CVE-1999-0532

Summary

CVE-1999-0532 denotes a vulnerability in certain DNS (Domain Name System) servers. These servers permissibly perform zone transfers, enabling unauthorized access to sensitive information. Zone transfers, which facilitate the replication of DNS data between servers, can expose detailed data about a domain's subdomains and IP addresses. Malicious actors can exploit this vulnerability to launch targeted attacks or perform reconnaissance for future cyber campaigns. To mitigate this risk, administrators should ensure their DNS servers are properly configured and restrict zone transfers only to trusted sources.
