3. Description:

 

The Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) is an implementation of the

Domain Name System (DNS) protocols. BIND includes a DNS server (named); a

resolver library (routines for applications to use when interfacing with

DNS); and tools for verifying that the DNS server is operating correctly.

 

A flaw was found in the way BIND handled certain combinations of resource

records. A remote attacker could use this flaw to cause a recursive

resolver, or an authoritative server in certain configurations, to lockup.

(CVE-2012-5166)

 

Users of bind are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which

correct this issue. After installing the update, the BIND daemon (named)

will be restarted automatically.

 

4. Solution:

 

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata

relevant to your system have been applied.

 

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to

use the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at

https://access.redhat.com/knowledge/articles/11258

 

5. Bugs fixed (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
