Description
This CVE in Dnsmasq is associated with DNSBomb, a type of pulsing denial-of-service (DoS) attack. DNSBomb exploits multiple widely-implemented DNS mechanisms to accumulate DNS queries that are sent at a low rate, amplify queries into large-sized responses, and concentrate all DNS responses into a short, high-volume periodic pulsing burst to simultaneously overwhelm target systems.
