CVE-2026-123603

Hickory DNS Missing IPv4-Mapped IPv6 Canonicalization Access Control Bypass

hickory-proto and hickory-resolver 0.26.0 before 0.26.2, hickory-server 0.25.0-alpha.1 before 0.26.2, and hickory-recursor 0.25.0-alpha.3 through 0.26.0-alpha.1 fail to canonicalize IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses when checking deny_answers, deny_server, or AccessControlSet rules. Attackers can use IPv4-mapped addresses to evade answer filtering, trigger queries to denied nameservers, or reach hickory-server library deployments on dual-stack IPv6 sockets from denied clients.

CVE-2026-123589

Hickory DNS before 0.26.2 Denial of Service via Missing DNS-over-QUIC Request Read Timeout

The DNS-over-QUIC (DoQ) server in hickory-server (hickory-dns) before 0.26.2 does not apply any timeout when reading a request message from a QUIC stream, bypassing all configured timeouts. A remote unauthenticated client can open a connection and a request stream and hold it open indefinitely, consuming server resources and causing a denial of service.

CVE-2026-123582

Hickory DNS 0.25.0 before 0.26.2 DNSSEC Validation Bypass via SOA Record

The validating recursive resolver and validating forwarder in Hickory DNS (hickory-server) 0.25.0 before 0.26.2 do not check whether the SOA record passed DNSSEC validation when assembling NXDOMAIN or NODATA responses. An attacker able to supply forged DNS responses can have a forged SOA record returned to clients with the AD bit set, misleading clients that rely on the server's DNSSEC validation.

Hickory DNS 0.24.0 before 0.26.2 DoH Unbounded Request Body Denial of Service

Hickory DNS from 0.24.0 before 0.26.2 contains a resource exhaustion vulnerability that allows remote attackers to consume server memory via unbounded DoH request bodies. Attackers can send large request bodies over HTTP/2 or HTTP/3 to a DNS over HTTP server, causing memory exhaustion and denial of service.
