Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-19662)

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

CVSSv4: 8.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free in qpcache NOQNAME proof handling when processing crafted DNSSEC responses from an attacker-controlled authoritative server. A remote attacker can send a particular sequence of crafted DNS answers to cause a denial of service.

Exploitation requires inducing the resolver to issue multiple queries for a DNSSEC-signed zone and relies on the responses arriving in a particular order and with particular timing.
