COMPLETE Summary
Race condition in resolver.c in named in ISC BIND 9.9.8 before 9.9.8-P2 and 9.10.3 before 9.10.3-P2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (INSIST assertion failure and daemon exit) via unspecified vectors.
Vulnerable Configurations
Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE)
Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC)
- Leveraging Race Conditions This attack targets a race condition occurring when multiple processes access and manipulate the same resource concurrently and the outcome of the execution depends on the particular order in which the access takes place. The attacker can leverage a race condition by "running the race", modifying the resource and modifying the normal execution flow. For instance a race condition can occur while accessing a file, the attacker can trick the system by replacing the original file with his version and cause the system to read the malicious file.
- Leveraging Time-of-Check and Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) Race Conditions This attack targets a race condition occurring between the time of check (state) for a resource and the time of use of a resource. The typical example is the file access. The attacker can leverage a file access race condition by "running the race", meaning that he would modify the resource between the first time the target program accesses the file and the time the target program uses the file. During that period of time, the attacker could do something such as replace the file and cause an escalation of privilege.

NASL family Amazon Linux Local Security Checks NASL id ALA_ALAS-2015-631.NASL description An error in the parsing of incoming responses allows some records with an incorrect class to be be accepted by BIND instead of being rejected as malformed. This can trigger a REQUIRE assertion failure when those records are subsequently cached. Intentional exploitation of this condition is possible and could be used as a denial-of-service vector against servers performing recursive queries. (CVE-2015-8000) CVE-2015-8461 was also issued today for bind, but the Amazon Linux AMI last seen 2020-06-01 modified 2020-06-02 plugin id 87380 published 2015-12-16 reporter This script is Copyright (C) 2015-2018 Tenable Network Security, Inc. source https://www.tenable.com/plugins/nessus/87380 title Amazon Linux AMI : bind (ALAS-2015-631)
