Vulnerability Notes The Vulnerability Notes Database provides information about software vulnerabilities. Vulnerability Notes include summaries, technical details, remediation information, and lists of affected vendors. Most Vulnerability Notes are the result of private coordination and disclosure efforts. For more comprehensive coverage of public vulnerability reports, consider the National Vulnerability Database (NVD). + Read More You can search the Vulnerability Notes Database or browse by several views. Help is available on database fields and customizing search queries. We also provide an archive of all public vulnerability information from our database. To communicate with us about a specific vulnerability, please send email with the appropriate VU# number(s) in the subject line. We appreciate your comments and suggestions.
BIND An authoritative DNS server answers requests from resolvers, using information about the domain names it is authoritative for. You can provide DNS services on the Internet by installing this software on a server and giving it information about your domain names. The BIND 9 documentation includes a description of the Primary/Secondary/Stealth Secondary roles for authoritative servers. Response Rate Limiting (RRL) is an enhancement to named to reduce the problem of “amplification attacks” by rate-limiting DNS responses. Minimal ANY Responses Queries for ANY records are a possible abuse mechanism because they typically extract a response much larger than the query. Dynamically-Loadable Zones (DLZ) enable BIND 9 to retrieve zone data directly from an external database. Minimum Re-load Time Update your BIND 9 server zone files with the remote name daemon control (rndc) utility, without restarting BIND 9.
