[3.8] bind: Multiple vulnerabilities (CVE-2018-5743, CVE-2019-6467)
CVE-2018-5743: Limiting simultaneous TCP clients is ineffective
By design, BIND is intended to limit the number of TCP clients that can
be connected at any given time. The number of allowed connections is a
tunable parameter which, if unset, defaults to a conservative value
for
most servers. Unfortunately, the code which was intended to limit the
number of simultaneous connections contains an error which can be
exploited to grow the number of simultaneous connections beyond this
limit.
Affected Versions:
BIND 9.9.0 ->9.10.8-P1, 9.11.0 ->9.11.6, 9.12.0 ->9.12.4,
9.14.0. BIND 9 Supported Preview Edition versions 9.9.3-S1 ->
9.11.5-S3, and 9.11.5-S5.
Versions 9.13.0 ->9.13.7 of the 9.13 development branch are also
affected.
Fixed In Version:
bind 9.11.6-P1, bind 9.12.4-P1, bind 9.14.1

CVE-2019-6467: flaw in nxredirect can cause assertion failure
A programming error in the nxdomain-redirect feature can cause an
assertion failure in query.c if the alternate namespace used by
nxdomain-redirect is a descendant of a zone that is served locally.
The most likely scenario where this might occur is if the server, in
addition to performing NXDOMAIN redirection for recursive clients, is
also serving a local copy of the root zone or using mirroring
to provide the root zone, although other configurations are also
possible.
Affected Versions:
BIND 9.12.0->9.12.4, 9.14.0. Also affects all releases in the 9.13 development branch.
Fixed In Version:
bind 9.12.4-P1, bind 9.14.1

main/bind: security upgrade to 9.12.4_p1 (CVE-2018-5743,CVE-2019-6467)
This release introduced 3 new tools with python dependency
(dnssec-checkdns, dnssec-coverage and dnssec-keymgr). Move those tools
to a subpackage, bind-dnssec-tools, to avoid unexpectedly pull in python
as dependency for stable upgraders.
There are other tools in bind-tools that belongs to bind-dnssec-tools,
but we dont move those in a stable branch to avoid breaking things for
current users.
Include patch to fix build on non-x86:
