Is IPFire affected by uClibc DNS bug?

Does IPFire have this vulnerability?

I’m not a programmer so I don’t know IPFire that deeply.

I am writing here so as not to cause unnecessary anxiety.

Best regards

Hi,

thank you for asking. I moved this topic back to the publicly accessible section for transparency reasons.

IPFire is not affected by this, as we removed uClibc in 2010 (see this commit), and the components currently used for DNS resolving are not known to have this bug as well.

Thanks, and best regards,
Peter Müller
