HIGHCVSS v3.1 7.5Vulnerability

CVE-2026-97206

NLnet Labs Unbound, 1.22.0 up to and including version 1.26.1, contains a DNS-over-QUIC (DoQ) lifetime bug reachable by a remote DoQ client under multi-threaded operation. A client-triggered QUIC path migration can enter stream/connection cleanup while a mesh reply still retains a pointer to the DoQ stream. Cleanup frees the DoQ stream and when the pending mesh reply later completes it dereferences a stale pointer leading to a crash.
