    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Debian Security Advisory DSA-1968-1 [email protected] http://www.debian.org/security/ Florian Weimer January 08, 2010 http://www.debian.org/security/faq
    - ------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Package : pdns-recursor
    Vulnerability : several
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE Id(s) : CVE-2009-4009 CVE-2009-4010

    It was discovered that pdns-recursor, the PowerDNS recursive name
    server, contains several vulnerabilities:

    A buffer overflow can be exploited to crash the daemon, or potentially
    execute arbitrary code (CVE-2009-4009).

    A cache poisoning vulnerability may allow attackers to trick the
    server into serving incorrect DNS data (CVE-2009-4010).

    For the old stable distribution (etch), fixed packages will be
    provided soon.

    For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
    version 3.1.7-1+lenny1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
    version 3.1.7.2-1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your pdns-recursor package.
