A use-after-free vulnerability exists in BIND's recursive resolver due to improper sequencing of cleanup operations on upstream fetch contexts. An attacker can send crafted DNS queries to trigger an assertion failure and crash the named daemon, affecting BIND versions 9.0.0 through 9.12.0rc1 across multiple release branches.
