3. Description:
The Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) is an implementation of the Domain
Name System (DNS) protocols. BIND includes a DNS server (named); a resolver
library (routines for applications to use when interfacing with DNS); and
tools for verifying that the DNS server is operating correctly.
Security Fix(es):
* bind: BIND does not sufficiently limit the number of fetches performed
when processing referrals (CVE-2020-8616)
* bind: A logic error in code which checks TSIG validity can be used to
trigger an assertion failure in tsig.c (CVE-2020-8617)
For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS
score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE
page(s) listed in the References section.
4. Solution:
For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes
described in this advisory, refer to:
