Actually, as I posted to the original author, the packets are exactly what
is produced by the namedexploit.c exploit, postead in the article "named
warez" early on BUGTRAQ. I am pretty sure this is not a new exploit, this
is namedexploit.c

The packets are what you get if you attack a server with

namedexploit ns.yourvictim.org 4 1

My apologies if this problem is already known.

The attached file is a tcpdump written out, of a person i know, testing
a new exploit for bind on me. To read this file and make any sense of it:

tcpdump -vvxr scanme2

It would appear to be another buffer overflow, and triggering it with
sending mass "9090" to something. We are looking further into this, but do
not yet have a exploit for it, but are a bit more concearned with a patch.
It looks like it was spawned off the idea of the inverse query exploit.

Also, at first look it appears the problem probally originates in
ns_resp.c, under the /named directory in source. And the code I sent
happens to corrupt the stack by adding "909090909090~" on the end of
packets, corrupting the stack, crashing named, after leaving a root shell.

It is also rumored that there are two version of this exploit already out,
one a bit more public than the other, this one was the unreleased, not
very public version.

*side note*
Ive definetly got some of this wrong, but any information would be very
helpfull on it.
