Description Peter Simons 2005-01-27 02:29:28 UTC

Hi, there is a denial of service attack against bind versions prior to 9.3.1; th elatest version right now being 9.3.1beta1. I have only this URL right now, which is in German: <http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/55543>.

I would be great if you could provide an EBUILD for that version. I'm about to try whether "just renaming" the old one works, I just wanted to report this ASAP.

Reproducible: Always
