New! Vulnerability Priority Rating (VPR)
Tenable calculates a dynamic VPR for every vulnerability. VPR combines vulnerability information with threat intelligence and machine learning algorithms to predict which vulnerabilities are most likely to be exploited in attacks. Read more about what VPR is and how it's different from CVSS.
VPR Score: 4.4
Synopsis
The remote name server is affected by a race condition vulnerability.
Description
According to its self-reported version, the instance of ISC BIND 9 running on the remote name server is between 9.11.0 and 9.11.7, 9.11.3-S1 and 9.11.7-S1, 9.12.0 and 9.12.4-P1, 9.13.x, 9.14.0 and 9.14.3, or 9.15 It is, therefore, affected by a race condition vulnerability, which may cause BIND to exit with an assertion failure when discarding malformed packets.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
Solution
Upgrade to ISC BIND version 9.11.8 / 9.11.8-S1 / 9.12.4-P2 / 9.14.3 / 9.15.1 or later.
