by sending a large volume of recursive queries that return multiple
RRsets in the answer section, triggering assertion checks. To be
vulnerable you need to have enabled DNSSEC validation in named.conf by
specifying trusted-keys.

Note that Nessus obtained the version by sending a special DNS request
for the text 'version.bind' in the domain 'chaos', the value of which
can be and sometimes is tweaked by DNS administrators.");
