I'm going to defer this assignment to MITRE. I suspect they've gotten a number of
requests for this one already (I want to avoid a duplicate assignment).

Thanks.

Hello.

A new bind release is out there, it mentions:

"It addresses a potential cache poisoning vulnerability, in which data
in the 
additional section of a response could be cached without proper DNSSEC

validation."

"2772.   [security]      When validating, track whether pending data
was from
                        the additional section or not and only return
it if
                        validates as secure. [RT #20438]"


A CVE should probably be assigned.
