CVE-2022-2928
An integer overflow vulnerability was found in the DHCP server. When the "option_code_hash_lookup()" function is called from "add_option()", it increases the option's "refcount" field. However, there is not a corresponding call to "option_dereference()" to decrement the "refcount" field. The "add_option()" function is only used in server responses to lease query packets. Each lease query response calls this function for several options. Hence, a DHCP server configured with "allow lease query" a remote machine with access to the server, can send lease queries for the same lease multiple times, leading to the "add_option()" function being called repeatedly. This issue could cause the reference counters to overflow and the server to abort or crash.
