high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 403641

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- If named is configured to use Response Policy Zones (RPZ) an error processing some rule types can lead to
a condition where BIND will endlessly loop while handling a query. Affects BIND 9.9.10, 9.10.5,
9.11.0->9.11.1, 9.9.10-S1, 9.10.5-S1. (CVE-2017-3140)

- The BIND installer on Windows uses an unquoted service path which can enable a local user to achieve
privilege escalation if the host file system permissions allow this. Affects BIND 9.2.6-P2->9.2.9,
9.3.2-P1->9.3.6, 9.4.0->9.8.8, 9.9.0->9.9.10, 9.10.0->9.10.5, 9.11.0->9.11.1, 9.9.3-S1->9.9.10-S1,
9.10.5-S1. (CVE-2017-3141)

- An attacker who is able to send and receive messages to an authoritative DNS server and who has knowledge
of a valid TSIG key name may be able to circumvent TSIG authentication of AXFR requests via a carefully
constructed request packet. A server that relies solely on TSIG keys for protection with no other ACL
protection could be manipulated into: providing an AXFR of a zone to an unauthorized recipient or
accepting bogus NOTIFY packets. Affects BIND 9.4.0->9.8.8, 9.9.0->9.9.10-P1, 9.10.0->9.10.5-P1,
9.11.0->9.11.1-P1, 9.9.3-S1->9.9.10-S2, 9.10.5-S1->9.10.5-S2. (CVE-2017-3142)

- An attacker who is able to send and receive messages to an authoritative DNS server and who has knowledge
of a valid TSIG key name for the zone and service being targeted may be able to manipulate BIND into
accepting an unauthorized dynamic update. Affects BIND 9.4.0->9.8.8, 9.9.0->9.9.10-P1, 9.10.0->9.10.5-P1,
9.11.0->9.11.1-P1, 9.9.3-S1->9.9.10-S2, 9.10.5-S1->9.10.5-S2. (CVE-2017-3143)
