+Subject: [PATCH] CVE-2015-7547: getaddrinfo() stack-based buffer overflow (Bug
+ 18665).
+
+* A stack-based buffer overflow was found in libresolv when invoked from
+  libnss_dns, allowing specially crafted DNS responses to seize control
+  of execution flow in the DNS client.  The buffer overflow occurs in
+  the functions send_dg (send datagram) and send_vc (send TCP) for the
+  NSS module libnss_dns.so.2 when calling getaddrinfo with AF_UNSPEC
+  family.  The use of AF_UNSPEC triggers the low-level resolver code to
+  send out two parallel queries for A and AAAA.  A mismanagement of the
+  buffers used for those queries could result in the response of a query
+  writing beyond the alloca allocated buffer created by
+  _nss_dns_gethostbyname4_r.  Buffer management is simplified to remove
+  the overflow.  Thanks to the Google Security Team and Red Hat for
+  reporting the security impact of this issue, and Robert Holiday of
+  Ciena for reporting the related bug 18665. (CVE-2015-7547)

++     compromise and attention to symmetry (A or AAAA queries can be
++     returned in any order).  What follows is a breakdown of how this
++     code is expected to work and why. We discuss only SUCCESS,
++     TRYAGAIN, NOTFOUND and UNAVAIL, since they are the only returns
++     that apply (though RETURN and MERGE exist).  We make a distinction
++     between TRYAGAIN (recoverable) and TRYAGAIN' (not-recoverable).
++     A recoverable TRYAGAIN is almost always due to buffer size issues
++     and returns ERANGE in errno and the caller is expected to retry
++     with a larger buffer.
++
++     Lastly, you may be tempted to make significant changes to the
++     conditions in this code to bring about symmetry between responses.
++     Please don't change anything without due consideration for
++     expected application behaviour.  Some of the synthesized responses
++     aren't very well thought out and sometimes appear to imply that
++     IPv4 responses are always answer 1, and IPv6 responses are always
++     answer 2, but that's not true (see the implementation of send_dg
++     and send_vc to see response can arrive in any order, particularly
++     for UDP). However, we expect it holds roughly enough of the time
++     that this code works, but certainly needs to be fixed to make this
++     a more robust implementation.

++     [1] If the first response is a success we return success.
++        This ignores the state of the second answer and in fact
++        incorrectly sets errno and h_errno to that of the second
++        answer.  However because the response is a success we ignore
++        *errnop and *h_errnop (though that means you touched errno on
++        success).  We are being conservative here and returning the
++        likely IPv4 response in the first answer as a success.
++
++     [2] If the first response is a recoverable TRYAGAIN we return
++        that instead of looking at the second response.  The
++        expectation here is that we have failed to get an IPv4 response
++        and should retry both queries.
++
++     [3] If the first response was not a SUCCESS and the second
++        response is not NOTFOUND (had a SUCCESS, need to TRYAGAIN,
++        or failed entirely e.g. TRYAGAIN' and UNAVAIL) then use the
++        result from the second response, otherwise the first responses
++        status is used.  Again we have some odd side-effects when the
++        second response is NOTFOUND because we overwrite *errnop and
++        *h_errnop that means that a first answer of NOTFOUND might see
++        its *errnop and *h_errnop values altered.  Whether it matters
++        in practice that a first response NOTFOUND has the wrong
++        *errnop and *h_errnop is undecided.
++
++     [4] If the first response is UNAVAIL we return that instead of
++        looking at the second response.  The expectation here is that
++        it will have failed similarly e.g. configuration failure.
++
++     [5] Testing this code is complicated by the fact that truncated
++        second response buffers might be returned as SUCCESS if the
++        first answer is a SUCCESS.  To fix this we add symmetry to
++        TRYAGAIN with the second response.  If the second response
++        is a recoverable error we now return TRYAGIN even if the first
++        response was SUCCESS.  */

++/* The send_vc function is responsible for sending a DNS query over TCP
++   to the nameserver numbered NS from the res_state STATP i.e.
++   EXT(statp).nssocks[ns].  The function supports sending both IPv4 and
++   IPv6 queries at the same serially on the same socket.
++
++   Please note that for TCP there is no way to disable sending both
++   queries, unlike UDP, which honours RES_SNGLKUP and RES_SNGLKUPREOP
++   and sends the queries serially and waits for the result after each
++   sent query.  This implemetnation should be corrected to honour these
++   options.
++
++   Please also note that for TCP we send both queries over the same
++   socket one after another.  This technically violates best practice
++   since the server is allowed to read the first query, respond, and
++   then close the socket (to service another client).  If the server
++   does this, then the remaining second query in the socket data buffer
++   will cause the server to send the client an RST which will arrive
++   asynchronously and the client's OS will likely tear down the socket
++   receive buffer resulting in a potentially short read and lost
++   response data.  This will force the client to retry the query again,
++   and this process may repeat until all servers and connection resets
++   are exhausted and then the query will fail.  It's not known if this
++   happens with any frequency in real DNS server implementations.  This
++   implementation should be corrected to use two sockets by default for
++   parallel queries.
++
++   The query stored in BUF of BUFLEN length is sent first followed by
++   the query stored in BUF2 of BUFLEN2 length.  Queries are sent
++   serially on the same socket.
++
++   Answers to the query are stored firstly in *ANSP up to a max of
++   *ANSSIZP bytes.  If more than *ANSSIZP bytes are needed and ANSCP
++   is non-NULL (to indicate that modifying the answer buffer is allowed)
++   then malloc is used to allocate a new response buffer and ANSCP and
++   ANSP will both point to the new buffer.  If more than *ANSSIZP bytes
++   are needed but ANSCP is NULL, then as much of the response as
++   possible is read into the buffer, but the results will be truncated.
++   When truncation happens because of a small answer buffer the DNS
++   packets header field TC will bet set to 1, indicating a truncated
++   message and the rest of the socket data will be read and discarded.
++
++   Answers to the query are stored secondly in *ANSP2 up to a max of
++   *ANSSIZP2 bytes, with the actual response length stored in
++   *RESPLEN2.  If more than *ANSSIZP bytes are needed and ANSP2
++   is non-NULL (required for a second query) then malloc is used to
++   allocate a new response buffer, *ANSSIZP2 is set to the new buffer
++   size and *ANSP2_MALLOCED is set to 1.
++
++   The ANSP2_MALLOCED argument will eventually be removed as the
++   change in buffer pointer can be used to detect the buffer has
++   changed and that the caller should use free on the new buffer.
++
++   Note that the answers may arrive in any order from the server and
++   therefore the first and second answer buffers may not correspond to
++   the first and second queries.
++
++   It is not supported to call this function with a non-NULL ANSP2
++   but a NULL ANSCP.  Put another way, you can call send_vc with a
++   single unmodifiable buffer or two modifiable buffers, but no other
++   combination is supported.
++
++   It is the caller's responsibility to free the malloc allocated
++   buffers by detecting that the pointers have changed from their
++   original values i.e. *ANSCP or *ANSP2 has changed.
++
++   If errors are encountered then *TERRNO is set to an appropriate
++   errno value and a zero result is returned for a recoverable error,
++   and a less-than zero result is returned for a non-recoverable error.
++
++   If no errors are encountered then *TERRNO is left unmodified and
++   a the length of the first response in bytes is returned.  */

++/* The send_dg function is responsible for sending a DNS query over UDP
++   to the nameserver numbered NS from the res_state STATP i.e.
++   EXT(statp).nssocks[ns].  The function supports IPv4 and IPv6 queries
++   along with the ability to send the query in parallel for both stacks
++   (default) or serially (RES_SINGLKUP).  It also supports serial lookup
++   with a close and reopen of the socket used to talk to the server
++   (RES_SNGLKUPREOP) to work around broken name servers.
++
++   The query stored in BUF of BUFLEN length is sent first followed by
++   the query stored in BUF2 of BUFLEN2 length.  Queries are sent
++   in parallel (default) or serially (RES_SINGLKUP or RES_SNGLKUPREOP).
++
++   Answers to the query are stored firstly in *ANSP up to a max of
++   *ANSSIZP bytes.  If more than *ANSSIZP bytes are needed and ANSCP
++   is non-NULL (to indicate that modifying the answer buffer is allowed)
++   then malloc is used to allocate a new response buffer and ANSCP and
++   ANSP will both point to the new buffer.  If more than *ANSSIZP bytes
++   are needed but ANSCP is NULL, then as much of the response as
++   possible is read into the buffer, but the results will be truncated.
++   When truncation happens because of a small answer buffer the DNS
++   packets header field TC will bet set to 1, indicating a truncated
++   message, while the rest of the UDP packet is discarded.
++
++   Answers to the query are stored secondly in *ANSP2 up to a max of
++   *ANSSIZP2 bytes, with the actual response length stored in
++   *RESPLEN2.  If more than *ANSSIZP bytes are needed and ANSP2
++   is non-NULL (required for a second query) then malloc is used to
++   allocate a new response buffer, *ANSSIZP2 is set to the new buffer
++   size and *ANSP2_MALLOCED is set to 1.
++
++   The ANSP2_MALLOCED argument will eventually be removed as the
++   change in buffer pointer can be used to detect the buffer has
++   changed and that the caller should use free on the new buffer.
++
++   Note that the answers may arrive in any order from the server and
++   therefore the first and second answer buffers may not correspond to
++   the first and second queries.
++
++   It is not supported to call this function with a non-NULL ANSP2
++   but a NULL ANSCP.  Put another way, you can call send_vc with a
++   single unmodifiable buffer or two modifiable buffers, but no other
++   combination is supported.
++
++   It is the caller's responsibility to free the malloc allocated
++   buffers by detecting that the pointers have changed from their
++   original values i.e. *ANSCP or *ANSP2 has changed.
++
++   If an answer is truncated because of UDP datagram DNS limits then
++   *V_CIRCUIT is set to 1 and the return value non-zero to indicate to
++   the caller to retry with TCP.  The value *GOTSOMEWHERE is set to 1
++   if any progress was made reading a response from the nameserver and
++   is used by the caller to distinguish between ECONNREFUSED and
++   ETIMEDOUT (the latter if *GOTSOMEWHERE is 1).
++
++   If errors are encountered then *TERRNO is set to an appropriate
++   errno value and a zero result is returned for a recoverable error,
++   and a less-than zero result is returned for a non-recoverable error.
++
++   If no errors are encountered then *TERRNO is left unmodified and
++   a the length of the first response in bytes is returned.  */
