https://vulners.com/cve/CVE-2016-8864 https://vulners.com/cve/CVE-2016-8864 ISC BIND is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by the improper handling of responses containing a DNAME answer in db.c or resolver.c. By sending a recursive response, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to trigger an assertion failure. ISC BIND is vulnerable to a denial of service. By sending a specially crafted DNS packet with malformed options, a remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to trigger an assertion failure.

This plugin has been deprecated to better accommodate iFix supersedence with replacement plugin aix_bind_advisory14.nasl (plugin id 102126).
