CVE-2015-8461
HighSummary
A race condition in resolver.c in ISC BIND 9.9.8 before 9.9.8-P2 and 9.10.3 before 9.10.3-P2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (INSIST assertion failure and daemon exit) via unspecified vectors.
Risk Assessment
This vulnerability may lead to service outages in DNS, potentially impacting the entire network infrastructure of the organization.
Recommendation
It is recommended to upgrade to the latest version of ISC BIND to mitigate this vulnerability and to monitor systems for unauthorized access attempts.

- CVE-2015-8705High
In buffer.c in ISC BIND 9.10.x before version 9.10.3-P3, when debug logging is enabled, remote attackers can cause a denial of service (REQUIRE assertion failure and daemon exit, or daemon crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via OPT data or an ECS option.
- CVE-2015-5986High
In ISC BIND versions 9.9.7 before 9.9.7-P3 and 9.10.x before 9.10.2-P4, a vulnerability allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (REQUIRE assertion failure and daemon exit) via a crafted DNS response.
- CVE-2015-5722High
In ISC BIND 9.x before version 9.9.7-P3 and 9.10.x before version 9.10.2-P4, a vulnerability allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon exit) by creating a zone containing a malformed DNSSEC key and issuing a query for a name in that zone.
