The compress_add_dlabel_points function in dns/Compress.c in MaraDNS 1.4.03, 1.4.05, and possibly other versions allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long DNS hostname with a large number of labels, triggering a heap-based buffer overflow
