Does this matter?

High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (4.68%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.

Description

A malicious client can send many DNS messages over TCP, potentially causing the server to become unstable while the attack is in progress. The server may recover after the attack ceases. Use of ACLs will not mitigate the attack. This issue affects BIND 9 versions 9.18.1 through 9.18.27, 9.19.0 through 9.19.24, and 9.18.11-S1 through 9.18.27-S1.
