Doc Text:
A flaw was found in BIND. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending maliciously-constructed packets to BIND servers configured for TKEY-based authentication via GSS-API (Generic Security Service Application Program Interface) tokens. This can lead to excessive memory consumption, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS) for the affected server.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-05-19 09:49:46 UTC
BIND servers that are configured to use TKEY-based authentication via GSS-API tokens are vulnerable to excessive memory consumption when receiving and processing maliciously-constructed packets. Typically these servers will be found in Active Directory integrated DNS deployments and/or Kerberos-secured DNS environments.
