PowerDNS Security Advisory 2017-04: Missing check on API operations

    CVE: CVE-2017-15091
    Date: November 27th 2017
    Credit: everyman
    Affects: PowerDNS Authoritative up to and including 4.0.4, 3.4.11
    Not affected: PowerDNS Authoritative 4.0.5
    Severity: Low
    Impact: Denial of service
    Exploit: This problem can be triggered by an attacker with valid API credentials
    Risk of system compromise: No
    Solution: Upgrade to a non-affected version

An issue has been found in the API component of PowerDNS Authoritative, where some operations that have an impact on the state of the server are still allowed even though the API has been configured as read-only via the api-readonly keyword. This missing check allows an attacker with valid API credentials could flush the cache, trigger a zone transfer or send a NOTIFY. This issue has been assigned CVE-2017-15091.

PowerDNS Authoritative up to and including 4.0.4 and 3.4.11 are affected.

For those unable to upgrade to a new version, a minimal patch is available

We would like to thank everyman for finding and subsequently reporting this issue.
