Fabio Olive Leite reports :

A stack-based buffer overflow was found in libresolv when invoked from nss_dns, allowing specially crafted DNS responses to seize control of EIP in the DNS client. The buffer overflow occurs in the functions send_dg (send datagram) and send_vc (send TCP) for the NSS module libnss_dns.so.2 when calling getaddrinfo with AF_UNSPEC family, or in some cases AF_INET6 family. The use of AF_UNSPEC (or AF_INET6 in some cases) triggers the low-level resolver code to send out two parallel queries for A and AAAA. A mismanagement of the buffers used for those queries could result in the response of a query writing beyond the alloca allocated buffer created by __res_nquery.
