dnsmasq: DNS proxy is wrongly created

Package(s):dnsmasq CVE #(s):CVE-2012-3411
Created:September 12, 2012 Updated:March 11, 2013
Description: David Woodhouse reports:

It seems that your dnsmasq instance is listening on that address, but *not* correctly discarding packets which come from a different interface. Even though the --bind-interface option is set. See the Red Hat bugzilla for more information.
