x/net/dns/dnsmessage: Panic via Malformed SVCB/HTTPS Resource Record

This CVE does not affect KrakenD

KrakenD’s outbound DNS resolution, used to resolve backend hostnames, relies on the operating system’s standard resolver requesting A and AAAA records. It never issues SVCB or HTTPS resource record queries, which are used for service binding to newer QUIC/HTTP-3 endpoints. With no SVCB/HTTPS queries made, the vulnerable parsing path in dnsmessage is never exercised by KrakenD.

Addressed through routine dependency maintenance in CE 2.13.9 and EE 2.13.7.

Description

Go’s DNS message parser in golang.org/x/net/dns/dnsmessage could panic when decoding an invalid SVCB or HTTPS resource record whose parameter value size overflowed the message buffer. A malicious or compromised DNS server returning such a crafted record could crash the process performing the lookup. The fix adds bounds checking before reading the parameter value. This does not affect KrakenD, which never issues SVCB/HTTPS DNS queries.
