Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2018-5736 (CCN-143554)

Assigned:2018-05-18
Published:2018-05-18
Updated:2019-10-03
Summary:An error in zone database reference counting can lead to an assertion failure if a server which is running an affected version of BIND attempts several transfers of a slave zone in quick succession. This defect could be deliberately exercised by an attacker who is permitted to cause a vulnerable server to initiate zone transfers (for example: by sending valid NOTIFY messages), causing the named process to exit after failing the assertion test. Affects BIND 9.12.0 and 9.12.1.
