    Hi,

    The following vulnerability was published for ruby3.3.

    CVE-2025-24294[0]:
    | The attack vector is a potential Denial of Service (DoS). The
    | vulnerability is caused by an insufficient check on the length of a
    | decompressed domain name within a DNS packet. An attacker can
    | craft a malicious DNS packet containing a highly compressed domain
    | name. When the resolv library parses such a packet, the name
    | decompression process consumes a large amount of CPU resources, as
    | the library does not limit the resulting length of the name. This
    | resource consumption can cause the application thread to become
    | unresponsive, resulting in a Denial of Service condition.
