An information disclosure vulnerability in dnsmasq allows remote
attackers to bypass source checks via a crafted DNS packet with
RFC 7871 client subnet information.

+Fix broken client subnet validation. CVE-2026-4893
+    
+Bug report from Royce M <royce@xchglabs.com>
+    
+Location: forward.c:713, edns0.c:421
+    
+With --add-subnet enabled, process_reply() passes the OPT record
+length (~23 bytes) instead of the packet length to check_source().
+All internal bounds checks fail, and the function always returns 1.
+ECS source validation per RFC 7871 Section 9.2 is completely bypassed.
+
+CVE: CVE-2026-4893
