Summary
Header.pm in Net::DNS before 0.60, a Perl module, (1) generates predictable sequence IDs with a fixed increment and (2) can use the same starting ID for all child processes of a forking server, which allows remote attackers to spoof DNS responses, as originally reported for qpsmtp and spamassassin.

This could allow remote attackers to carry out DNS spoofing, leading to possible man-in-the-middle attacks. (CVE-2007-3377) Steffen Ullrich discovered that the Net::DNS Perl module did not correctly detect recursive compressed responses. A remote attacker could send a specially crafted packet, causing applications using Net::DNS to crash or monopolize CPU resources, leading to a denial of service. (CVE-2007-3409). Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 28084 published 2007-11-10 reporter Ubuntu Security Notice (C) 2007-2019 Canonical, Inc. / NASL script (C) 2018 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/28084 title Ubuntu 6.06 LTS / 6.10 : libnet-dns-perl vulnerabilities (USN-483-1) NASL family SuSE Local Security Checks NASL id SUSE_PERL-NET-DNS-4046.NASL description perl-Net-DNS used sequential IDs for DNS lookups which could cause problem with some programs like spamassassin. It potentially also simplified DNS spoofing attacks against perl-Net-DNS. (CVE-2007-3377) Additionally malformed compressed DNS packets could trigger an endless loop in perl-Net-DNS.

Steffen Ullrich discovered an error in the dn_expand() function which could lead to an endless loop. Impact : A remote attacker could send a specially crafted DNS request to the server which could result in a Denial of Service with an infinite recursion, or perform a cache poisoning attack. Workaround : There is no known workaround at this time. last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 25871 published 2007-08-13 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2007-2019 Tenable Network Security, Inc. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/25871 title GLSA-200708-06 : Net::DNS: Multiple vulnerabilities NASL family Debian Local Security Checks NASL id DEBIAN_DSA-1515.NASL description Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in libnet-dns-perl. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems : It was discovered that libnet-dns-perl generates very weak transaction IDs when sending queries (CVE-2007-3377 ). This update switches transaction ID generation to the Perl random generator, making prediction attacks more difficult. Compression loops in domain names resulted in an infinite loop in the domain name expander written in Perl (CVE-2007-3409 ). The Debian package uses an expander written in C by default, but this vulnerability has been addressed nevertheless. Decoding malformed A records could lead to a crash (via an uncaught Perl exception) of certain applications using libnet-dns-perl (CVE-2007-6341 ). last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 31426 published 2008-03-13 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2008-2019 and is owned by Tenable, Inc. or an Affiliate thereof. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/31426 title Debian DSA-1515-1 : libnet-dns-perl - several vulnerabilities NASL family CentOS Local Security Checks NASL id CENTOS_RHSA-2007-0674.NASL description Updated perl-Net-DNS packages that correct two security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 and 5.
