question about bind9 from a clueless paranoid
I'm running Wheezy on several i386 boxes. Over the weekend I installed
bind9 and dhcp3-server on one of them. While starting to set up dynDNS,
I noticed a comment in /etc/bind/named.conf.options (this is a file
that had just been installed by the bind9 package):
// ports to talk. See http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/800113
I look at the page at the URL. It concerns poisoning of the DNS cache.
Debian is listed as being vulnerable and my D-Link DI-604 as unknown
vulnerability. The document dates from 2008, and my D-Link router was
purchased in 2004. It seems serious to this somewhat clueless geezer
so I decide to investigate further.
But I can't find any information more recent than 2008 by
googling. Surely there have been some more recent developments.
What has happened? Surely something has happened, but I find nothing.
