The transaction id and the udp source port used for DNS queries by the bind nameserver were predictable. Attackers could potentially exploit that weakness to manipulate the DNS cache (‘DNS cache poisoning’, CVE-2008-1447).

Additionally the root.hint zone file was updated to contain the new IP number of the ‘L’ root DNS server.
