Package        : pdns-recursor
Vulnerability  : design flaw
Problem type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s)      : CVE-2008-1637

Amit Klein discovered that pdns-recursor, a caching DNS resolver, uses a
weak random number generator to create DNS transaction IDs and UDP
source port numbers.  As a result, cache poisoning attacks were
simplified. (CVE-2008-1637)

For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
version 3.1.4-1+etch1.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 3.1.5-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your pdns-recursor package.
