Security Advisory Synopsis: Security problems in bind Advisory ID: RHSA-1999:054-01 Issue date: 1999-11-11 Updated on: 1999-11-11 Keywords: bind named NXT solinger fdmax Cross references: http://www.isc.org/products/BIND/bind-security-19991108.html --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Topic: Several security vulnerabilities exist in the DNS server, 'bind'. 2. Relevant releases/architectures: Red Hat Linux 4.x, all platforms Red Hat Linux 5.x, all platforms Red Hat Linux 6.x, all platforms 3. Problem description: Various vulnerabilities exist in previous versions of bind: - A bug in the processing of NXT records can theoretically allow a remote attacker to gain access to the DNS server as the user running bind (by default, root). This vulnerability does not affect the bind packages that shipped with Red Hat Linux 4.2 and Red Hat Linux 5.2. - Several remote denial-of-service attacks are possible; by using abnormal TCP options, causing the DNS server to use many file descriptors, or using special SIG records, it may be possible to crash the DNS server. It is recommended that all users of bind upgrade to the latest packages. Thanks go to ISC for providing the updated packages. 4. Solution: For each RPM for your particular architecture, run: rpm -Uvh <filename> where filename is the name of the RPM. 5. Bug IDs fixed (http://developer.redhat.com/bugzilla for more info): 6.

Will we see that release shortly? It's been up on the ISC FTP server for several days. The patch for named-xfer is named 'patch4' but if negltected to bump the version number. So, unless you do it yourself, you'll still show as P3. -- Gregory A Lundberg Senior Partner, VRnet Company 1441 Elmdale Drive lundberg@vr.net Kettering, OH 45409-1615 USA 1-800-809-2195 (4484644) ------------------------------------------
