I've yesterday pinged the security Team as FYI on this. In the meanwhile by tracking the upstream list this seems to be the follow up fix: https://thekelleys.org.uk/gitweb/?p=dnsmasq.git;a=commit;h=141a26f979b4bc959d8e866a295e24f8cf456920 With the following being related https://thekelleys.org.uk/gitweb/?p=dnsmasq.git;a=commit;h=305cb79c5754d5554729b18a2c06fe7ce699687a
It will fix the immediate issue, but compared to the past the SP will stay the same now, see this discussion. https://lists.thekelleys.org.uk/pipermail/dnsmasq-discuss/2021q1/014735.html @Marc/Security - are you going to follow on on those CVE pushes with that fix or do we need a different plan of action? ** Changed in: dnsmasq (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Ubuntu Security Team (ubuntu-security) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to dnsmasq in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1916462 Title: dnsmasq failed to send packet: Network is unreachable Status in dnsmasq package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: the log shows this: Feb 22 09:37:53 myserver dnsmasq[2259]: failed to send packet: Network is unreachable repeatedly and frequently. This is a known bug in dnsmasq and has been fixed upstream (according to the thread quoted below). Apparently it is IPv6 related and triggered by Windows and Mac clients. An extensive thread on the subject is here on the OpenWRT forum: https://forum.openwrt.org/t/security-advisory-2021-01-19-1-dnsmasq- multiple-vulnerabilities/85903/123 I think this has been reported in the fallout of the quoted security vulnerabilities.
