Disclosure Date: October 19, 2017
Add MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques that apply to this CVE.

Description

musl libc before 1.1.17 has a buffer overflow via crafted DNS replies because dns_parse_callback in network/lookup_name.c does not restrict the number of addresses, and thus an attacker can provide an unexpected number by sending A records in a reply to an AAAA query.
