Release Notes

pi-hole/docker-pi-hole (docker.io/pihole/pihole)

v2026.05.0

Compare Source

This tag includes the FTL v6.6.2 release which imports six upstream dnsmasq security fixes, covering all publicly disclosed CVEs against the dnsmasq 2.92/2.93 line. Patches are taken verbatim from https://thekelleys.org.uk/dnsmasq/CVE/

Details here: https://github.com/pi-hole/FTL/releases/tag/v6.6.2

Upgrade impact

All six fixes are minimal, self-contained changes to the embedded dnsmasq sources. No FTL-side configuration or API changes; users should see no observable behavior change beyond the closed vulnerabilities.

Fix dnsmasq CVE publications by @​DL6ER in pi-hole/FTL#2888

This furthermore indirectly fixes #​2871 due to pi-hole/docker-base-images#158
