Description

Simon Kelley reports: [In configurations where the forwarding server address contains an @ character for specifying a sending interface or source address, the] random source port behavior was disabled, making cache poisoning attacks possible. This only affects configurations of the form server=1.1.1.1@em0 or [email protected], i. e. those that specify an interface to send through, or an IP address to send from, or use together with NetworkManager.
