I am not aware of any exploits in BIND 8.x or 4.9.6. The article almost certainly referred to the exploit in 4.9.5 (and earlier) which 4.9.6 fixed. BIND 8.x is not vulnerable. Which version of FreeBSD are you using? 2.2.5 comes with 4.9.6, anything earlier, like 2.2.1 probably has 4.9.5 or older and should be updated.
