CVE-2017-3143: An error in TSIG authentication can permit unauthorized dynamic updates AA-01503 An attacker may be able to forge a valid TSIG or signature for a dynamic update. CVE: CVE-2017-3143 Document Version: 2.0 Posting date: 29 June 2017 Program Impacted: BIND Versions affected: 9.4.0->9.8.8, 9.9.0->9.9.10-P1, 9.10.0->9.10.5-P1, 9.11.0->9.11.1-P1, 9.9.3-S1->9.9.10-S2, 9.10.5-S1->9.10.5-S2 Severity: High Exploitable: Remotely Description: An attacker who is able to send and receive messages to an authoritative DNS server and who has knowledge of a valid TSIG key name for the zone and service being targeted may be able to manipulate BIND into accepting an unauthorized dynamic update. Impact: A server that relies solely on TSIG keys with no other address-based ACL protection could be vulnerable to malicious zone content manipulation using this technique. CVSS Score: 7.5 CVSS Vector: CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N For more information on the Common Vulnerability Scoring System and to obtain your specific environmental score please visit: https://www.first.org/cvss/calculator/3.0#CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:H/A:N Workarounds: The effects of this vulnerability can be mitigated by using Access Control Lists (ACLs) that require both address range validation and use of TSIG authentication in conjunction. For information on how to configure this type of compound authentication control, please see: https://kb.isc.org/article/AA-00723/0/Using-Access-Control-Lists-ACLs-with-both-addresses-and-keys.html. Administrators who have made use of named.conf option "update-policy local;" should refer to the Administrator Reference Manual (ARM) for details of the automatic update policy that will be established and to assess whether or not this conveys any additional risk to their server. (Note that this option is not enabled by default). Active exploits: No known active exploits but a similar issue was announced publicly on 23 June 2017 by another DNS server software provider. Solution: Upgrade to the patched release most closely related to your current version of BIND. These can all be downloaded from http://www.isc.org/downloads. * BIND 9 version 9.9.10-P2 * BIND 9 version 9.10.5-P2 * BIND 9 version 9.11.1-P2 BIND Supported Preview Edition is a special feature preview branch of BIND provided to eligible ISC support customers. * BIND 9 version 9.9.10-S3 * BIND 9 version 9.10.5-S3 Acknowledgements: ISC would like to thank Clement Berthaux from Synacktiv for reporting this issue.
