| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in hickory-proto. This vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by exhausting system CPU resources. When encoding Domain Name System (DNS) messages, the BinEncoder component performs inefficient repeated searches to compress domain names. An attacker can exploit this issue by sending crafted DNS messages containing numerous records, triggering excessive processing overhead and causing the application to become unresponsive.
