Windows DNS Server Denial of Service Vulnerability
FAQ: Can this vulnerability by mitigated by enabling Secure Zone Updates?
Enabling Secure Zone Updates constrains the potential sources of the attack, but does not completely prevent it. For example, a malicious insider could attack a “secure zone update” DNS server from a domain-joined computer. This is only a partial mitigation.
Does this vulnerability impact just standalone DNS Primary Authoritative Server and not a DNS Server integrated with Active Directory?
This vulnerability impacts any DNS server. The surrounding configuration can limit possible vectors/sources for the attack, but proper mitigation requires this month’s security update patch.
FAQ: If my server is not configured to be a DNS server, it is vulnerable?
No, this vulne

[HIGH] Microsoft Patch Tuesday for March 2021 — Snort rules and prominent vulnerabilities
By Jon Munshaw, with contributions from Nick Biasini.
