There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability. (
( CVE-2024-24758) c-ares is a c library for asynchronous dns requests.
`ares__read_line()` is used to parse local configuration files such as `/etc/resolv.conf`, `/etc/nsswitch.conf`, the `hostaliases` file, and if using a c-ares version prior to 1.27.0, the `/etc/hosts` file.
If any of these configuration files has an embedded `null` character as the first character in a new line, it can lead to attempting to read memory prior to the start of the given buffer which may result in a crash.
This issue is fixed in c-ares 1.27.0.
No known workarounds exist. (
