Description
This strike exploits a denial of service vulnerability in PowerDNS. In a normal DNS message, the minimum number of bytes in the Additional Section is 16. If this section contains less than 11 bytes, an error in validation will lead to a buffer overread, which then causes the pdns_recursor service to terminate abnormally, leading to a denial of service condition
