Hi all,

We released PowerDNS Authoritative Server 4.1.7 and 4.0.7 today, fixing an 
important security issue in the HTTP remote backend that has recently been 
reported to us.  Setups that are not using this backend are not impacted by 
this issue.  More information can be found in the corresponding security 
advisory:

- PowerDNS Security Advisory 2019-03 (CVE-2019-3871): Insufficient validation 
in the HTTP remote backend[1]

It affects PowerDNS Authoritative Server up to and including 4.1.6.  Please 
note that at the time of writing, PowerDNS Authoritative Server 3.4 and below 
are no longer supported, as described in 
https://doc.powerdns.com/authoritative/appendices/EOL.html .

Minimal patches are available at 
https://downloads.powerdns.com/patches/2019-03/ .
