Sender: Security Errata for Scientific Linux
 
From: Pat Riehecky 
Subject: Security ERRATA Important: bind on SL5.x, SL6.x, SL7.x i386/x86_64

Synopsis: Important: bind security update
Advisory ID: SLSA-2014:1984-1
Issue Date: 2014-12-12
CVE Numbers: CVE-2014-8500
--

A denial of service flaw was found in the way BIND followed DNS
delegations. A remote attacker could use a specially crafted zone
containing a large number of referrals which, when looked up and
processed, would cause named to use excessive amounts of memory or crash.
(CVE-2014-8500)

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