FKIE_CVE-2024-33655

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2024-06-06 17:15 - Updated: 2025-11-04 22:16
Summary
The DNS protocol in RFC 1035 and updates allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (resource consumption) by arranging for DNS queries to be accumulated for seconds, such that responses are later sent in a pulsing burst (which can be considered traffic amplification in some cases), aka the "DNSBomb" issue.
