CVE-2026-24029
Description
A flaw was found in dnsdist, a high-performance DNS (Domain Name System) load balancer. When the early_acl_drop option is disabled on a DNS over HTTPS (DoH) frontend, the Access Control List (ACL) check is bypassed. This allows any client to send DoH queries, potentially leading to unauthorized access to DNS services and information disclosure, regardless of the configured security policies.
