Subject:   Is FreeBSD susceptible to BIND vulnerability?

There was an advisory about BIND posted to Slashdot today:
http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=01/01/30/0435256&mode=thread

I am concerned -- does this affect FreeBSD?  I am running a somewhat
4.2-STABLE (buildworld done around Dec 5 of last year).  The BIND version
string is:

Jan 30 21:27:11 borg-cube named[20011]: starting.  named 8.2.3-T5B Mon Sep
25 23:37:47 GMT 2000 jkh@narf.osd.bsdi.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/usr.sbin/named

If this affects me, has this problem been corrected in the latest
4.2-STABLE code?  (if so, then I will cvsup and make buildworld RIGHT
NOW!!!) :)

Please let me know, thanks!
