Synopsis: Important: bind security update
Advisory ID: SLSA-2015:1514-1
Issue Date: 2015-07-29
CVE Numbers: CVE-2015-5477
--

A flaw was found in the way BIND handled requests for TKEY DNS resource
records. A remote attacker could use this flaw to make named (functioning
as an authoritative DNS server or a DNS resolver) exit unexpectedly with
an assertion failure via a specially crafted DNS request packet.
(CVE-2015-5477)

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