A bug in the

retransmit timeout. By sending packets with specific values in the TCP
timestamp option, an attacker can cause a system panic.

's mod_include module fails to properly validate the length of
user supplied tag strings prior to copying them to a local buffer,
causing a buffer overflow.

thus slow DNS queries.
