Description:
ISC has released a new version of BIND 8, which fixes a vulnerability allowing malicious people to poison the DNS cache.
The problem is that negative answers may be cached from the wrong source. This can be exploited to cause a "Denial of Service" against certain domains, because BIND will read the wrongly cached negative answer instead of querying the right source.
