The remote host is missing an update for the 'bind' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. BIND includes a DNS server (named), a resolver library, and tools for verifying that the DNS server is operating correctly. A denial of service flaw was found in the libdns library. This update also fixes the bug rebuilding the bind-dyndb-ldap source RPM. All bind users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain patches to correct these issues. After installing the update, the BIND daemon (named) will be restarted automatically

  Domain Name System (DNS) protocols. BIND includes a DNS server (named), a
  resolver library (routines for applications to use when interfacing with

  A denial of service flaw was found in the libdns library. A remote attacker
  could use this flaw to send a specially-crafted DNS query to named that,
  when processed, would cause named to use an excessive amount of memory, or
  possibly crash. (CVE-2013-2266)

  Note: This update disables the syntax checking of NAPTR (Naming Authority
  Pointer) resource records.

  This update also fixes the following bug:

  * Previously, rebuilding the bind-dyndb-ldap source RPM failed with a
  /usr/include/dns/view.h:76:21: error: dns/rrl.h: No such file or
  directory error. (BZ#928439)
