New: SSL Certificate Monitoring, Security Center, Domain & SSL Expiration Tracking - Plus Our Affiliate Program

DNS Spy now goes well beyond DNS record monitoring. We've shipped SSL certificate discovery and security auditing, expanded the Security Center to 40+ automated checks across six categories, and built expiration tracking for both domains and SSL certificates — with tiered alerts so nothing expires without warning.

BIND 9 CVE-2026-1519: The NSEC3 DoS Vulnerability Putting DNS Resolvers at Risk

On March 25, 2026, the Internet Systems Consortium (ISC) released patches for three vulnerabilities in BIND 9, the most widely deployed DNS server software in the world. The headline flaw — CVE-2026-1519 — carries a CVSS score of 7.5 and is remotely exploitable with no authentication required. An attacker who controls a maliciously crafted DNS zone can trigger the vulnerability by forcing a BIND resolver to process excessive NSEC3 iterations during DNSSEC validation of an insecure delegation.
