Package: bind9
Severity: important

With the grown deployment of DNSSEC and more information being put into
the domain name system, DNS servers have become and are becoming a
useful tool for denial of service attacks by providing amplification:
a single UDP packet of only a few bytes causes a response many times the
size of the query.

An adversary can use this effect to either cause a huge amount of
traffic to flow towards their target site (by faking the source address
of requests), or to cause a nameserver to effectively DoS itself by
filling up its outbound pipe with only a couple thousand requests per
second, costing very little in bandwidth for the adversary.

Vernon Schryver, Paul Vixie, et al have been working on bringing
(response) rate limiting to nameservers.  Such a feature enables the
admin of an authoritative nameserver to limit responses in the face of
their server being abused.

The particular patchset for bind, linked from [1], is able to enforce
limits per requested name/type/source address tuple, and can fallback to
sending clients a tiny retry-using-TCP packet.  The intent is to make
the server useless as an amplifier while not breaking resolving for
anyone.

Debian admin has deployed the patch at [2] to the bind running the
debian.org nameservers - else debian.org's nameservers would not have
any resources left to answer legitimate queries.

We think it important that the bind version Debian ships be actually
useable by the internet community in general, and ourselves in
particular.  Therefore we ask you (and the release folks) to consider
shipping wheezy's bind with the rate limiting patches applied.

Thanks for your consideration,
weasel
