As of the 8th of January 2003, no actual security problems with PowerDNS 2.9.4 or later are known about. This page will be updated with all bugs which are deemed to be security problems, or could conceivably lead to those. Any such notifications will also be sent to all PowerDNS mailinglists and BUGTRAQ.
All versions of PowerDNS before 2.9 are known to suffer from remote denial of service problems which can disrupt operation. Please upgrade to 2.9.4 as this page will only contain detailed security information from 2.9.4 onwards.
If you have a security problem to report, please email us at both <powerdns@powerdns.com>
