Severity ?
7.5 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Summary
In some circumstances, when DNSdist is configured to allow an unlimited number of queries on a single, incoming TCP connection from a client, an attacker can cause a denial of service by crafting a TCP exchange that triggers an exhaustion of the stack and a crash of DNSdist, causing a denial of service. The remedy is: upgrade to the patched 1.9.10 version. A workaround is to restrict the maximum number of queries on incoming TCP connections to a safe value, like 50, via the setMaxTCPQueriesPerConnection setting. We would like to thank Renaud Allard for bringing this issue to our attention.

La soluci\u00f3n es actualizar a la versi\u00f3n 1.9.10 con el parche. Una alternativa consiste en restringir el n\u00famero m\u00e1ximo de consultas en las conexiones TCP entrantes a un valor seguro, como 50, mediante la configuraci\u00f3n setMaxTCPQueriesPerConnection. Agradecemos a Renaud Allard por informarnos sobre este problema."
