unbound vulnerabilities
==========================================================================

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

- Ubuntu 22.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 18.04 LTS

Summary:

Unbound could be made to cache rogue domain names.

Software Description:
- unbound: validating, recursive, caching DNS resolver

Details:

Xiang Li discovered that Unbound incorrectly handled delegation caching.
A remote attacker could use this issue to keep rogue domain names
resolvable long after they have been revoked.

Update instructions:

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

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS:
  libunbound8                     1.13.1-1ubuntu5.1
  unbound                         1.13.1-1ubuntu5.1

Ubuntu 20.04 LTS:
  libunbound8                     1.9.4-2ubuntu1.3
  unbound                         1.9.4-2ubuntu1.3

Ubuntu 18.04 LTS:
