The 9.3.4 affects FCL-5,6


		BIND 9.3.4 is now available.

BIND 9.3.4 is a security release for BIND 9.3.

        BIND 9.3.4 contains security fixes:

2126.	[security]	Serialise validation of type ANY responses. [RT #16555]

2124.	[security]	It was possible to dereference a freed fetch
			context. [RT #16584]

2089.	[security]	Raise the minimum safe OpenSSL versions to
			OpenSSL 0.9.7l and OpenSSL 0.9.8d.  Versions
			prior to these have known security flaws which
			are (potentially) exploitable in named. [RT #16391]

2088.	[security]	Change the default RSA exponent from 3 to 65537.
			[RT #16391]

2066.   [security]      Handle SIG queries gracefully. [RT #16300]

1941.   [bug]           ncache_adderesult() should set eresult even if no
                        rdataset is passed to it. [RT #15642]

        If you are running a BIND 9.3.x or BIND 9.4.x version without
        these changes you are advised to upgrade as soon as possible to
        one of BIND 9.3.4 or BIND 9.4.0rc2.
