zeroconf: Unbounded exception-dedup state retains packet buffers via traceback frame locals, enabling LAN-local memory exhaustion

ImpactDNSIncoming.logexceptiondebug and the four QuietLogger exception-dedup methods stored an unbounded seenlogs dict keyed by strsys.excinfo1. The seven IncomingDecodeError messages raised from readname / decodelabelsatoffset RFC 6762 §18 name-decoding error paths all embed self.source — the...

Impact DNSCache. async add inserted every response record into cache, expirations, expire heap, and service cache with no cap on entry count. The only pre-existing protection was a PTR TTL floor DNS PTR MIN TTL = 1125 s, RFC 6762 §10, which actually prolonged attacker-injected records, and a...
