Dear all,

We have an emergency quick-fix release, version 4.11.1 for NSD.

NSD 4.11.1 is available:

NSD version 4.11.0 had a serious bug in which applying updates to zones 
(and other modifications that require a reload, such as adding and 
deleting zones), could stop entirely after reception of a broken or 
corrupted update via zone transfer. We believe that this broken state 
would appear as one of the NSD processes consuming 100% CPU. Version 
4.11.1 has this corrected as well as some other smaller non-critical bugs.

We strongly advise to not run NSD version 4.11.0, and if you have it 
deployed already, upgrade to 4.11.1 at the earliest possible opportunity.
