An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2026-33258 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Powerdns Recursor. 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-2026-33258/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-33258/index.md)","id":"CVE-2026-33258","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-33258/index.md","name":"CVE-2026-33258","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2026-33258","GHSA-mfmv-pg93-65w5","UBUNTU-CVE-2026-33258"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"DNS recursor","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can cause resource exhaustion and denial of service in PowerDNS Recursor by publishing and querying crafted DNS zones.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"OX","cpe":[{"product":"recursor","vendor":"powerdns"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-770","name":"Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling"}],"description":"By publishing and querying a crafted zone an attacker can cause allocation of large entries in the negative and aggressive NSEC(3) caches.","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":"Crafted zones can cause increased resource usage","id":"CVE-2026-33258","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"powerdns:recursor","products":["powerdns:recursor"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2026"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Concurrent modification of RPZ data can lead to denial of servce","id":"CVE-2026-33259"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Insufficient input validation of internal webserver","id":"CVE-2026-33257"},"products":["Recursor"],"published":"2026-04-22","related":[{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-4009","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-01-08"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2020-10030","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-05-19"},{"cvss_score":8.2,"headline":"Crafted delegations or IP fragments can poison cached delegations in Recursor","id":"CVE-2025-59023","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-02-09"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Insufficient validation of incoming notifies over TCP can lead to a denial of service in Recursor","id":"CVE-2025-59030","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2025-12-09"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2023-22617","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2023-01-21"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Memory corruption in pdns-recursor","id":"CVE-2018-16855","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-12-03"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2009-4010","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2010-01-08"}],"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":"yes","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-04-22","vendors":["PowerDNS"]},"summary":"An attacker can cause resource exhaustion and denial of service in PowerDNS Recursor by publishing and querying crafted DNS zones.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2026-33258/"}
