An extract of said post is below the sig. There wasn't a single response (I could be wrong about that, but don't believe that is the case at this time). kind regards/ldv/vaden at texoma.net ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Larry Vaden <vaden at texoma.net> Date: Sun, Jan 23, 2011 at 8:03 PM Subject: sources of bind-9.7.2-P3 rpms for Centos 4.8 and 5.5? To: centos at centos.org Our site running Centos 4.8 and 5.5 name servers was hacked with the result that www.yahoo.com is now within our /19 and causing some grief. Google hasn't led me to an RPM for bind-9.7.2-P3 nor has the search facility at centos.org. However, it is obvious from said searches that Mandriva upgraded last year. An attempt to install bind-9.7.2-P3 from source yields the warning below the sig for both 4.8 and 5.5 machines. Does anyone know of RPMs that address the security issues involved? RANT: does anyone know of the upstream's justification for providing such old code? kind regards/ldv WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING Your OpenSSL crypto library may be vulnerable to WARNING WARNING one or more of the the following known security WARNING WARNING flaws: WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING CAN-2002-0659, CAN-2006-4339, CVE-2006-2937 and WARNING WARNING CVE-2006-2940.
