"The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version CORE 5.05 / MAIN 5.05, has bind packages installed that are affected by a
vulnerability:
- A flaw was found in the way bind implemented tunable
which limited simultaneous TCP client connections. A
remote attacker could use this flaw to exhaust the pool
of file descriptors available to named, potentially
affecting network connections and the management of
files such as log files or zone journal files. In cases
where the named process is not limited by OS-enforced
per-process limits, this could additionally potentially
lead to exhaustion of all available free file
descriptors on that system. (CVE-2018-5743)
