Mandriva Update for perl-Net-DNS MDKSA-2007:146 (perl-Net-DNS)

Solution
Please Install the Updated Packages.
Insight
A flaw was discovered in the perl Net::DNS module in the way it generated the ID field in a DNS query. Because it is so predictable, a remote attacker could exploit this to return invalid DNS data (CVE-2007-3377). A denial of service vulnerability was found in how Net::DNS parsed certain DNS requests. A malformed response to a DNS request could cause the application using Net::DNS to crash or stop responding (CVE-2007-3409). The updated packages have been patched to prevent these issues.
