In terms of issuing a Debian security update: MaraDNS 2 is not affected and does not need to be patched. I have a minimal patch fixing only this security issue: http://maradns.org/download/patches/maradns-1.3-secret_hash.patch The patch requires /dev/urnadom; Debian has this. [1] While there isn't a CVE for this issue in relation to MaraDNS, the problem is covered by CERT VU#903934 [2] - Sam [1] There really isn't much out there besides DOS and Windows that doesn't have /dev/urandom these days. [2] This will hopefully preclude Debian's bureaucratic hoop of needing a vulnerability number before patching MaraDNS
