Gerfried Fuchs uploaded new packages for pdns-recursor which fixed the following security problems: CVE-2009-4009 A buffer overflow can be exploited to crash the daemon, or potentially execute arbitrary code. CVE-2009-4010 A cache poisoning vulnerability may allow attackers to trick the server into serving incorrect DNS data. For the etch-backports distribution the problems have been fixed in version 3.1.7-1+lenny1~bpo40+1. For the sid distribution the problems have been fixed in version 3.1.7.2-1. Upgrade instructions -------------------- If you don't use pinning (see [1]) you have to update the packages manually via "apt-get -t lenny-backports install <packagelist>" with the packagelist of your installed packages affected by this update. [1] <http://backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=instructions> We recommend to pin the backports repository to 200 so that new versions of installed backports will be installed automatically: Package: * Pin: release a=etch-backports Pin-Priority: 200
