Title:	Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2012-166-01)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'bind' package(s) announced via the SSA:2012-166-01 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'bind' package(s) announced via the SSA:2012-166-01 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: New bind packages are available for Slackware 8.1, 9.0, 9.1, 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, 11.0, 12.0, 12.1, 12.2, 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, and -current to fix security issues. Here are the details from the Slackware 13.37 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ This release fixes an issue that could crash BIND, leading to a denial of service. It also fixes the so-called 'ghost names attack' whereby a remote attacker may trigger continued resolvability of revoked domain names. For more information, see: [links moved to references] (* Security fix *) +--------------------------+ On Slackware 8.1, only CVE-2012-1667 was patched (see ChangeLog). IMPORTANT NOTE FOR ON SLACKWARE 9.0 - 13.1: These versions were upgraded with a new version of BIND, _not_ a patched one. It is likely to be more strict about the correctness of configuration files. Care should be taken about deploying this upgrade on production servers to avoid an unintended interruption of service. Affected Software/OS: 'bind' package(s) on Slackware 8.1, Slackware 9.0, Slackware 9.1, Slackware 10.0, Slackware 10.1, Slackware 10.2, Slackware 11.0, Slackware 12.0, Slackware 12.1, Slackware 12.2, Slackware 13.0, Slackware 13.1, Slackware 13.37, Slackware current. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 8.5 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:N/A:C
