Comment 1 Dave Hodgins 2012-10-11 06:03:08 CEST
Testing complete Mageia 1 and 2, i586 and x86-64.
Just testing that host and dig work at 127.0.0.1

Could someone from the sysadmin team push the srpm
bind-9.9.1.P4-1.mga2.src.rpm
from Mageia 2 Core Updates Testing to Core Updates and the srpm
bind-9.8.3P4-1.mga1.src.rpm
from Mageia 1 Core Updates Testing to Core Updates

Advisory: Updated bind packages fix security vulnerability:

A certain combination of records in the RBT could cause named to hang
while populating the additional section of a response.
(CVE-2012-5166).
