CERT-FR Warns of ISC BIND Vulnerabilities
Free public brief. Slack alerts on the vendors you run come with the paid plans, and a new account gets three days of them, no card.
Multiple vulnerabilities in ISC BIND allow remote code execution and denial of service; patches available.
CERT-FR has published an advisory covering three newly disclosed vulnerabilities in ISC BIND, a widely used DNS server software. The flaws affect BIND versions prior to 9.20.30 and 9.21.27, as well as BIND Supported Preview Edition prior to 9.20.30-S1. Successful exploitation could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service condition on affected DNS infrastructure.
The advisory references three separate ISC security bulletins (CVE-2026-94300, CVE-2026-96888, CVE-2026-97313), all published on 21 October 2026, though no technical details of the vulnerabilities are provided in this CERT-FR summary. No in-the-wild exploitation is mentioned. Defenders operating BIND DNS servers should consult the linked ISC bulletins for patch details and upgrade affected installations to the fixed versions as soon as possible, given the critical role DNS infrastructure plays and the potential for remote code execution.

What this brief leaves out
This page is the free tier: the write-up, the severity, the names. In the app the same report carries live profiles of the CVEs it names. The paid plans add the security research and news reporting the free tier leaves out.
It sits in a corpus of 14,237 reports from 143 sources, 591 of them written in the last seven days, and it grows through the day.
A new account starts with three days of all of it, no card, then keeps the government and CERT reporting free. Slack alerts are a paid-plan feature: name the vendors you run and Slack hears about the reports that touch them — about forty a week that are yours, not the four hundred that are not.
