The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201202-03 (MaraDNS: Denial of Service). MaraDNS does not properly randomize hash functions to protect against hash collision attacks. A remote attacker could send many specially crafted DNS recursive queries, possibly resulting in a Denial of Service condition
