The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200908-02 (BIND: Denial of Service)

Matthias Urlichs reported that the dns_db_findrdataset() function fails     when the prerequisite section of the dynamic update message contains a     record of type 'ANY' and where at least one RRset for this FQDN exists     on the server.

Impact :

A remote unauthenticated attacker could send a specially crafted     dynamic update message to the BIND daemon (named), leading to a Denial     of Service (daemon crash). This vulnerability affects all primary     (master) servers -- it is not limited to those that are configured to     allow dynamic updates.

Workaround :

Configure a firewall that performs Deep Packet Inspection to prevent     nsupdate messages from reaching named. Alternatively, expose only     secondary (slave) servers to untrusted networks.
