| Titre | dnsmasq dnsmasq v2.73rc6 Heap-based Buffer Overflow |
|---|
| Description | A heap buffer overflow exists in dnsmasq v2.73rc6 when parsing DHCP option hexadecimal values. The vulnerability is in `parse_hex()` (src/util.c) which can write past the end of the allocated buffer (callers allocate based on a computed byte count). A crafted DHCP option in `dnsmasq.conf` causes `parse_hex()` to overflow the heap buffer during configuration parsing, resulting in a crash and potential memory corruption. Reproduce by replacing `dnsmasq.conf` with the supplied config and starting dnsmasq; an ASan build produces a reliable crash referencing `parse_hex`. |
