Description

hi,

VyOS 1.2.0-EPA2 includes pdns-recursor 4.0.4-1+deb9u3~bpo8+1. If I read the Debian Changelog on

https://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs/main/p/pdns-recursor/pdns-recursor_4.0.4-1+deb9u3~bpo8+1_changelog

right we should have some security bugs open:

https://blog.powerdns.com/2018/11/06/powerdns-authoritative-server-4-0-6-4-1-5-and-recursor-4-0-9-4-1-5-released/

"Recursor 4.0.9

This release fixes the following security advisories:

It is fixed in the lates powerdns recursor 4.0.9 or we should update direct to 4.1 releases.
