Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2016-6170 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Isc Bind. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6170/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6170/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-6170","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6170/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-6170","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2016-6170","GHSA-r98f-r8h7-rj5p","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-6170"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"ISC BIND DNS server","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"Remote attackers can crash DNS servers by sending large AXFR, IXFR, or UPDATE messages, causing service disruption.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"bind","vendor":"isc"},{"product":"enterprise_linux","vendor":"redhat"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"ISC BIND through 9.9.9-P1, 9.10.x through 9.10.4-P1, and 9.11.x through 9.11.0b1 allows primary DNS servers to cause a denial of service (secondary DNS server crash) via a large AXFR response, and possibly allows IXFR servers to cause a denial of service (IXFR client crash) via a large IXFR response and allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (primary DNS server crash) via a large UPDATE message.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6170","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"isc:bind","products":["isc:bind","redhat:enterprise_linux"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2016"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":11,"next":{"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6171"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2016-6169"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2016-07-06","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2008-0122","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2008-01-16"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0010","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-05-07"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0011","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-05-07"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2001-0013","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2001-05-07"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2000-1029","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-11-29"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-1999-0837","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2000-01-04"},{"cvss_score":8.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2012-1667","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2012-06-05"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Remote attackers can crash DNS servers by sending large AXFR, IXFR, or UPDATE messages, causing service disruption.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-6170/"}
