Title: | Mandriva Update for bind MDVA-2011:083 (bind) |
Summary: | The remote host is missing an update for the 'bind'; package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. |
Description: | Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'bind' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. Vulnerability Insight: The default configuration (and compiled in) options for ISC BIND uses DNSSEC per default which under certain circumstances can result in huge latencies due to the overhead of trying to validate each lookup, and every time. This has now been disabled in the configuration file (/var/lib/named/etc/named.conf) for performance reasons but can easily be enabled again. Please have a look at the dnssec-enable and dnssec-validation configuration options and set the preferred method there. Affected Software/OS: bind on Mandriva Linux 2010.1, Mandriva Linux 2010.1/X86_64, Mandriva Enterprise Server 5, Mandriva Enterprise Server 5/X86_64 Solution: Please Install the Updated Packages. CVSS Score: 7.8 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C |
