Fabrice, All,

On 2021-08-28 17:06 +0200, Fabrice Fontaine spake thusly:
> - NodeJS passes NULL for addr and 0 for addrlen to
>   ares_parse_ptr_reply() on systems where malloc(0) returns NULL. This
>   would cause a crash.
> - If ares_getaddrinfo() was terminated by an ares_destroy(), it would
>   cause a crash
> - Crash in sortaddrinfo() if the list size equals 0 due to an unexpected
>   DNS response
> - Expand number of escaped characters in DNS replies as per RFC1035 5.1
>   to prevent spoofing follow-up
> - Perform validation on hostnames to prevent possible XSS due to
>   applications not performing valiation themselves
