Response validation relies almost entirely on this ID, making DNS cache poisoning practical for an attacker who can observe one query or predict the next ID. This conflicts with RFC 5452 recommendations for mitigating forged DNS answers.\n\ninet_res is intended for use in trusted network environments and with trusted recursive resolvers. Earlier documentation did not clearly state this deployment assumption, which could lead users to deploy the resolver in environments where spoofed DNS responses are possible.\n\nThis vulnerability is associated with program files lib/kernel/src/inet_db.erl and lib/kernel/src/inet_res.erl.\n\nThis issue affects OTP from OTP 17.0 before OTP 26.2.5.19, OTP 27.3.4.10, and OTP 28.4.2, corresponding to kernel from 3.0 before 9.2.4.11, 10.2.7.4, and 10.6.2.","epss":{"date":"2026-11-10","percentile":0.19972,"score":0.00274},"exploits":[],"kev":null,"metrics":[{"score":6.3,"severity":"medium","source":"CNA: EEF","vector":"CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N","version":"4.0"}],"modifiedAt":1794425301075,"publishedAt":1775548211072,"references":[{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["vendor-advisory","related"],"url":"https://github.com/erlang/otp/security/advisories/GHSA-v884-5jg5-whj8"},{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["related"],"url":"https://cna.erlef.org/cves/CVE-2026-28810.html"},{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["related"],"url":"https://osv.dev/vulnerability/EEF-CVE-2026-28810"},{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["x_version-scheme"],"url":"https://www.erlang.org/doc/system/versions.html#order-of-versions"},{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["related"],"url":"https://github.com/erlang/otp/commit/07b8f441ca711f9812fad9e9115bab3c3aa92f79"},{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["patch"],"url":"https://github.com/erlang/otp/commit/b057a9d995017b1be50d6dc02edd52382f3231b8"},{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["patch"],"url":"https://github.com/erlang/otp/commit/dd15e8eb03548c5e55e9915f0e91389ec6bad9fd"},{"source":"CNA: EEF","tags":["patch"],"url":"https://github.com/erlang/otp/commit/36f23c9d2cc54afe83671dd7343596d7972839a5"}],"remediation":[{"kind":"workaround","source":"CNA: EEF","text":"Install the Erlang nodes in a trusted network shielded from DNS reply spoofing by firewalls, and configure the inet_res resolver to only talk to trusted recursive name servers within that network."},{"kind":"fix","source":"CNA: EEF","text":"The reporting source identifies this reference as a patch.
