** Description changed: Hi folks, I've been using dnsmasq for my home DNS needs, which includes returning null entries for certain domain queries. The specific case in which I found this segfault was returning null AAAA records for Netflix (to ensure Netflix does not try to use my IPv6 tunnel to egress traffic through). I've been using very simple configuration snippet to achieve this, this is attached as netflix-nov6.conf (the full file contains more entries). - I also have a static domain entry to serve NXDOMAIN for `use- - application-dns.net`, signalling application not to use DoH (attached as - dns-no-doh.conf). This is done to prevent applications from using DoH to - bypass my local DNS server (and lose the ability to block ads). - Ever since I've upgraded from Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04, dnsmasq kept segfaulting at random occasions. I also attempted do an apt update&&upgrade, but there are no newer versions of this package available. Further research into this issue showed that a surefire way to trigger this segfault was to go to a website blocked via this method (for testing purposes, a dig query works quite well). The segfault can be - reproduced reliably, and always occurs after one or a few TYPE65 queries + reproduced reliably, and always occurs after one or a few queries towards the "blocked" domain entries. I found a commit in the upstream dnsmasq git repo which seems to fix this issue, the fix made it into 2.87: https://thekelleys.org.uk/gitweb/?p=dnsmasq.git;a=commit;h=de372d6914ae20a1f9997815f258efbf3b14c39b Would it be possible to backport this into the version used in the current LTS Ubuntu release?
