This time it's an item that affects DNSSEC which was supposed to be the savior for the Kaminsky flaw. The good news though is this time, the issue is relatively minor and DNS has already been patched.
"The flaw is specific to certain usages of DNSSEC," Joao Damas, senior programming manager, ISC told InternetNews.com. "It is strongly advised that all BIND DNSSEC deployments update in case they are using the particular pattern affected (DSA keys in some cases) and to prevent coming across the problem in the future unexpectedly.""
