Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'bind97'
package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
The Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) is an implementation of the
Domain Name System (DNS) protocols. BIND includes a DNS server (named) a
resolver library (routines for applications to use when interfacing with
DNS) and tools for verifying that the DNS server is operating correctly.

A denial of service flaw was found in BIND. A remote attacker could use
this flaw to send a specially-crafted DNS query to named that, when
processed, would cause named to crash when rejecting the malformed query.
(CVE-2013-4854)

All bind97 users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to correct this issue. After installing the
update, the BIND daemon (named) will be restarted automatically.

Affected Software/OS:
bind97 on CentOS 5

Solution:
Please install the updated packages.
