Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain) DNS-over-HTTPS implementation. A remote attacker could send specially crafted HTTP/2 traffic to a DNS-over-HTTPS endpoint, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. This could trigger memory corruption, potentially allowing the attacker to cause a denial of service or, in some cases, execute arbitrary code.
