The Chainguard security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Chainguard:latest.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kubernetes-dns-node-cache package and not the kubernetes-dns-node-cache package as distributed by Chainguard.
CoreDNS is a DNS server that chains plugins. Prior to version 1.14.0, multiple CoreDNS server implementations (gRPC, HTTPS, and HTTP/3) lack critical resource-limiting controls. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exhaust memory and degrade or crash the server by opening many concurrent connections, streams, or sending oversized request bodies. The issue is similar in nature to CVE-2025-47950 (QUIC DoS) but affects additional server types that do not enforce connection limits, stream limits, or message size constraints. Version 1.14.0 contains a patch.
