Yes it is, at least CVE-2015-7547. And it should be patched ASAP.

As an interim band-aid, something like this in rc.firewall.local might help:

iptables -A CUSTOMINPUT -p udp -m udp --dport 53 -m length --length 513:65535 -j DROP
iptables -A CUSTOMINPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 53 -m length --length 1025:65535 -j DROP
