Bug#499396: IPv6 addresses directly on the toplevel of the zonefile

Sorry, I missed to set the upstream tag on the bug report. I had 
instantly informed the upstream about your finding. He told me that he was 
very busy (~1 month ago) but that he will deal with them as soon as 
possible.

Bug#499396: IPv6 addresses directly on the toplevel of the zonefile

2008-09-18 Thread Philipp Kern
Package: pdns-server
Version: 2.9.21.1.0-1
Severity: important

Hi there,

I am using pdns with the bind backend and am experiencing trouble with
 records since the upgrade from Etch to Lenny.  Interestingly only
on records on the toplevel of the zonefile (in my case 2nd level
domains).  It seems that there is some memory corruption going on.
The addresses are different whenever I reload pdns and I think that they
also vary when they got pulled from the cache.

The server in question is publically reachable.

Some snippets from the zonefile:
[...]
@   IN A88.198.49.206 ; durotan
@   IN  2001:6f8:900:17a::2 ; durotan
[...]
durotan.ipv6IN  2001:6f8:900:17a::2
[...]

The A query works just fine.  Normal zone entries work, too:
