SUSE Security Update: Security update for bind ______________________________________________________________________________ Announcement ID: SUSE-SU-2015:0480-1 Rating: important References: #743758 #858639 #908994 Cross-References: CVE-2014-0591 CVE-2014-8500 Affected Products: SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 SP1 LTSS ______________________________________________________________________________ An update that solves two vulnerabilities and has one errata is now available. It includes one version update. Description: This bind updated fixes the following two security issues: * A flaw in delegation handling could be exploited to put named into an infinite loop. This has been addressed by placing limits on the number of levels of recursion named will allow (default 7), and the number of iterative queries that it will send (default 50) before terminating a recursive query (CVE-2014-8500, bnc#908994). The recursion depth limit is configured via the "max-recursion-depth" option, and the query limit via the "max-recursion-queries" option. * A flaw when handling malformed NSEC3-signed zones could lead named to a crash. (CVE-2014-0591, bnc#858639) Additionally, a non-security bug has been fixed: * Fix handling of TXT records in ldapdump (bnc#743758). Security Issues: * CVE-2014-8500 <http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-8500> * CVE-2014-0591 <http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2014-0591> Indications: Everybody should update.
