Subject Name:            bind
Subject Summary:         DNS Server
Subject Home:            http://www.isc.org/sw/bind/
Subject Versions:        9.4.* <= 9.4.0

Vulnerability Id:        CVE-2007-2241
Vulnerability Scope:     global (not OpenPKG specific)

Attack Feasibility:      run-time
Attack Vector:           remote network
Attack Impact:           denial of service

Description:
    As confirmed by the vendor [0], a vulnerability exists in the DNS
    server BIND [1], version 9.4 up to 9.4.1. A sequence of DNS queries
    can cause a recursive nameserver to exit and this way cause a Denial
    of Service (DoS). While it is unlikely these will occur in normal
    operation, an attack can use them to cause the affected versions to
    exit.
