- An integer underflow flaw leading to a buffer over-read was found in dnsmasq in the DNS code. An attacker could send crafted DNS packets to dnsmasq which would cause it to crash.i1/4^CVE-2017-13704i1/4%0

- A vulnerability was found in Dnsmasq's implementation of DNSSEC. Wildcard synthesized NSEC records could be improperly interpreted to prove the non-existence of hostnames that actually exist.i1/4^CVE-2017-15107i1/4%0
