According to its self-reported version number, the MaraDNS server running on the remote host may be running a version of Deadwood, a recursive resolver bundled with MaraDNS, which is affected by an out-of-bounds read error. This issue exists due to the lack of bounds checking in the ‘DwCompress.c’ and ‘DwRecurse.c’ source files. This issue could allow a remote attacker to crash the recursive DNS resolver, resulting in a denial of service.
Note that this only affects the Deadwood component.
