  script_tag(name:"insight", value:"Every named instance configured to run as a recursive resolver
  maintains a cache database holding the responses to the queries it has recently sent to
  authoritative servers. The size limit for that cache database can be configured using the
  max-cache-size statement in the configuration file, it defaults to 90% of the total amount of
  memory available on the host. When the size of the cache reaches 7/8 of the configured limit, a
  cache-cleaning algorithm starts to remove expired and/or least-recently used RRsets from the
  cache, to keep memory use below the configured limit.

  It has been discovered that the effectiveness of the cache-cleaning algorithm used in named can
  be severely diminished by querying the resolver for specific RRsets in a certain order,
  effectively allowing the configured max-cache-size limit to be significantly exceeded.");

  script_tag(name:"impact", value:"By exploiting this flaw, an attacker can cause the amount of
  memory used by a named resolver to go well beyond the configured max-cache-size limit. The
  effectiveness of the attack depends on a number of factors (e.g. query load, query patterns), but
  since the default value of the max-cache-size statement is 90%, in the worst case the attacker
  can exhaust all available memory on the host running named, leading to a denial-of-service
  condition.");
