Hey guys,

Wondering if anyone is aware of a 0day BIND vuln/expl floating
around in the wild. A few networks have got`n hit and Id like to
make sure mine is ready if an attack does find its way to my door
steps.

Some logs from a friends network that did get hit with it:

dns_rdataset_isassociated(sigrdataset)) failed

(dst-IP-x.x.x.) used to hid his real dns ip of course

nc-nscache-2:~# dpkg -l | grep bind
ii  bind9                               1:9.6.ESV.R4+dfsg-0+lenny3
Internet Domain Name Server

we found a few links to cvs with a vuln like this one but they have
since all been fixed/updated.

With all do respect please don't reply with "solution = don't run bind"

Cheers
