Description OSIDB Bzimport 2024-09-04 10:57:43 UTC 
The affected versions (1.12.0 and 1.12.1) of aardvark-dns introduced TCP support but processed DNS queries serially. This flaw can be exploited by a malicious client to maintain an open TCP connection indefinitely, resulting in a denial of service for other DNS queries.
