      (bsc#1268341)

      packet buffers via traceback frame locals, enabling LAN-local memory
      exhaustion (bsc#1268342)
    - CVE-2026-47184: zeroconf has unbounded DNS record cache that allows
      LAN-local memory exhaustion via multicast flood (bsc#1268343)

      payload readers allows LAN-local cache corruption via crafted mDNS
      packet (bsc#1268235)
