New bind packages are available for Slackware 8.1, 9.0, 9.1, 10.0, 10.1, 10.2, 11.0, and 12.0 to fix security issues. The first issue which allows remote attackers to make recursive queries only affects Slackware 12.0. The second issue is the discovery that BIND9's query IDs are cryptographically weak. This issue affects the versions of BIND9 in all supported Slackware versions.
