CVE-2000-0335 is classified as a high-severity vulnerability due to its potential for DNS spoofing attacks.
To mitigate CVE-2000-0335, upgrade the glibc to a version later than 2.1.3 and ensure that BIND is updated to a secure version.
CVE-2000-0335 affects systems using glibc version 2.1.3 and earlier, as well as specific versions of ISC BIND.
CVE-2000-0335 can be exploited by local attackers to spoof DNS query results, leading to potential data interception or redirection.
CVE-2000-0335 cannot be reversed; the only effective solution is to upgrade to secure versions of the affected software.
