Public bug reported:

There have been DNS issues while running CI jobs for the openstack
charms, when I captured the dns traffic in one of the nova-compute
units[0][1], it can be seen how certain queries are malformed:

 ~ $ tshark -r dns-port-53.pcap  | grep -i malformed | tail -n 2
15403 3602.706021 10.245.160.32 → 10.245.160.114 DNS 126 Unknown operation (12) 
0x0240 Unknown (7680)[Malformed Packet]
15404 3602.706023 10.245.160.32 → 10.245.160.114 DNS 126 Unknown operation (12) 
0x0240 Unknown (7680)[Malformed Packet]
 ~ $ tshark -r dns-port-53.pcap  | grep -i malformed | wc -l
408
 ~ $ tshark -r dns-port-53.pcap  | wc -l
15728

Another symptom found is within the VM's systemd-resolved, it logs
queries timing out https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/pJnd9sprpF/ [2]
