A client might theoretically be able to cause a mismatch between queries sent to a backend and the received responses by sending a flood of perfectly timed queries that are routed to a TCP-only or DNS over TLS backend.
AnalysisAI
dnsdist can experience a denial-of-service condition through query-response mismatching when a client sends precisely timed floods of queries routed to TCP-only or DNS over TLS backends. An adjacent network attacker with high timing precision can cause limited availability impact by desynchronizing the query-response correlation on affected backends, though exploitation requires favorable network conditions and careful query timing. …
