CVE-2017-3136

     Oleg Gorokhov of Yandex discovered that BIND does not properly
     handle certain queries when using DNS64 with the "break-dnssec yes;"
     option, allowing a remote attacker to cause a denial-of-service.

CVE-2017-3137

     It was discovered that BIND makes incorrect assumptions about the
     ordering of records in the answer section of a response containing
     CNAME or DNAME resource records, leading to situations where BIND
     exits with an assertion failure. An attacker can take advantage of
     this condition to cause a denial-of-service.

CVE-2017-3138

     Mike Lalumiere of Dyn, Inc. discovered that BIND can exit with a
     REQUIRE assertion failure if it receives a null command string on
     its control channel. Note that the fix applied in Debian is only
     applied as a hardening measure. Details about the issue can be found
     at https://kb.isc.org/docs/aa-01471 .


For Debian 7 "Wheezy", these problems have been fixed in version
1:9.8.4.dfsg.P1-6+nmu2+deb7u16.

We recommend that you upgrade your bind9 packages.
