerable system via a source code patch:
|
|
|
|
The following patches have been verified to apply to the applicable
|
|
FreeBSD release branches.
|
|
|
|
a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the
|
|
detached PGP signature using your PGP utility.
|
|
|
|
# fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-16:34/bind.patch
|
|
# fetch https://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-16:34/bind.patch.asc
|
|
# gpg --verify bind.patch.asc
|
|
|
|
b) Apply the patch. Execute the following commands as root:
|
|
|
|
# cd /usr/src
|
|
# patch < /path/to/patch
|
|
|
|
c) Recompile the operating system using buildworld and installworld as
|
|
described in <URL:https://www.FreeBSD.org/handbook/makeworld.html>.
|
|
|
|
Restart the named service, or reboot the system.
|
|
|
|
VI. Correction details
|
|
|
|
The following list contains the correction revision numbers for each
|
|
affected branch.
|
|
|
|
Branch/path Revision
|

|
|
|
|
To see which files were modified by a particular revision, run the
|
|
following command, replacing NNNNNN with the revision number, on a
|
|
machine with Subversion installed:
|
|
|
|
# svn diff -cNNNNNN --summarize svn://svn.freebsd.org/base
|
|
|
|
Or visit the following URL, replacing NNNNNN with the revision number:
