NVD Description

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

A bad interaction between DNS64 and serve-stale may cause named to crash with an assertion failure during recursive resolution, when both of these features are enabled. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.16.12 through 9.16.45, 9.18.0 through 9.18.21, 9.19.0 through 9.19.19, 9.16.12-S1 through 9.16.45-S1, and 9.18.11-S1 through 9.18.21-S1.
