Title:
  Segfault in dnsmasq when using certain static domain entries + DoH
  (bugfix possibly exists upstream)

Status in dnsmasq package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in dnsmasq source package in Jammy:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  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).

  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 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? Thanks!

  Excerpt from the dnsmasq logs, with debugging enabled, after I loaded 
fast.com:
  Apr 07 13:47:41 budgie systemd[1]: Started dnsmasq - A lightweight DHCP and 
caching DNS server.
  Apr 07 13:47:42 budgie dnsmasq[109976]: query[type=65]

  Apr 07 13:47:42 budgie dnsmasq[109976]: config error is REFUSED (EDE: network 
error)
  Apr 07 13:47:43 budgie dnsmasq[109976]: query[type=65] 
ichnaea-web.netflix.com from 192.168.10.82
  Apr 07 13:47:43 budgie systemd[1]: dnsmasq.service: Main process exited, 
code=dumped, status=11/SEGV
  Apr 07 13:47:43 budgie systemd[1]: dnsmasq.service: Failed with result 
'core-dump'.

  Core dump is also attached.

  Reproduction steps:
  - 1. Install dnsmasq on Ubuntu 22.04 (or any Ubuntu release using dnsmasq 
2.86)
  - 1.5. Configure one or multiple DNS servers for dnsmasq
  - 2. Copy netflix-nov6.conf into /etc/dnsmasq.d/
  - 3. Restart/reload dnsmasq
  - 3.5 Verify that dnsmasq resolves domains correctly:

  root@budgie:~# dig +short -tA ubuntu.com @127.0.0.1
  185.125.190.21
  185.125.190.20
  185.125.190.29
  root@budgie:~# dig +short -tAAAA ubuntu.com @127.0.0.1
  2620:2d:4000:1::28
  2620:2d:4000:1::26
  2620:2d:4000:1::27

  - 4. Perform a type65 / HTTPS recordtype query for netflix.com towards
  the dnsmasq server once or twice:

  root@budgie:~# dig +short -tTYPE65 netflix.com @127.0.0.1
  root@budgie:~# dig +short -tTYPE65 netflix.com @127.0.0.1
  ;; communications error to 127.0.0.1#53: timed out
  ;; communications error to 127.0.0.1#53: connection refused
  ;; communications error to 127.0.0.1#53: connection refused
  ;; no servers could be reached

  - 5. Check logs to verify segfault:

caching DNS server.
