patches/packages/bind-9.4_ESV_R5-i486-1_slack12.1.tgz
This BIND update addresses a couple of security issues:
* named, set up to be a caching resolver, is vulnerable to a user
querying a domain with very large resource record sets (RRSets)
when trying to negatively cache the response. Due to an off-by-one
error, caching the response could cause named to crash. [RT #24650]
[CVE-2011-1910]
* Change #2912 (see CHANGES) exposed a latent bug in the
DNS message
processing code that could allow certain UPDATE requests to crash
named. [RT #24777] [CVE-2011-2464]
