Assigner: MITRE

Description
Improper handling of DNS over TCP in Simple DNS Plus v9 allows a remote attacker with querying access to the DNS server to cause the server to return request payloads from other clients. This happens when the TCP length prefix is malformed (len differs from actual packet len), and due to a concurrency/buffering issue, even when the lengths match. A length prefix that is smaller than the actual packet size increases information leakage. In summary, this vulnerability allows an attacker to see DNS queries of other clients.

AI Powered Q&A
Can you explain this vulnerability to me?

This vulnerability in Simple DNS Plus v9 involves improper handling of DNS over TCP. A remote attacker with access to query the DNS server can exploit malformed TCP length prefixes or concurrency/buffering issues to cause the server to return DNS request payloads from other clients. Essentially, the attacker can see DNS queries made by other clients due to information leakage caused by these issues.


How can this vulnerability impact me? :

The vulnerability can lead to information leakage where an attacker can view DNS queries from other clients. This compromises the privacy of users by exposing their DNS requests, potentially revealing sensitive information about their internet activity or network usage.
