  script_tag(name:"insight", value:"The Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) is an implementation of the Domain
  Name System (DNS) protocols. BIND includes a DNS server (named), a resolver
  library (routines for applications to use when interfacing with DNS), and
  tools for verifying that the DNS server is operating correctly.

  A flaw was found in the way BIND handled resource records with a large
  RDATA value. A malicious owner of a DNS domain could use this flaw to
  create specially-crafted DNS resource records, that would cause a recursive
  resolver or secondary server to exit unexpectedly with an assertion
  failure. (CVE-2012-4244)

  This update also fixes the following bug:

  * The bind-chroot-admin script, executed when upgrading the bind-chroot
  package, failed to correctly update the permissions of the
  /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf file. Depending on the permissions of the
  file, this could have prevented named from starting after installing
  package updates. With this update, bind-chroot-admin correctly updates the
  permissions and ownership of the file. (BZ#857056)

  Users of bind are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
  correct these issues. After installing the update, the BIND daemon (named)
  will be restarted automatically.");
