+bind9 (1:9.4.0-1) experimental; urgency=low
+
+ As of bind 9.4, allow-query-cache and allow-recursion default to the
+ builtin acls 'localnets' and 'localhost'. If you are setting up a
+ name server for a network, you will almost certainly need to change
+ this.
+
+ The change in default has been done to make caching servers less
+ attractive as reflective amplifying targets for spoofed traffic.
+ This still leaves authoritative servers exposed.
+
+ The best fix is for full BCP 38 deployment to remove spoofed traffic.
