Description Ricardo Ariel Gorosito 2001-01-29 19:11:04 UTC
Network Associates, Inc. report in bugtraq:
...
o Synopsis

BIND 8 contains a buffer overflow that allows a remote attacker to
execute arbitrary code. The overflow is in the initial processing of
a DNS request and therefore does not require an attacker to control
an authoritative DNS server.  In addition, the vulnerability is not
dependent upon configuration options and affects both recursive and
non-recursive servers.  This vulnerability has been designated as
CVE candidate CAN-2001-10.

RISK FACTOR: HIGH
