CVE-2026-24028 · Out-of-bounds read when parsing DNS packets via Lua

This page contains facts from public vulnerability sources. Check the original advisory before updating.

An attacker might be able to trigger an out-of-bounds read by sending a crafted DNS response packet, when custom Lua code uses newDNSPacketOverlay to parse DNS packets. The out-of-bounds read might trigger a crash, leading to a denial of service, or access unrelated memory, leading to potential information disclosure.
