The vulnerability, which is designated CVE-2019-6469 ("BIND Supported Preview Edition can exit with an assertion failure if ECS is in use") can only be encountered in the Supported Preview Edition; it cannot occur in the public open-source branches of BIND. However, we are issuing this announcement for two reasons: 1) We believe that public disclosure of vulnerabilities is an important security practice and it is required by our ISC Software Defect and Security Vulnerability Disclosure Policy (if you are interested, you can read the policy here: https://kb.isc.org/docs/aa-00861) 2) We do not want users of our public open-source products to learn about this vulnerability elsewhere and potentially be confused about whether the defect can affect them. [It cannot.] Those who wish to learn more about the vulnerability, whether they are affected or not, can read the security advisory for CVE-2019-6469 in the ISC Knowledge Base: https://kb.isc.org/docs/cve-2019-6469 Sincerely, Michael McNally ISC Support _______________________________________________ bind-announce mailing list bind-announce@lists.isc.org https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/bind-announce - --------------------------END INCLUDED TEXT-------------------- You have received this e-mail bulletin as a result of your organisation's registration with AusCERT.
