      We have many cve in packages from PowerDNS - which is the most common alternative to the bind used by net large service providers.

      Some examples:

      CVE-2022-37428 - PowerDNS Recursor up to and including 4.5.9, 4.6.2 and 4.7.1, when protobuf logging is enabled, has Improper Cleanup upon a Thrown Exception, leading to a denial of service (daemon crash) via a DNS query that leads to an answer with specific properties.
      CVE-2022-27227 - In PowerDNS Authoritative Server before 4.4.3, 4.5.x before 4.5.4, and 4.6.x before 4.6.1 and PowerDNS Recursor before 4.4.8, 4.5.x before 4.5.8, and 4.6.x before 4.6.1, insufficient validation of an IXFR end condition causes incomplete zone transfers to be handled as successful transfers.
      CVE-2021-36754 - PowerDNS Authoritative Server 4.5.0 before 4.5.1 allows anybody to crash the process by sending a specific query (QTYPE 65535) that causes an out-of-bounds exception.
      CVE-2020-25829 - An issue has been found in PowerDNS Recursor before 4.1.18, 4.2.x before 4.2.5, and 4.3.x before 4.3.5. A remote attacker can cause the cached records for a given name to be updated to the Bogus DNSSEC validation state, instead of their actual DNSSEC Secure state, via a DNS ANY query. This results in a denial of service for installation that always validate (dnssec=validate), and for clients requesting validation when on-demand validation is enabled (dnssec=process).
      CVE-2020-24698 - An issue was discovered in PowerDNS Authoritative through 4.3.0 when --enable-experimental-gss-tsig is used. A remote, unauthenticated attacker might be able to cause a double-free, leading to a crash or possibly arbitrary code execution. by sending crafted queries with a GSS-TSIG signature.
      CVE-2020-24697 - An issue was discovered in PowerDNS Authoritative through 4.3.0 when --enable-experimental-gss-tsig is used. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can cause a denial of service by sending crafted queries with a GSS-TSIG signature.
      CVE-2020-24696 - An issue was discovered in PowerDNS Authoritative through 4.3.0 when --enable-experimental-gss-tsig is used. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can trigger a race condition leading to a crash, or possibly arbitrary code execution, by sending crafted queries with a GSS-TSIG signature.
      CVE-2020-17482 - An issue has been found in PowerDNS Authoritative Server before 4.3.1 where an authorized user with the ability to insert crafted records into a zone might be able to leak the content of uninitialized memory.
      CVE-2020-14196 - In PowerDNS Recursor versions up to and including 4.3.1, 4.2.2 and 4.1.16, the ACL restricting access to the internal web server is not properly enforced.

      I have given higher priority, it is from my perspective that the user, trusting the distribution, is not aware that he has the above-mentioned vulnerabilities because the 'vulner' tool does not catch it.

      The fix should be delivered for 1.4 and next because at the time of reporting this bug it is not possible to jump to the newer version for the selected world set.
