High [CVE-2026-12617] Record ordering based unexpected exit with CNAME or DNAME
CVE-2026-12617Source published Jul 22, 2026Source updated Jul 22, 2026
The issue is unexpected program termination based on ordering and/or specific content in responses to queries for CNAME or DNAME, and A records. Specifically, if a client queries for a DNAME and A record below the DNAME to the resolver, and the authoritative server responds positively to the A query but delays the DNAME response and later responds negatively, `named` may quit unexpectedly. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.18.0 through 9.18.50, 9.20.0 through 9.20.24, 9.18.11-S1 through 9.18.50-S1, and 9.20.9-S1 through 9.20.24-S1. This Important flaw in BIND can lead to a denial of service in Red Hat products. The `named` daemon may terminate unexpectedly when processing specific CNAME/DNAME and A record query orderings, coupled with precisely timed authoritative server responses.…
