R-313: Bind Security Update
A flaw was found in the way BIND generates outbound DNS query IDs. The risk is LOW. May allow an attacker to conduct a DNS cache poisoning attack, which can result in the DNS server returning incorrect client query data.

NAME

       polygraph-dns-cfg - DNS server configuration tool

SYNOPSIS

       dns-cfg [--option ...]

DESCRIPTION

       Given  a  zone  name, DNS names, and IP addresses, dns-cfg builds configuration suitable for use with BIND and, perhaps, other DNS servers.
       Dns-cfg output consists of three parts. The first part is the text to cut-and-paste into BIND's named.conf file. This part is sent  to  the
       standard  output. The outer two parts are direct and reverse zone files. Those may be quite large and are dumped on disk into the appropri-
       ately named files. Dns-cfg can use PGL configuration as the source of information.
