K16909 : BIND vulnerability CVE-2015-5477

Security Advisory Description

An error in the handling of TKEY queries can be exploited by an attacker for use as a denial-of-service vector, as a constructed packet can use the defect to trigger a REQUIRE assertion failure, causing BIND to exit. (CVE-2015-5477)
Impact
A remote attacker may be able to cause a denial-of-service (DoS) attack on the BIG-IP system’s local instance of BIND by using a specially crafted DNS request in configurations that expose BIND to requests from untrusted users.
Note: If theBIND daemon stops responding, services that do not rely on the use of local instances of BIND will continue to function.
