What it is about

BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain) ist ein Open-Source-Softwarepaket, das einen Domain-Name-System-Server implementiert. Ein entfernter, anonymer Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in Internet Systems Consortium BIND ausnutzen, um Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen, Daten zu manipulieren, vertrauliche Informationen offenzulegen oder einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand auszulösen.

Under what conditions?

Over the network and without logging in. This is the most dangerous combination: attackers can scan reachable devices automatically.

What can happen in the worst case

An attacker could use the vulnerability to

  • Sicherheitsmaßnahmen zu umgehen
  • Daten zu manipulieren
  • vertrauliche Informationen offenzulegen oder einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand auszulösen

Am I affected?

Affected according to the BSI:

  • Debian Linux
  • Amazon Linux 2
  • Red Hat Enterprise Linux
  • Fedora Linux
  • IBM AIX
  • Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform
  • F5 BIG-IP
  • RESF Rocky Linux
  • SUSE Linux
  • SUSE openSUSE
  • Ubuntu Linux
  • Oracle Linux

and 6 more

The installed version is usually shown under “Help → About” or in the device’s admin interface.

What helps?

Update to at least:

  • Internet Systems Consortium BIND 9.20.26
  • Internet Systems Consortium BIND 9.21.24
  • Internet Systems Consortium BIND Supported Preview Edition 9.20.26-S1

Is the vulnerability already being exploited?

None of the CVEs is in the CISA catalogue of exploited vulnerabilities. That does not mean there are no attacks, only that none are documented.
