Description

Experiencing a panic with malformed DNS traffic. Here's the relevant trace data. Looking at dns.rs, nothing really jumps out at me that seems like it'd cause a panic here.

I'll keep digging and see if I can come up with anything further.

Do you have a pcap that demonstrates this?

Thanks.

Haven't been able to get one thus far because I only have a four-hour window and this happened overnight, but I'm going to keep my eye on it and try to pull pcaps if I see it fall over again.

Did you get a panic message? Something like:

thread '<unnamed>' panicked at 'attempt to add with overflow', src/dns/dns.rs:358:9

An overflow is the only case I can think of that would cause a panic at this line.

Nick, after some further thought, you must be seeing a lot of malformed DNS traffic as its hitting 65k per DNS state. If you are able to, even if privately, I'm wondering if you could share a sample of your DNS traffic for testing. Maybe its not corrupt and just been decoded as corrupt. Or it could actually be corrupt, or something thats not DNS, but looks close enough to trigger the parser.
