CVE-2006-4096  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:11 bind9 to version 1:9.3.2-P1-1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream bind9 package and not the bind9 package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

BIND before 9.2.6-P1 and 9.3.x before 9.3.2-P1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a flood of recursive queries, which cause an INSIST failure when the response is received after the recursion queue is empty.
