| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in CoreDNS, a DNS server that chains plugins. A remote attacker can exploit this flaw by sending specially crafted DNS queries. This vulnerability exists in CoreDNS's loop detection plugin due to the use of a predictable pseudo-random number generator (PRNG) for generating a secret query name. Successful exploitation can lead to a denial of service (DoS) by crashing the DNS server.
