10-07-2008, 12:08
Hello,

A VERY IMPORTANT security bug was discovered today on
software BIND (DNS). It is possible to make an attack
on DNS servers and pollute the DNS server with false information
on the resolution of domain names. The exploit is not yet published
(Fault is really too severe), but soon it will be published (soon),
many hackers are fun to pollute DNS servers that have this
security hole and the final rédiriger visitors on false servers
WEB, false email servers.

This vulnerability has been EXTREMENT important and it is IMPERATIVE to
updates your DNS server on your dedicated server and the RPS.

If you are under the Release 1 and Release 2, just execute
patch-all and the server automatically updates.
Ftp://ftp.ovh.net/made-in-ovh/release/patch-all.sh # wget-O-all.sh patch;
Sh # patch-all.sh

If you are in total security, Ovh handles update your
system. You have nothing to do.

If you are Debian / Ubuntu, use apt-get to update your system.
If you are Gentoo, use emerge to update your system.
If you're Fedora / CentOS, use yum to update your system.
If you are in Susa, use yast to update your system.

Regards,

Octave

In kimsufi.general oles@ovh.net was written:

Good evening,
An error in the patch-all in the release 1 (only).
The patch-all for release 2 running without problem.

-- If you've already executed, it is likely that your DNS server is not
restarting properly. You have an error following:
/ usr / sbin / named-checkconf: error while loading shared libraries:
libisccfg.so.0: can not open shared object file: No such file or
Directory
In this case, just me on oles@ovh.net with the name of
your server and I'll fix the problem (it takes the retelecharger
. rpm and reappliquer with rpm-Uvh ).

-- If you've already executed during the correction of this little bug you
must restart the patch and it will automatically correct the BUG.

-- If you have not yet launched the patch-all, you can do
eyes closed. People come to retest on a dedicated server 20ène
different. It works perfectly now.

Sorry for the error.

A your patches:
Ftp://ftp.ovh.net/made-in-ovh/release/patch-all.sh # wget-O-all.sh patch;

An error has occured on the patch-all in the release 1 (only).
The patch-all for the release 2 is running without any problems.

- If you have already executed it, it is likely that your DNS server has not restarted properly. You have the following error:
/usr /sbin / named-checkconf: error while loading shared libraries:
libisccfg.so.0: can not open shared object file: No such file or Directory

If this is the case, just email me at oles@ovh.net with the name of your server and I will fix the problem (I have to downloaded the .rpm again and I will reapply them with rpm-Uvh ).

- If you have already executed it during the correction of this little bug, then you must restart the patch and it will automatically correct the BUG.

- If you have not launched the patch-all yet, you can do it with your eyes closed. We have just re-tested it on about 20 different dedicated servers. It works perfectly now.

Our apologies for the error.

Your patchs:
# wget ftp://ftp.ovh.net/made-in-ovh/release/patch-all.sh -O patch-all.sh;
# sh patch-all.sh

Hello,

The exploit is not yet published (Fault is really too severe), but as soon as it will be published (soon), many hackers will have fun to pollute DNS servers that have this security bug and finally to redirect visitors to false WEB servers or false email servers etc.

This security bug is EXTREMELY important and it is IMPERATIVE to update your DNS server on your dedicated server or RPS.

If you are under the Release 1 or Release 2, just execute the patch-all and the server will be automatically updated.

# wget ftp://ftp.ovh.net/made-in-ovh/release/patch-all.sh -O patch-all.sh;
# sh patch-all.sh

If you have taken the Full Security option, Ovh takes care of the update of your system. You have nothing to do.

If you are under Debian / Ubuntu, use apt-get to update your system.
If you are under Gentoo, use emerge to update your system.
If you're under Fedora / CentOS, use yum to update your system.
If you are in Suse, use yast to update your system.
