cve-2011-2464 affected the 9.4-ESV-R4-P1?

2011-07-05 Thread iharrathi.ext
Hi all,
on the ISC website i don't see that the 9.4-ESV-R4-P1 is affected by the 
CVE-2011-2464 is it because it's not really affected? or it's affected but i 
don't see it on versions affected because the 9.4-ESV-R4-P1 has it's EOL date 
to jun2011.

Thanks.
Issam HARRATHI.

 on the ISC website i don't see that the 9.4-ESV-R4-P1 is affected by the
 CVE-2011-2464 is it because it's not really affected? or it's affected
 but i don't see it on versions affected because the 9.4-ESV-R4-P1 has
 it's EOL date to jun2011.

To be very precise with my language:  It is not *exposed*.

The issue has two layers.  First, there's an underlying bug that's been
dormant in our code for a very long time, but there was no way to trigger
it... and, second, there's the trigger.  Actually, there are two separate
triggers: one was introduced in 9.6 and another in 9.7.  Neither of
them is in any version of 9.4.

So, we *will* be releasing 9.4-ESV-R5 soon, and it contains a fix for the
underlying bug.  But we didn't release a patch today because there's no
trigger.

Additionally we report if EoL code contains a security vulnerability
even if the only fix is to upgrade to a more recent version.  It
is not in ISC's, nor the public's interest, to leave vulnerable code
out there running.
