CVE-2023-31130

ares_inet_net_pton() is found to be vulnerable to a buffer underflow for certain ipv6 addresses, in particular '0::00:00:00/2' was found to cause an issue. c-ares only uses this function internally for configuration purposes, however external usage for other purposes may cause more severe issues.

CVE-2023-32067

Target resolver may erroneously interprets a malformed UDP packet with a length of 0 as a graceful shutdown of the connection, which could cause a denial of service.

For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version 1.14.0-1+deb10u3.

We recommend that you upgrade your c-ares packages.

For the detailed security status of c-ares please refer to its security tracker page at: [link moved to references]
