Problem Description CERT/CC Incident Note VU#734644 BIND is an implementation of the Domain Name System (DNS) protocols. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in a temporary denial of service. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has assigned the name CAN-2003-0914 to this issue. 2. Vulnerable Supported Versions System Package ---------------------------------------------------------------------- OpenLinux 3.1.1 Server prior to bind-8.3.7-1.i386.rpm prior to bind-doc-8.3.7-1.i386.rpm prior to bind-utils-8.3.7-1.i386.rpm OpenLinux 3.1.1 Workstation prior to bind-8.3.7-1.i386.rpm prior to bind-doc-8.3.7-1.i386.rpm prior to bind-utils-8.3.7-1.i386.rpm 3. Solution The proper solution is to install the latest packages. Many customers find it easier to use the Caldera System Updater, called cupdate (or kcupdate under the KDE environment), to update these packages rather than downloading and installing them by hand. 4.
