An update that solves three vulnerabilities can now be installed.

## Description:

This update for bind fixes the following issues:

Update to 9.16.50:

  * Bug Fixes:
  * A regression in cache-cleaning code enabled memory use to grow significantly
    more quickly than before, until the configured max-cache-size limit was
    reached. This has been fixed.
  * Using rndc flush inadvertently caused cache cleaning to become less
    effective. This could ultimately lead to the configured max-cache-size limit
    being exceeded and has now been fixed.
  * The logic for cleaning up expired cached DNS records was tweaked to be more
    aggressive. This change helps with enforcing max-cache-ttl and max-ncache-
    ttl in a timely manner.
  * It was possible to trigger a use-after-free assertion when the overmem cache
    cleaning was initiated. This has been fixed. New Features:
  * Added RESOLVER.ARPA to the built in empty zones.
  * Security Fixes:
  * It is possible to craft excessively large numbers of resource record types
    for a given owner name, which has the effect of slowing down database
    processing. This has been addressed by adding a configurable limit to the
    number of records that can be stored per name and type in a cache or zone
    database. The default is 100, which can be tuned with the new max-types-per-
    name option. (CVE-2024-1737, bsc#1228256)
  * Validating DNS messages signed using the SIG(0) protocol (RFC 2931) could
    cause excessive CPU load, leading to a denial-of-service condition. Support
    for SIG(0) message validation was removed from this version of named.
    (CVE-2024-1975, bsc#1228257)
  * When looking up the NS records of parent zones as part of looking up DS
    records, it was possible for named to trigger an assertion failure if serve-
    stale was enabled. This has been fixed. (CVE-2024-4076, bsc#1228258)
