+Subject: [PATCH] Fix NSEC bitmap parsing infinite loop. CVE-2026-4890
+
+Report from Royce M <[email protected]>.
+
+Location: dnssec.c:1290-1306, dnssec.c:1450-1463
+
+The bitmap window iteration advances by p[1] instead of p[1]+2 (missing the 
2-byte window header). With bitmap_length=0, both rdlen and p are
+unchanged, causing an infinite loop and dnsmasq stops responding to all 
queries.
+
+The same code accesses p[2] after only checking rdlen >= 2 without verifying 
p[1] >= 1, causing OOB reads at 6 locations.
+
+Both bugs are reachable before RRSIG validation (confirmed by the source 
comment at line 2125), so no valid DNSSEC signatures are needed.
+
+CVE: CVE-2026-4890
+Upstream-Status: Backport
