ISS X-Force Database: bind-dnssec-cache-poisoning(54416): ISC BIND DNSSEC cache poisoning

ISC BIND DNSSEC cache poisoning

bind-dnssec-cache-poisoning (54416)

Medium Risk

Description:

ISC BIND could allow a remote attacker to poison the DNS cache, caused by the inclusion of DNS records to the cache from the additional section of recursive client queries resposnes. If nameservers with DNSSEC validation are enabled, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to manipulate cache data and perform DNS Cache Poisoning.
