I'm not sure whether this was mentioned on SLUG, but all versions of Bind
below 8.2.3-REL are vulnerable to a remote root exploit - already
available in Script Kiddy Format(tm).

The Redhat packages are already avaiable at mirror.aarnet - as is the
source at www.isc.org

Please tell your fellow admins, because the last time this happened with
bind, there were whole piles of rootshells created all over the 'net.

Oh, and don't forget to hide your version.bind in your chaos class for a
bit of obscurity.
