NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream open-iscsi package and not the open-iscsi package as distributed by Debian.

The code that processes DNS responses in uIP through 1.0, as used in Contiki and Contiki-NG, does not check whether the number of responses specified in the DNS packet header corresponds to the response data available in the DNS packet, leading to an out-of-bounds read and Denial-of-Service in resolv.c.
