A vulnerability has been identified in SCO OpenServer, which may be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service. This flaw is due to a buffer overflow error in the code for recursion and glue fetching in BIND, which could allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service via queries that trigger the overflow in the "q_usedns" array that tracks nameservers and addresses.
