Caldera Systems, Inc. Security Advisory

Subject: DoS attack against named
Advisory number: CSSA-2000-040.0
Issue date: 2000 November, 10
Cross reference:
______________________________________________________________________________


1. Problem Description

There's a bug in named's handling of compressed zone transfers
(ZXFR) that causes it to crash under certain circumstances.
At the very least, this is a denial of service attack. As the
bug is still being investigated, it cannot be ruled out that
this bug has a more severe security impact.

This bug affects you _only_ if you are running named, and act
as the primary name server for one or more zones. If does not
affect you if you merely run named in forwarding mode.

2. Vulnerable Versions

System Package
-----------------------------------------------------------
OpenLinux Desktop 2.3 All packages previous to
bind-8.2.2p7-1

OpenLinux eServer 2.3 All packages previous to
and OpenLinux eBuilder bind-8.2.2p7-1

OpenLinux eDesktop 2.4 All packages previous to
bind-8.2.2p7-1

3. Solution

Workaround:

As a minimum, you should restrict zone transfers to those hosts
that actually act as your secondary name servers. You can
do this by adding an "allow-transfer" statement to each zone
you act as a primary for. For instance,

zone "foobar.com" {
type master;
file "foobar.com";
allow-transfer { 192.168.1.1; 192.168.3.17 };
}

This will not completely protect you from the ZXFR attack,
but now the only sites able to perform it are those listed
in the allow-transfer clause.
