Package: lwresd
Version: 1:9.2.1-2.woody.1
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole

The manpage claims that 
       lwresd listens for resolver queries on a UDP port on the IPv4
       loopback interface, 127.0.0.1. This means  that lwresd can only
       be used by processes running on the local machine. By default UDP
       port number 921 is used for lightweight resolver requests and
       responses.
but netstat -a -n -p shows that
        udp        0      0 0.0.0.0:32768           0.0.0.0:*                   
        211/lwresd          
        udp        0      0 127.0.0.1:921           0.0.0.0:*                   
        211/lwresd          
        unix  2      [ ]         DGRAM                    304    211/lwresd     
     
- lwresd listens to non-local requests.

Version: 1:9.10.3.dfsg.P4-12.3

Hi,

the bind9 bug list grew too much and the Debian BIND team cannot
simply test all the reported bugs against versions not in stable, so
this is mass bug close, as either the version is no longer relevant
(because of old-old-stable 9.8.x or old-stable 9.9.5 or even older
version of bind9) or the bug was already fixed.

However, if you can reproduce the bug with a current version in stable,
please use Debian BTS 'found <bug> <version_you_reproduced_the_issue>'
command to retag the bug and reopen it.

Cheers,
Ondrej
