CVE Name:       CVE-2011-4313

For general information regarding FreeBSD Security Advisories,
including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the
following sections, please visit <URL:http://security.FreeBSD.org/>.

I.   Background

BIND 9 is an implementation of the Domain Name System (DNS) protocols.
The named(8) daemon is an Internet Domain Name Server.

II.  Problem Description

A remote attacker could cause the BIND resolver to cache an invalid
record, which could cause the BIND daemon to crash when that record
is being queried.

III. Impact

An attacker that is able to send an specifically crafted response to the
BIND daemon can cause it to crash, resulting in a denial of service.

Note that due to the nature of this vulnerability, the attacker does
not necessarily have to have query access to the victim server.  The
vulnerability can be triggered by tricking legitimate clients, for
instance spam filtering systems or an end user browser, which can be
made to the query on their behalf.

IV.  Workaround

No workaround is available, but systems not running the BIND resolving
name server are not affected.

Servers that are running in authoritative-only mode appear not to be
affected by this vulnerability.

V.   Solution

Perform one of the following:

1) Upgrade your vulnerable system to 7-STABLE or 8-STABLE, or to the
RELENG_8_2, RELENG_8_1, RELENG_7_4, or RELENG_7_3 security branch dated
after the correction date.

2) To update your vulnerable system via a source code patch:

The following patches have been verified to apply to FreeBSD 7.4, 7.3,
8.2 and 8.1 systems.

a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the
detached PGP signature using your PGP utility.

[FreeBSD 7.3-RELEASE and 7.4-RELEASE]
# fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-11:06/bind7.patch
# fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-11:06/bind7.patch.asc

[FreeBSD 8.1-RELEASE and 8.2-RELEASE]
# fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-11:06/bind8.patch
# fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-11:06/bind8.patch.asc

b) Execute the following commands as root:

# cd /usr/src
# patch < /path/to/patch
# cd /usr/src/lib/bind/
# make obj && make depend && make && make install
# cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/named
# make obj && make depend && make && make install

3) To update your vulnerable system via a binary patch:

Systems running 7.4-RELEASE, 7.3-RELEASE, 8.2-RELEASE, or 8.1-RELEASE on
the i386 or amd64 platforms can be updated via the freebsd-update(8)
utility:

# freebsd-update fetch
# freebsd-update install

4) Install and run BIND from the Ports Collection after the correction
date.  The following versions and newer versions of BIND installed from
the Ports Collection already have the mitigation measure:

        bind96-9.6.3.1.ESV.R5.1
        bind97-9.7.4.1
        bind98-9.8.1.1
