Summary
CVE-2025-40777 affecting package bind for versions less than 9.20.15-1
Details

If a named caching resolver is configured with serve-stale-enable yes, and with stale-answer-client-timeout set to 0 (the only allowable value other than disabled), and if the resolver, in the process of resolving a query, encounters a CNAME chain involving a specific combination of cached or authoritative records, the daemon will abort with an assertion failure. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.20.0 through 9.20.10, 9.21.0 through 9.21.9, and 9.20.9-S1 through 9.20.10-S1.
