Yes, as forwarder.  I don't think dnsmasq implements a real recursive
resolver.

I tested the basic behaviour used by the attack (ICMP errors when hitting
a closed port, nothing when hitting a open port and spoofing the peer
address) and it worked.  I did not reproduce the full attack but since we
are not customizing this part of the kernel it should work.

I am not aware of a public PoC.  Successful cache poisoning is not
straightforward to pull off because you still have to guess the
transaction ID and you have limited time to do so.  But a motivated
attacker can definitely do it, it does not require significant resources.
