1) Insufficient verification of data authenticity (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-10846)

CWE-ID: CWE-345 - Insufficient Verification of Data Authenticity

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to spoof DNS responses and inject arbitrary DNS data.

The vulnerability exists due to improper response validation in the ldns stub resolver when processing UDP DNS responses. A remote attacker can send a spoofed UDP response to spoof DNS responses and inject arbitrary DNS data.

The issue affects ldns when used as a stub resolver over UDP and can be exploited by an off-path adversary that cannot observe the original query.
