Subject: [PATCH] dns: fix buffer overflow for data->addresses in recv_hook
We may get more than one response before exiting out of loop in
grub_net_dns_lookup, but buffer was allocated for the first response only,
so storing answers from subsequent replies wrote past allocated size.
We never really use more than the very first address during lookup so there
is little point in collecting all of them. Just quit early if we already have
some reply.
Code needs serious redesign to actually collect multiple answers
and select the best fit according to requested type (IPv4 or IPv6).
Reported and tested by Michael Chang <mchang@suse.com>
