There will be an Athena 9.0 patch release this evening to correct
recently discovered security holes in BIND. There are no changes
other than a fixed /etc/athena/named binary.
(Athena 9.1 machines are unaffected by the security holes, since they
use a newer and unaffected version of BIND, and since they don't
listen on the network for name service requests.)
If you have a machine set AUTOUPDATE=false, you can update it manually
after the release goes out by doing a console login as root and
running "update_ws".
Please send any questions or comments to release-team@mit.edu.
