Title:	Slackware: Security Advisory (SSA:2023-025-01)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'bind' package(s) announced via the SSA:2023-025-01 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'bind' package(s) announced via the SSA:2023-025-01 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: New bind packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to fix security issues. Here are the details from the Slackware 15.0 ChangeLog: +--------------------------+ patches/packages/bind-9.16.37-i586-1_slack15.0.txz: Upgraded. This update fixes bugs and the following security issues: An UPDATE message flood could cause :iscman:`named` to exhaust all available memory. This flaw was addressed by adding a new :any:`update-quota` option that controls the maximum number of outstanding DNS UPDATE messages that :iscman:`named` can hold in a queue at any given time (default: 100). :iscman:`named` could crash with an assertion failure when an RRSIG query was received and :any:`stale-answer-client-timeout` was set to a non-zero value. This has been fixed. :iscman:`named` running as a resolver with the :any:`stale-answer-client-timeout` option set to any value greater than ``0`` could crash with an assertion failure, when the :any:`recursive-clients` soft quota was reached. This has been fixed. For more information, see: [links moved to references] (* Security fix *) +--------------------------+ Affected Software/OS: 'bind' package(s) on Slackware 15.0, Slackware current. Solution: Please install the updated package(s). CVSS Score: 7.8 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C
