Sourceware 30842 0 P2 RESOLVED Stack read overflow in getaddrinfo in no-aaaa mode (CVE-2023-4527) 2024-10-08 11:52:49 UTC

Description Mauro Matteo Cascella 2023-08-25 08:25:31 UTC 
If the system is configured in no-aaaa mode via /etc/resolv.conf, getaddrinfo is called for the AF_UNSPEC address family, and a DNS response is received over TCP that is larger than 2048 bytes, getaddrinfo may potentially disclose stack contents via the returned address data, or crash. While name lookup normally just fails incorrectly, crashes are not difficult to trigger, with valid DNS responses that are propagated by DNS resolvers.
