    <title>GHSA-qhmp-q7xh-99rh — CoreDNS has TSIG authentication bypass on DoT, DoH, DoH3, DoQ, and gRPC</title>

<p>### Summary
CoreDNS' tsig plugin can be bypassed on non-plain-DNS transports because it trusts the transport writer's TsigStatus() instead of performing verification itself. In the attached PoC, plain DNS/TCP correctly rejects an invalid TSIG (NOTAUTH), while the same invalid-TSIG request is accepted over DoT (tls://) and DoH (https://), allowing a client without the shared secret to satisfy require all. The same bug class affects DoH3, DoQ, and gRPC.</p>
<p>### Details
The tsig plugin decides whether an incoming TSIG was valid by consulting w.TsigStatus(): tsigStatus := w.TsigStatus(); if tsigStatus != nil { ... NOTAUTH ... } (plugin/tsig/tsig.go)</p>
<p>Two affected transports are shown directly in the PoC:
- DoH: DoHWriter.TsigStatus() always returns nil (core/dnsserver/https.go), and the HTTP server passes unpacked DNS messages directly into the plugin chain.
- DoT: the TLS server builds a dns.Server without setting TsigSecret (core/dnsserver/server_tls.go), unlike plain DNS/TCP/UDP which sets TsigSecret: s.tsigSecret (core/dnsserver/server.go).</p>
<p>The same transport-family bug pattern also appears on other transports:
- DoH3 reuses the DoH writer path (core/dnsserver/server_https3.go -&gt; core/dnsserver/https.go), so it inherits the same TsigStatus() == nil behavior.
- DoQ uses DoQWriter.TsigStatus() error { return nil } (core/dnsserver/quic.go).
- gRPC uses gRPCresponse.TsigStatus() error { return nil } (core/dnsserver/server_grpc.go).</p>
<p>The attached PoC was kept deliberately small (ba…</p></div>
