EndpointSlice FQDN addresses were copied into endpoint records as if
they were IP addresses. CoreDNS then treated each value as a CNAME
target. A tenant could build a branching chain of headless Services that
made one query perform exponential work and exhaust CoreDNS memory.
Publish endpoints only from IPv4 and IPv6 slices and validate every
address against its declared family. Deduplicate CNAME targets for the
whole query so repeated or converging paths are chased once.
Protect internal self-lookups with an independent depth limit. This
stops direct and indirect k8s_external CNAME loops without consuming the
loop counter already maintained by the file and rewrite plugins.
Add regression coverage for address types, recursive convergence,
repeated k8s_external targets, and direct and indirect self-reference.
