New bind packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1, 14.2, and -current to fix a security issue
Here are the details from the Slackware 14.2 ChangeLog:
+--------------------------+
patches/packages/bind-9.10.4_P3-i586-1_slack14.2.txz: Upgraded.
This update fixes a denial-of-service vulnerability. Testing by ISC has
uncovered a critical error condition which can occur when a nameserver is
constructing a response. A defect in the rendering of messages into
packets can cause named to exit with an assertion failure in buffer.c while
constructing a response to a query that meets certain criteria.
