Re: [cobalt-users] bind hack

[dfd <dfd@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The RAQ1 uses bind 4.9.7(?); RAQ2 uses 8.1.2.  Don't know about the qubes.
Both versions are vulnerable to some types of attacks.  There is more
information on http://www.isc.org/products/BIND/bind-security-19991108.html
about the types of attacks and what versions are vulnerable to which type.  

There doesn't appear to be any updates for the RAQ1 or RAQ2 to BIND
8.2.2-P5 from cobalt unfortunately.
