A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CVE link(s) in the References section.Description:The Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) is an implementation of the Domain Name System (DNS) protocols. BIND includes a DNS server (named); a resolver library (routines for applications to use when interfacing with DNS); and tools for verifying that the DNS server is operating correctly.The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a protocol that allows individual devices on an IP network to get their own network configuration information, including an IP address, a subnet mask, and a broadcast address. The dhcp packages provide a relay agent and ISC DHCP service required to enable and administer DHCP on a network.Security Fix(es):* bind: KeyTrap - Extreme CPU consumption in DNSSEC validator (CVE-2023-50387)* bind: Preparing an NSEC3 closest encloser proof can exhaust CPU resources (CVE-2023-50868)* bind: Parsing large DNS messages may cause excessive CPU load (CVE-2023-4408)For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.Solution:https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258CVEs:CVE-2023-4408References:https://access.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/#importanthttps://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2263896https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2263914https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2263917
