+ <p>Marek Vavrusa and Lubos Slovak report:</p>
+ <blockquote cite="http://www.nlnetlabs.nl/downloads/CVE-2012-2978.txt">
+ <p>It is possible to crash (SIGSEGV) a NSD child server process
+ by sending it a non-standard DNS packet from any host on the
+ internet. A crashed child process will automatically be restarted
+ by the parent process, but an attacker may keep the NSD server
+ occupied restarting child processes by sending it a stream of
+ such packets effectively preventing the NSD server to serve.</p>
