"According to the versions of the dnsmasq packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by
the following vulnerabilities :
A heap-based out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the DHCPv6 implementation of dnsmasq allows local
attackers to execute arbitrary code with root privileges via a crafted DHCPv6 packet.(CVE-2026-4892)
dnsmasqs extract_name() function can be abused to cause a heap buffer overflow, allowing an attacker to
inject false DNS cache entries, which could result in DNS lookups to redirect to an attacker-controlled IP
address, or to cause a DoS.(CVE-2026-2291)
A buffer overflow in dnsmasq's extract_addresses() function allows an attacker to trigger a heap out-of-
bounds read and crash by exploiting a malformed DNS response, enabling extract_name() to advance the
pointer past the record's end.(CVE-2026-5172)
An information disclosure vulnerability in dnsmasq allows remote attackers to bypass source checks via a
crafted DNS packet with RFC 7871 client subnet information.(CVE-2026-4893)
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS dnsmasq security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
