CVSS Score: 7.7 Published: 2026-03-06 Full Report: https://cvereports.com/reports/CVE-2026-26017
A logical vulnerability in CoreDNS versions prior to 1.14.2 allows attackers to bypass access control lists (ACLs) via a Time-of-Check Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) flaw. The default plugin execution order processes security enforcement plugins (such as acl, firewall, and opa) before the rewrite plugin. Consequently, an attacker can query a permitted domain name that is subsequently rewritten to a restricted internal domain, bypassing the intended security policies and resolving the restricted target.
