DNS: RRSIG Query


This signature detects DNS RRSIG queries. RRSIG queries are used by the DNS-SEC specification to securely confirm valid DNS records. Recent security vulnerabilities in ISC BIND's implementation of DNS-SEC are leveraged by RRSIG queries, which are site-configuration-specific. A generic detection signature, other than detecting all RRSIG queries, is not possible. RRSIG queries are not inherently malicious.

Extended Description

ISC BIND is prone to multiple remote denial-of-service vulnerabilities under certain response policy zone (RPZ) configurations. An attacker can exploit these issues to cause the application process to crash, denying service to legitimate users.
