zeroconf has unbounded DNS record cache that allows LAN-local memory exhaustion via multicast flood

Impact DNSCache.asyncadd inserted every response record into cache, expirations, expireheap, and servicecache with no cap on entry count. The only pre-existing protection was a PTR TTL floor DNSPTRMINTTL = 1125 s, RFC 6762 §10, which actually prolonged attacker-injected records, and a periodic...

Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

Overview zeroconf is a Pure Python Multicast DNS Service Discovery Library Bonjour/Avahi compatible Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling via the DNSCache.asyncadd. Any unauthenticated host on the local link can exhaust system...

Impact DNSIncoming. decode labels at offset 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...

CVE-2026-45913

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's bridge multicast module. This vulnerability arises from an inconsistency in how the system tracks multicast database entries mdbnentries for virtual local area network VLAN contexts. A local user with network configuration privileges could exploit this by...

CVE-2026-45913

In CVE-2026-45913, the Linux kernel fix targets the bridge multicast code: it always updates mdb_n_entries for VLAN contexts instead of conditional increases, addressing a syzbot warning about unbalanced updates. The solution initializes the counter on port-vlan context creation and increments/de...
