Back Linuxsecurity Fedora 42 BIND Important Security Risk CVE-2025
BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain) is an implementation of the DNS (Domain Name System) protocols. BIND includes a DNS server (named), which resolves host names to IP addresses; a resolver library (routines for applications to use when interfacing with DNS); and tools for verifying that the DNS server is operating properly. Update Information : Update to 9.18.44 (rhbz#2431609) Security Fixes: Fix incorrect length checks for BRID and HHIT records. (CVE-2025-13878) Bug Fixes: Allow glue in delegations with QTYPE=ANY. Reconfiguring an NSEC3 opt-out zone to NSEC caused the zone to be invalid. bind-9-18-44
