Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.50777
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2002:001 (bind)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to bind
announced via advisory MDKSA-2002:001.

There are some insecure permissions on configuration files and
executables with the bind 9.x packages shipped with Mandrake Linux 8.0
and 8.1. This update provides stricter permissions by making the
/etc/rndc.conf and /etc/rndc.key files read/write by the named user and
by making /sbin/rndc-confgen and /sbin/rndc read/write/executable only
by root.

Affected versions: 8.0, 8.1

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
