NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libavahi-gobject-devel package and not the libavahi-gobject-devel package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.5 relevant fixed versions and status.

A flaw was found in the Avahi-daemon, where it initializes DNS transaction IDs randomly only once at startup, incrementing them sequentially after that. This predictable behavior facilitates DNS spoofing attacks, allowing attackers to guess transaction IDs.
