[LEDE-DEV] Severe dnsmasq vulnerabilities affecting LEDE

[Daniel Engberg]

In addition to Jo-Philipp Wich's announcement the buildbots in LEDE's
infrastructure are backlogged meaning that the following targets
(including notable mentions) does not have an updated package for 
dnsmasq
as time of writing:

arc_arc700
arm_arm926ej-s
arm_cortex-a5
arm_cortex-a53_neon-vfpv4
arm_cortex-a8_vfpv3
arm_cortex-a9
arm_cortex-a9_neon      - QCA ARM 11ac capable devices
arm_cortex-a9_vfpv3     - Marvell ARM 11ac capable devices
arm_fa526
arm_mpcore
i386_geode              - PC Engines ALIX devices
i386_i486
mips_24kc               - Includes the majority of supported MIPS 
devices
mips64_octeon           - EdgeRouter Lite (not X)
powerpc_464fp

ETA for the following platforms is 12h.

To verify that a new version of dnsmasq is available on your platform
run "opkg update; opkg list dnsmasq" which will show version 2.78-1 once
the package has been updated.

Best regards,
Daniel Engberg
