CVE-2019-25038
CVSS v2.0
10
Critical
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:C/I:C/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Unbound versions prior to 1.9.5
Description
The issue is related to an integer overflow in a size calculation in the dnscrypt/dnscrypt.c component of the Unbound DNS server. This could potentially allow a remote attacker to access confidential data, compromise its integrity, and cause a denial of service. However, the vendor disputes that this is a vulnerability, and it's noted that a running Unbound installation cannot be remotely or locally exploited.
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 dnscrypt/dnscrypt.c component until a patch is available.
