Description
The issue is related to an out-of-bounds write via a compressed name in the
rdata copy function. Although the vendor disputes that this is a vulnerability, the code may be vulnerable. However, a running Unbound installation cannot be remotely or locally exploited. The vulnerability may allow an attacker to access confidential data, disrupt its integrity, and cause a denial of service.Recommendations
For Unbound versions prior to 1.9.5, update to version 1.9.5 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
rdata copy function until a patch is available.Fix
