+
+Fix buffer overflow vulnerability in extract_addresses() CVE-2026-5172
+    
+Thanks to Hugo Martinez Ray for spotting this.
+    
+The value of rdlen for an RR can be a lie, allowing the
+call to extract_name() at rfc1025.c:952 to advance the value of p1
+past the calculated end of the record. The makes the calculation
+of bytes remaining in the RR underflow to a huge number and results
+in a massive heap OOB read and certain crash.
+
+CVE: CVE-2026-5172
