Package: bind9
Version: 1:9.8.1.dfsg.P1-4.2
Followup-For: Bug #690569

Problem exists in current Debian Version of bind9.  This is broken behaviour
with regards RFC4035 Section 3.1.3 and maybe some parts of RFC4952.

This means the version of bind in unstable and testing is non functional for
the purposes of being used as a resolver when DNSSEC validation is required.

Turning off DNSSEC resolution to work around this significantly reduces the
authenticity around the DNS response.  This makes this version of bind9
far more open to Kaminsky DNS cache posioning attacks.

Severity of bug whould be raised to grave.  Resolution is obvious, move
cod base to at least latest ISC 9.8.x Bind 9, which is 9.8.4. 

Cheers,

Matthew Grant
