Vulnerability Insight:
Several vulnerabilities have been discovered in the ISC DHCP client, relay and server.

CVE-2022-2928

It was discovered that the DHCP server does not correctly perform option reference counting when configured with 'allow leasequery,'. A remote attacker can take advantage of this flaw to cause a denial of service (daemon crash).

CVE-2022-2929

It was discovered that the DHCP server is prone to a memory leak flaw when handling contents of option 81 (fqdn) data received in a DHCP packet. A remote attacker can take advantage of this flaw to cause DHCP servers to consume resources, resulting in denial of service.
