Debian Linux Security Advisory 1515-1

Debian Security Advisory 1515-1 – Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in libnet-dns-perl. It was discovered that libnet-dns-perl generates very weak transaction IDs when sending queries. Compression loops in domain names resulted in an infinite loop in the domain name expander written in Perl. Decoding malformed A records could lead to a crash (via an uncaught Perl exception) of certain applications using libnet-dns-perl.
