Title:	Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2009-015-01)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'bind' package(s) announced via the SSA:2009-015-01 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'bind' package(s) announced via the SSA:2009-015-01 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Updated bind packages are available for Slackware 10.2 and 11.0 to address a load problem. It was reported that the initial build of these updates complained that the Linux capability module was not present and would refuse to load. It was determined that the packages which were compiled on 10.2 and 11.0 systems running 2.6 kernels, and although the installed kernel headers are from 2.4.x, it picked up on this resulting in packages that would only run under 2.4 kernels. These new packages address the issue. As always, any problems noted with update patches should be reported to security@slackware.com, and we will do our best to address them as quickly as possible. Here are the details from the Slackware 11.0 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/bind-9.3.6_P1-i486-2_slack11.0.tgz: Recompiled. The -1_slack11.0 package was compiled on a Slackware 11.0 system running a 2.6.x kernel, and this caused problems for machines running the default 2.4.33.3 kernel. This package should run correctly. +--------------------------+ Affected Software/OS: 'bind' package(s) on Slackware 10.2, Slackware 11.0. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 5.0 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:N
