"PowerDNS Team reports :

CVE-2020-10995: An issue in the DNS protocol has been found that allow
malicious parties to use recursive DNS services to attack third party
authoritative name servers. The attack uses a crafted reply by an
authoritative name server to amplify the resulting traffic between the
recursive and other authoritative name servers. Both types of service
can suffer degraded performance as an effect.

CVE-2020-12244: An issue has been found in PowerDNS Recursor 4.1.0
through 4.3.0 where records in the answer section of a NXDOMAIN
response lacking an SOA were not properly validated in
SyncRes::processAnswer. This would allow an attacker in position of
man-in-the-middle to send a NXDOMAIN answer for a name that does
exist, bypassing DNSSEC validation.

CVE-2020-10030: An issue has been found in PowerDNS Authoritative
Server allowing an attacker with enough privileges to change the
system's hostname to cause disclosure of uninitialized memory content
via a stack-based out-of-bounds read. It only occurs on systems where
gethostname() does not null-terminate the returned string if the
hostname is larger than the supplied buffer. Linux systems are not
affected because the buffer is always large enough. OpenBSD systems
are not affected because the returned hostname is always
null-terminated. Under some conditions this issue can lead to the
writing of one null-byte out-of-bounds on the stack, causing a denial
of service or possibly arbitrary code execution."
