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

  - A vulnerability was discovered in DNS resolver component of knot resolver through version 3.2.0 before
    4.1.0 which allows remote attackers to bypass DNSSEC validation for non-existence answer. NXDOMAIN answer
    would get passed through to the client even if its DNSSEC validation failed, instead of sending a SERVFAIL
    packet. Caching is not affected by this particular bug but see CVE-2019-10191. (CVE-2019-10190)

  - A vulnerability was discovered in DNS resolver of knot resolver before version 4.1.0 which allows remote
    attackers to downgrade DNSSEC-secure domains to DNSSEC-insecure state, opening possibility of domain
    hijack using attacks against insecure DNS protocol. (CVE-2019-10191)

The remote Debian 10 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the dla-3795 advisory.

    Several security vulnerabilities have been discovered in knot-resolver, a     caching, DNSSEC-validating DNS resolver which may allow remote attackers to     bypass DNSSEC validation or cause a denial-of-service.

    For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version     3.2.1-3+deb10u2.

    We recommend that you upgrade your knot-resolver packages.

The remote Ubuntu 20.04 LTS host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the USN-7047-1 advisory.

    Vladimr unt discovered that Knot Resolver incorrectly handled input during DNSSEC validation. A     remote attacker could possibly use this issue to bypass certain validations. (CVE-2019-10190)

    Vladimr unt discovered that Knot Resolver incorrectly handled input during DNSSEC validation. A     remote attacker could possibly use this issue to downgrade DNSSEC-secure domains to a DNSSEC-insecure     state, resulting

    in a domain hijacking attack. (CVE-2019-10191)

    Vladimr unt discovered that Knot Resolver incorrectly handled certain

    DNS replies with many resource records. An attacker could possibly use

    this issue to consume system resources, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2019-19331)

    Lior Shafir, Yehuda Afek, and Anat Bremler-Barr discovered that Knot Resolver incorrectly handled certain     queries. A remote attacker could

    use this issue to perform an amplification attack directed at a target. (CVE-2020-12667)
