Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.58442
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2007:146 (perl-Net-DNS)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to perl-Net-DNS
announced via advisory MDKSA-2007:146.

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.

Affected: 2007.0, 2007.1, Corporate 3.0, Corporate 4.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
