Bjoern A. Zeeb 3571e53040 Import FreeBSD Security Advisories and Errata Notices, as well as their 
patches for easier mirroring, to eliminate a special copy, to make
www.freebsd.org/security a full copy of security.freebsd.org and be
eventually be the same.

For now files are just sitting there.   The symlinks are missing.

CVE Name: CVE-2012-1667
For general information regarding FreeBSD Security Advisories,
including descriptions of the fields above, security branches, and the
following sections, please visit <URL:http://security.FreeBSD.org/>.
I. Background
BIND 9 is an implementation of the Domain Name System (DNS) protocols.
The named(8) daemon is an Internet Domain Name Server.
II. Problem Description
The named(8) server does not properly handle DNS resource records where
the RDATA field is zero length, which may cause various issues for the
servers handling them.
III. Impact
Resolving servers may crash or disclose some portion of memory to the
client. Authoritative servers may crash on restart after transferring a
zone containing records with zero-length RDATA fields. These would
result in a denial of service, or leak of sensitive information.
IV. Workaround
No workaround is available, but systems not running the BIND name
server are not affected.
V. Solution
Perform one of the following:
1) Upgrade your vulnerable system to 7-STABLE, 8-STABLE, or 9-STABLE,
or to the RELENG_7_4, RELENG_8_3, RELENG_8_2, RELENG_8_1, or RELENG_9_0
security branch dated after the correction date.
2) To update your vulnerable system via a source code patch:
The following patches have been verified to apply to FreeBSD 7.4,
8.3, 8.2, 8.1 and 9.0 systems.
a) Download the relevant patch from the location below, and verify the
detached PGP signature using your PGP utility.
[FreeBSD 7.4-RELEASE, 8.3-RELEASE, 8.2-RELEASE, and 8.1-RELEASE]
# fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-12:03/bind.patch
# fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-12:03/bind.patch.asc
[FreeBSD 9.0-RELEASE]
# fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-12:03/bind-90.patch
# fetch http://security.FreeBSD.org/patches/SA-12:03/bind-90.patch.asc
b) Execute the following commands as root:
# cd /usr/src
# patch < /path/to/patch
# cd /usr/src/lib/bind/
# make obj && make depend && make && make install
# cd /usr/src/usr.sbin/named
# make obj && make depend && make && make install
3) To update your vulnerable system via a binary patch:
Systems running 7.4-RELEASE, 8.3-RELEASE, 8.2-RELEASE, 8.1-RELEASE,
or 9.0-RELEASE on the i386 or amd64 platforms can be updated via the
freebsd-update(8) utility:
# freebsd-update fetch
# freebsd-update install
4) Install and run BIND from the Ports Collection after the correction
date. The following versions and newer versions of BIND installed from
the Ports Collection are not affected by this vulnerability:
bind96-9.6.3.1.ESV.R7.1
bind97-9.7.6.1
bind98-9.8.3.1
bind99-9.9.1.1
