Hello plaisthos,
I'd like you to do a code review.
Please visit
http://gerrit.openvpn.net/c/openvpn/+/1715?usp=email
to review the following change.
Change subject: options: fix use-after-free of DNS options on client connect
......................................................................
options: fix use-after-free of DNS options on client connect
struct dns_options embeds its own gc_arena. When inherit_context_child()
/inherit_context_top() copy struct options by value, the child shares the
parent's DNS arena. options_detach() detached o->gc but not
o->dns_options.gc, so pre_connect_restore()'s gc_free() (and context
teardown) freed allocations the parent still referenced.
With one or more non-pushed --dhcp-option directives that yield a DNS
entry, a connecting client triggers this and the server crashes
(use-after-free in setenv_dns_options(), reported as a double free).
Detach o->dns_options.gc as well, mirroring the existing o->gc handling.
