NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream bind-dnssec-utils package and not the bind-dnssec-utils package as distributed by AlmaLinux. See How to fix? for AlmaLinux:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

BIND 9.11.0 -> 9.11.36 9.12.0 -> 9.16.26 9.17.0 -> 9.18.0 BIND Supported Preview Editions: 9.11.4-S1 -> 9.11.36-S1 9.16.8-S1 -> 9.16.26-S1 Versions of BIND 9 earlier than those shown - back to 9.1.0, including Supported Preview Editions - are also believed to be affected but have not been tested as they are EOL. The cache could become poisoned with incorrect records leading to queries being made to the wrong servers, which might also result in false information being returned to clients.
