CVE-2006-4096
BIND before 9.2.6-P1 and 9.3.x before 9.3.2-P1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a flood of recursive queries, which cause an INSIST failure when the response is received after the recursion queue is empty.

Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (8.43%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
