Subject: Security ERRATA Moderate: bind on SL6.x i386/x86_64
MIME-Version: 1.0

Synopsis: Moderate: bind security update
Advisory ID: SLSA-2014:0043-1
Issue Date: 2014-01-20
CVE Numbers: CVE-2014-0591
--

A denial of service flaw was found in the way BIND handled queries for
NSEC3-signed zones. A remote attacker could use this flaw against an
authoritative name server that served NCES3-signed zones by sending a
specially crafted query, which, when processed, would cause named to
crash. (CVE-2014-0591)

After installing the update, the BIND daemon (named) will be restarted
automatically.
