CVE-2010-3614

Description

From CVE.org

named in ISC BIND 9.x before 9.6.2-P3, 9.7.x before 9.7.2-P3, 9.4-ESV before 9.4-ESV-R4, and 9.6-ESV before 9.6-ESV-R3 does not properly determine the security status of an NS RRset during a DNSKEY algorithm rollover, which might allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (DNSSEC validation error) by triggering a rollover.

Statement

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this issue as having low security impact. Because the version of bind in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4 does not implement support for the currently-used DNSSEC protocol version, there is no plan to address this flaw there. It has been addressed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (via RHSA-2010:0975) and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 (via RHSA-2010:0976).

Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details

Info alert:Important note

CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
