Please Install the Updated Packages.

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 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 &quot /usr/include/dns/view.h:76:21: error: dns/rrl.h: No such file or directory&quot error. (BZ#928439) 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.
