Type: advisorySource: Official CVE List1 source record

lwIP through 2.2.1 contains a stack out-of-bounds write vulnerability in mdns_handle_response that allows adjacent attackers to corrupt stack memory by sending mDNS responses with invalid domain names. Attackers on the local link can send multicast PTR answers with oversized RDLENGTH or SRV answers with RDLENGTH below 6 during a service search, overflowing a 256-byte stack buffer and crashing the device.
