| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in Hickory DNS. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability to carry out a Domain Name System (DNS) cache poisoning attack, commonly referred to as a ghost domain attack, by repeatedly querying a domain's Name Server (NS) records. Because the recursor reuses cached child-side name server records during resolution, stale records remain cached indefinitely, allowing name servers whose authority was revoked by the parent domain to continue providing unauthorized responses.
