NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream strimzi-kafka-operator-kafka-thirdparty-libs-cc package and not the strimzi-kafka-operator-kafka-thirdparty-libs-cc package as distributed by Minimos. See How to fix? for Minimos:latest relevant fixed versions and status.

Netty is an asynchronous, event-driven network application framework. Prior to 4.2.13.Final and 4.1.133.Final, Netty's DNS codec does not enforce RFC 1035 domain name constraints during either encoding or decoding. This creates a bidirectional attack surface: malicious DNS responses can exploit the decoder, and user-influenced hostnames can exploit the encoder. This vulnerability is fixed in 4.2.13.Final and 4.1.133.Final.
