Important: perl-Net-DNS

Issue Overview: Net::DNS versions through 1.55 for Perl allow Denial of Service via deep DNS compression pointer chains. Net::DNS::DomainName::decode follows RFC 1035 compression pointers by recursing into itself with no depth limit. It is possible to construct a name which saturates the call sta...

CVE-2026-64194

Net::DNS versions through 1.55 for Perl allow Denial of Service via deep DNS compression pointer chains. Net::DNS::DomainName::decode follows RFC 1035 compression pointers by recursing into itself with no depth limit. It is possible to construct a name which saturates the call stack at least with...

CVE-2026-64194: Uncontrolled Recursion

Net::DNS versions through 1.55 for Perl allow Denial of Service via deep DNS compression pointer chains. Net::DNS::DomainName::decode follows RFC 1035 compression pointers by recursing into itself with no depth limit. It is possible to construct a name which saturates the call stack at least with...

Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2026-64194

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available. - Net::DNS versions through 1.55 for Perl allow Denial of Service via deep DNS compression pointer chains. Net::DNS::DomainName::decode follows RFC 1035 compressi...

CVE-2026-47180 Zeroconf: Unbounded recursion in DNS compression-pointer decoder allows LAN-local denial of service

Zeroconf is a pure Python implementation of multicast DNS service discovery. Prior to 0.149.5, DNSIncoming.decodelabelsatoffset recurses once per DNS-name compression pointer, and a single mDNS packet carrying chained pointers can trigger a RecursionError that escapes DNSIncoming.init, causing...

c-ares: c-ares: CPU exhaustion denial of service via unbounded DNS name compression pointer chains

A flaw was found in c-ares, an asynchronous resolver library. The 'aresdnsnameparse' function does not properly limit the total pointer hops or assembled name length when enforcing backward DNS compression pointers. A remote attacker, operating a malicious DNS server, can send a specially crafted...

GHSA-9PGC-3CCV-5297 zeroconf has unbounded recursion in DNS compression-pointer decoder that allows LAN-local denial of service

Impact DNSIncoming.decodelabelsatoffset recurses once per DNS-name compression pointer RFC 1035 §4.1.4. Pointer cycles and label counts were capped, but the chain length of unique forward pointers was not. A single 3 kB mDNS packet carrying 1500 chained pointers drives the recursion past CPython'...

Important: python-twisted

Issue Overview: The twisted.names module is vulnerable to a Denial of Service DoS attack via resource exhaustion during DNS name decompression. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this by sending a crafted TCP DNS packet containing deeply chained compression pointers. This flaw bypasse...

CVE-2026-42304

The CVE-2026-42304 issue affects Twisted (twisted.names) up to version 26.4.0rc2. Root cause: the DNS name decoder in twisted.names.dns.Name.decode lacks a limit on pointer dereferences per DNS message, and the per-question visited state can reset, enabling an attacker to craft TCP DNS packets wi...

Twisted has a Denial of Service (DoS) in twisted.names via Crafted DNS Compression Pointer Chains
