VAR-201609-0049
Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2023-12-18 11:09PowerDNS (aka pdns) Authoritative Server before 4.0.1 allows remote primary DNS servers to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion and secondary DNS server crash) via a large (1) AXFR or (2) IXFR response. Supplementary information : CWE Vulnerability type by CWE-400: Uncontrolled Resource Consumption ( Resource depletion ) Has been identified. Multiple DNS Servers are prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability. An attacker can exploit this issue to cause a denial-of-service condition, denying service to legitimate users
