Subject Name: bind Subject Summary: DNS Server Subject Home: http://www.isc.org/sw/bind/ Subject Versions: 9.4.* <= 9.4.0 Vulnerability Id: CVE-2007-2241 Vulnerability Scope: global (not OpenPKG specific) Attack Feasibility: run-time Attack Vector: remote network Attack Impact: denial of service Description: As confirmed by the vendor [0], a vulnerability exists in the DNS server BIND [1], version 9.4 up to 9.4.1. A sequence of DNS queries can cause a recursive nameserver to exit and this way cause a Denial of Service (DoS). While it is unlikely these will occur in normal operation, an attack can use them to cause the affected versions to exit.
