Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Bind that incorrectly handles certain crafted TCP streams. The vulnerability allows TCP connection slots to be consumed for an indefinite time frame via a specifically crafted TCP stream sent from a client. This flaw allows a remote attacker to send specially crafted TCP streams with 'keep-response-order' enabled that could cause connections to BIND to remain in CLOSE_WAIT status for an indefinite period, even after the client has terminated the connection. This issue results in BIND consuming resources, leading to a denial of service.

Description TEJ RATHI 2022-03-16 04:42:11 UTC
ISC recently discovered an issue in BIND that allows TCP connection slots to be consumed for an indefinite time frame via a specifically crafted TCP stream sent from a client. This issue is present in BIND 9.16.11 to 9.16.26 (including S editions), and 9.18.0.

This issue can only be triggered on BIND servers which have keep-response-order enabled, which is not the default configuration. The keep-response-order option is an ACL block, and as such, any hosts specified within it will be able to trigger this issue on affected.
