Vulnerability from github – Published: 2021-08-25 20:43 – Updated: 2023-06-13 22:25
VLAI?
Summary
Uncontrolled recursion in trust-dns-proto
Details

There's a stack overflow leading to a crash when Trust-DNS's parses a malicious DNS packet. Affected versions of this crate did not properly handle parsing of DNS message compression (RFC1035 section 4.1.4). The parser could be tricked into infinite loop when a compression offset pointed back to the same domain name to be parsed. This allows an attacker to craft a malicious DNS packet which when consumed with Trust-DNS could cause stack overflow and crash the affected software.

Severity ?
7.5 (High)
