The DNS protocol, as implemented in 1 BIND 8 and 9 before 9.5.0-P1, 9.4.2-P1, and 9.3.5-P1; 2 Microsoft DNS in Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP2 and SP3, and Server 2003 SP1 and SP2; and other implementations allow remote attackers to spoof DNS traffic via a birthday attack that uses in-bailiwick referral...

FreeBSD -- DNS cache poisoning

Problem Description: The BIND DNS implementation does not randomize the UDP source port when doing remote queries, and the query id alone does not provide adequate randomization. Impact: The lack of source port randomization reduces the amount of data the attacker needs to guess in order to...
