AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C

Multiple memory leaks in server/MaraDNS.c in MaraDNS before 1.2.12.06, and 1.3.x before 1.3.05, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via (1) reverse lookups or (2) requests for records in a class other than Internet (IN), a different set of affected versions than CVE-2007-3114 and CVE-2007-3116.

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

Multiple implementations of the DNS protocol, including (1) Poslib 1.0.2-1 and earlier as used by Posadis, (2) Axis Network products before firmware 3.13, and (3) Men & Mice Suite 2.2x before 2.2.3 and 3.5.x before 3.5.2, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU and network bandwidth consumption) by triggering a communications loop via (a) DNS query packets with localhost as a spoofed source address, or (b) a response packet that triggers a response packet.

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

Memory leak in server/MaraDNS.c in MaraDNS 1.2.12.06 and 1.3.05 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via unspecified vectors, a different set of affected versions than CVE-2007-3114 and CVE-2007-3115.

Memory leak in server/MaraDNS.c in MaraDNS before 1.2.12.05, and 1.3.x before 1.3.03, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via unspecified vectors, a different set of affected versions than CVE-2007-3115 and CVE-2007-3116.

Input Validation
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

MaraDNS 1.3.07.12 and 1.4.08 computes hash values for DNS data without properly restricting the ability to trigger hash collisions predictably, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) by sending many crafted queries with the Recursion Desired (RD) bit set. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2012-0024.

AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N

It was reported [1],[2] that MaraDNS suffers from a flaw where it is susceptible to spoofing attacks. Due to an error in the cache update policy, which does not properly handle revoked domain names, a remote attacker could keep a domain name resolvable after it has been deleted from the registration.

This flaw is fixed in versions 1.3.0.7.15 and 1.4.12, and is reported to affect all prior versions.

Null Pointer Dereference
AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P

parse/Csv2parse.c in MaraDNS 1.3.03, and other versions before 1.4.03, does not properly handle hostnames that do not end in a "." (dot) character, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference) via a crafted csv2 zone file.
