Bugfix release: https://thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/CHANGELOG
version 2.89
Fix bug introduced in 2.88 (commit fe91134b) which can result
in corruption of the DNS cache internal data structures and
logging of "cache internal error". This has only been seen
in one place in the wild, and it took considerable effort
to even generate a test case to reproduce it, but there's
no way to be sure it won't strike, and the effect is to break
the cache badly. Installations with DNSSEC enabled are more
likely to see the problem, but not running DNSSEC does not
guarantee that it won't happen. Thanks to Timo van Roermund
for reporting the bug and for his great efforts in chasing
it down.
