MEDIUM 4.3

Dnsmasq: dnsmasq: heap out-of-bounds read in dhcpv6 option 39 fqdn decoder

CVSS Score
4.3
EPSS Score
0.0%
EPSS Percentile
0th

A flaw was found in dnsmasq. The DHCPv6 client hostname parser can read one byte past the end of a crafted FQDN option because it checks the next label length before confirming the pointer is still inside the option. An attacker on the local network can trigger this with a single DHCPv6 packet. The extra byte is not returned to the client or logged, and no crash has been demonstrated.
