The DNS server bind9 has been updated to the new release 9.8.4-P1 which

* Denial of service when DNSSEC validation and the managed-keys feature
  are enabled (CVE-2015-1349). Both not enabled in UCS by default.
* Denial of service: crash in DNSSEC validation of specially crafted
  zone data (CVE-2015-4620). Not enabled in UCS by default.
* An error in handling TKEY queries could be used to trigger a
  REQUIRE assertion failure leading to denial of service against
  named (CVE-2015-5477).
