CVE-2025-30193

7.5 · HIGH
Published May 20, 2025 CWE-674 EPSS 0.61% (47th pctl)

Overview

CVE-2025-30193 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on May 20, 2025 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5, rated HIGH. It can be exploited remotely over the network. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical Description

In some circumstances, when DNSdist is configured to allow an unlimited number of queries on a single, incoming TCP connection from a client, an attacker can cause a denial of service by crafting a TCP exchange that triggers an exhaustion of the stack and a crash of DNSdist, causing a denial of service.

The remedy is: upgrade to the patched 1.9.10 version.

A workaround is to restrict the maximum number of queries on incoming TCP connections to a safe value, like 50, via the setMaxTCPQueriesPerConnection setting.

We would like to thank Renaud Allard for bringing this issue to our attention.
