K52114338 : systemd vulnerability CVE-2017-9445

Security Advisory Description

In systemd through 233, certain sizes passed to dns_packet_new in systemd-resolved can cause it to allocate a buffer that’s too small. A malicious DNS server can exploit this via a response with a specially crafted TCP payload to trick systemd-resolved into allocating a buffer that’s too small, and subsequently write arbitrary data beyond the end of it. (CVE-2017-9445)
Impact
An unauthenticated remote attacker may be able to perform an out-of-bounds write to cause a denial of service (DoS) or conduct remote code execution.
