Synopsis
========
Incomplete verification of RSA and DSA certificates might lead to
spoofed records authenticated using DNSSEC.
Background
==========
ISC BIND is the Internet Systems Consortium implementation of the
Domain Name System (DNS) protocol.
Affected packages
=================
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 net-dns/bind < 9.4.3_p1 >= 9.4.3_p1
Description
===========
BIND does not properly check the return value from the OpenSSL
functions to verify DSA (CVE-2009-0025) and RSA (CVE-2009-0265)
certificates.
Impact
======
A remote attacker could bypass validation of the certificate chain to
spoof DNSSEC-authenticated records.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All BIND users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=net-dns/bind-9.4.3_p1"
