+	  <p>A stack-based buffer overflow was found in libresolv when invoked
+	    from nss_dns, allowing specially crafted DNS responses to seize
+	    control of EIP in the DNS client. The buffer overflow occurs in the
+	    functions send_dg (send datagram) and send_vc (send TCP) for the
+	    NSS module libnss_dns.so.2 when calling getaddrinfo with AF_UNSPEC
+	    family, or in some cases AF_INET6 family. The use of AF_UNSPEC (or
+	    AF_INET6 in some cases) triggers the low-level resolver code to
+	    send out two parallel queries for A and AAAA. A mismanagement of
+	    the buffers used for those queries could result in the response of
+	    a query writing beyond the alloca allocated buffer created by
+	    __res_nquery.</p>
