DescriptionCVE.org

Apache Traffic Server reads out of bounds while parsing DNS answers.

This issue affects Apache Traffic Server: from 8.0.0 through 8.1.9, from 9.0.0 through 9.2.14, from 10.0.0 through 10.1.3.

Users are recommended to upgrade to version 9.2.15 or 10.1.4, which fix the issue.

AnalysisAI

Out-of-bounds read in Apache Traffic Server's DNS answer parser (CWE-125) allows unauthenticated remote attackers - or adversaries capable of influencing DNS responses - to leak partial heap memory contents or crash the ATS process, affecting all three active release branches (8.x, 9.x, 10.x). The CVSS 6.5 Medium rating reflects no authentication barrier and no user interaction required, though impact is limited to partial confidentiality and availability loss with no integrity impact. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation No authentication against ATS is required - CVSS PR:N/UI:N confirms this is a zero-interaction, unauthenticated attack path from the ATS process's perspective. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:L scores 6.5 (Medium). … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker who has compromised an upstream DNS resolver, or who can perform DNS spoofing on the network segment between ATS and its resolver, returns a crafted DNS answer with oversized or malformed record data. ATS parses the response and reads beyond the allocated buffer boundary, either leaking heap contents (visible in error logs or crafted response data returned to a client) or crashing the ATS worker process. …
Remediation The primary fix is to upgrade Apache Traffic Server to version 9.2.15 or 10.1.4, as explicitly recommended by the Apache Software Foundation in their advisory at https://lists.apache.org/thread/5prl9glcm9g2swnq9hqxvnokylm1gr6d. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
