dnrd Domain Name Relay Daemon Denial of Service Vulnerability
dnrd (Domain Name Relay Daemon) is a freely available, open-source proxy name server. There is a lack of sufficient bounds checking in DNS request and reply functions. As a result, it is possible for a remote attacker to cause a denial of service to legitimate users of dnrd. It is not known whether it is possible to execute arbitrary attacker-supplied instructions as a result of this vulnerability.
Mitigation:
Ensure that all DNS requests and replies are properly validated and sanitized.
