BIND version 8.2.2-P5 has a denial of service bug. The code intended to provide support for the transfer of compressed zone files can crash the name server. More BIND security information can be found at: http://www.isc.org/products/BIND/bind8.html By upgrading to BIND 8.2.2-P7, users can fix this problem. A new bind.tgz package is available for users of Slackware Linux 7.0, 7.1, and -current. ======================================= BIND 8.2.2-P7 AVAILABLE - (n1/bind.tgz) ======================================= The denial of service vulnerability that affects BIND 8.2.2-P5 can be fixed by upgrading to the new BIND 8.2.2-P7 package.
