==========================================================================

A security issue affects these releases of Ubuntu and its derivatives:

- Ubuntu 24.10
- Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Summary:

Several security issues were fixed in Bind.

Software Description:
- bind9: Internet Domain Name Server

Details:

Toshifumi Sakaguchi discovered that Bind incorrectly handled many records
in the additional section. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue
to cause Bind to consume CPU resources, leading to a denial of service.
(CVE-2024-11187)

Jean-François Billaud discovered that the Bind DNS-over-HTTPS
implementation incorrectly handled a heavy query load. A remote attacker
could possibly use this issue to cause Bind to consume resources, leading
to a denial of service. (CVE-2024-12705)

Update instructions:

The problem can be corrected by updating your system to the following
package versions:

Ubuntu 24.10
   bind9                           1:9.20.0-2ubuntu3.1
