Secure Computing has acknowledged a vulnerability in Sidewinder and CyberGuard, which can be exploited by malicious people to poison the DNS cache.

The vulnerability is caused due to the products not sufficiently randomising the DNS query port number. This can be exploited to poison the DNS cache.
