    http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2009-0025

    http://groups.google.com/group/comp.protocols.dns.bind/browse_thread/thread/49ef622c8329fd33

Description:
    Previous versions of BIND incorrectly interpret the return value of the
    OpenSSL DSA_do_verify function. On systems using DNSSEC, a malicious zone
    could present a malformed DSA certificate and bypass proper certificate
    validation, allowing spoofing attacks.
    
    rPath Linux does not ship with DNSSEC enabled, and therefore is not, by
    default, vulnerable to this attack.
