DescriptionNVD

A flaw was found in dnsmasq. A remote attacker could exploit an out-of-bounds write vulnerability by sending a specially crafted BOOTREPLY (Bootstrap Protocol Reply) packet to a dnsmasq server configured with the --dhcp-split-relay option. This can lead to memory corruption, causing the dnsmasq daemon to crash and resulting in a denial of service (DoS).

AnalysisAI

Out-of-bounds write in dnsmasq's DHCP split-relay handler allows remote unauthenticated denial of service via crafted BOOTREPLY packets. Affects Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6-10 and OpenShift Container Platform 4 when dnsmasq runs with the --dhcp-split-relay option enabled. …

Sign in for full analysis, threat intelligence, and remediation guidance.

RemediationAI

Within 24 hours: Inventory all dnsmasq deployments across RHEL 6-10 and OpenShift 4 systems and identify which instances run with --dhcp-split-relay enabled via process inspection and configuration audit. Within 7 days: Disable the --dhcp-split-relay option where feasible or migrate affected services to alternative DHCP relay solutions; document any business justification for retention. …
