>Number: 11727 >Category: ports >Synopsis: Character combinations halting bind8 >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-ports >State: open >Quarter: >Keywords: >Date-Required: >Class: sw-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Sat May 15 15:20:01 PDT 1999 >Closed-Date: >Last-Modified: >Originator: System Administratos >Release: FreeBSD 3.1-STABLE i386 >Organization: UNACOM Webhosting >Environment: None >Description: when adding a database to the bind a file called 'pics4you' would cause bind to halt on a reload or restart, however when the said file was renamed to picsforyou.db the bind successfully completed reloading/restarting named. You first thought was that bind may treat 's4' or '4u' as a code, and thus choke over it, since we have other letter/number combinations such as 'web4cheap.db' which bind handles without problems. >How-To-Repeat: As stated above our only problem with letter/number combinations was from the file 'pics4you.db', so spoofing this domain (or attempting to enter a similar name for a db file) should repeat this problem. >Fix: Unknown >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
