Statement
This issue only affects systems which use a remote recursive resolver and enable EDNS0, either with the “edns0” option in /etc/resolv.conf, or using the RES_USE_EDNS0 or RES_USE_DNSSEC resolver flags. The underlying issue affects recursive resolvers such as BIND and Unbound as well, and has to be fixed separately there.
