Security Advisory Regarding Unexpected ACL Behavior in BIND 9.7.2

Description: There was a flaw where the wrong ACL was applied. This
flaw could allow access to a cache via recursion even though the ACL
disallowed it.

CVE: pending

CERT: pending

Posting date: 2010-09-28

Program Impacted: BIND

Versions affected: 9.7.2 through 9.7.2-P1

Severity: low

Exploitable: remotely

Impact: Unintended availability of cache data.

Workaround: Upgrade to BIND 9.7.2-P2. No other workaround is currently
known.

Risk Assessment: This bug is primarily a risk to operators running
both authoritative and recursive DNS on the same BIND server in the
same view.

Acknowledgements: Thank you to Alexandre Simon for finding and
testing this issue.
