Security Advisories

CVE-2007-6341

Allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (program "croak") via a crafted DNS response.

Fixed version: >=0.63

Reported: 2008-02-08

CVE-2007-3409

Net::DNS before 0.60, a Perl module, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (stack consumption) via a malformed compressed DNS packet with self-referencing pointers, which triggers an infinite loop.

Fixed version: >=0.60

Reported: 2007-06-26

CVE-2007-3377

Header.pm in Net::DNS before 0.60, a Perl module, (1) generates predictable sequence IDs with a fixed increment and (2) can use the same starting ID for all child processes of a forking server, which allows remote attackers to spoof DNS responses, as originally reported for qpsmtp and spamassassin.

Fixed version: >=0.60

Reported: 2007-06-25

Kwalitee Issues

This is not the latest release. The following issues may have already been fixed in the newer releases.

has_meta_yml

Add a META.yml to the distribution. Your buildtool should be able to autogenerate it.

use_strict

Add 'use strict' (or its equivalents) to all modules, or convince us that your favorite module is well-known enough and people can easily see the modules are strictly written.

Error: Net::DNS

5 Extra Issues

has_meta_json

Add a META.json to the distribution. Your buildtool should be able to autogenerate it.

meta_yml_has_license

Define the license if you are using in Build.PL. If you are using MakeMaker (Makefile.PL) you should upgrade to ExtUtils::MakeMaker version 6.31.

use_warnings

Add 'use warnings' (or its equivalents) to all modules, or convince us that your favorite module is well-known enough and people can easily see the modules warn when something bad happens.
