| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in hickory-resolver. A remote attacker controlling a malicious Domain Name System (DNS) server can cause a Denial of Service (DoS) through query amplification. By returning responses containing irrelevant Canonical Name (CNAME) records outside the requested resolution chain, an attacker induces the resolver into issuing unnecessary queries. This can lead to excessive network traffic and resource exhaustion.
