[Bug 1085593] Re: bind 9.8.1-P1 crashes with an assertion failure

[Robie Basak]

Thanks.

If this happens with valid zone files, it sounds like an important issue
to me for a stable release. I can imagine scenarios where server serving
a large number of zones could crash due to a single customer, or
something like that. bind should not crash. So I'm marking this as
Importance: High based on a "severe impact" justification.

I've answered your question about updating to 9.8.4 on askubuntu. If
you'd like to volunteer to drive a micro release exception for bind,
then please go ahead, but whichever way I think it'll be quicker and
easier to resolve this particular issue with a traditional SRU. It would
really help with this if you could identify the upstream commits that
fixes this issue. And are you able to link to your conversation with
upstream, please?

** Changed in: bind9 (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Medium => High
