Rule:

--
Sid:
261

--
Summary:
This event is generated by an attempted buffer overflow associated with improperly formatted DNS inverse queries. 

--
Impact:
Severe. The DNS server can be compromised allowing the attacker access at the privilege level at which BIND runs.  

--
Detailed Information:
Certain versions of BIND do no perform correct bounds checking when responding to an inverse query. A maliciously formatted inverse query can cause the DNS server to crash and allow remote access with the privileges of the user running BIND.  Inverse queries are disabled by default; this attack can affect DNS servers that have been configured to enable them.

--
Affected Systems:
BIND 4.9 releases prior to 4.9.7 and BIND 8 releases prior to 8.1.2. 

--
Attack Scenarios:
An attacker can launch this exploit to gain remote access to the DNS server.

--
Ease of Attack:
Simple.  Code exists to exploit the buffer overflow.

--
False Positives:
None Known

--
False Negatives:
None Known

--
Corrective Action:
Upgrade to a version of BIND that is not vulnerable to this attack.
