Remove the CFG_CLAUSEFLAG_EXPERIMENTAL flag from the
"trust-anchor-telemetry" statement as the behavior of the latter has not
been changed since its initial implementation and there are currently no
plans to do so. This silences a relevant log message that was emitted
even when the feature was explicitly disabled.
these options control default timing of retries in the resolver
for experimental purposes; they are not known to useful in production
environments. they will be removed in the future; for now, we
only log a warning if they are used.
The main intention of PROXY protocol is to pass endpoints information
to a back-end server (in our case - BIND). That means that it is a
valid way to spoof endpoints information, as the addresses and ports
extracted from PROXYv2 headers, from the point of view of BIND, are
used instead of the real connection addresses.
Of course, an ability to easily spoof endpoints information can be
considered a security issue when used uncontrollably. To resolve that,
we introduce 'allow-proxy' and 'allow-proxy-on' ACL options. These are
the only ACL options in BIND that work with real PROXY connections
addresses, allowing a DNS server operator to specify from what clients
and on which interfaces he or she is willing to accept PROXY
headers. By default, for security reasons we do not allow to accept
them.
This commit extends "listen-on" statement with "proxy" options that
allows one to enable PROXYv2 support on a dedicated listener. It can
have the following values:
- "plain" to send PROXYv2 headers without encryption, even in the case
of encrypted transports.
- "encrypted" to send PROXYv2 headers encrypted right after the TLS
handshake.
The system tests on OpenBSD consistently exhibit lower stability
compared to our other CI platforms. Some of these challenges are
intrinsic to the system test itself and require attention. However,
there are OpenBSD issues, which seem to be more widespread on this
platform than others. In our daily CI pipelines, OpenBSD system tests
often bear the brunt of all failed CI jobs.
It's possible that our OpenBSD CI image could be optimized, but we
currently lack the domain-specific knowledge needed to make
improvements.
The AES algorithm for DNS cookies was being kept for legacy reasons, and
it can be safely removed in the next major release. Remove both the AES
usage for DNS cookies and the AES implementation itself.
The lock-file configuration (both from configuration file and -X
argument to named) has better alternatives nowadays. Modern process
supervisor should be used to ensure that a single named process is
running on a given configuration.
Alternatively, it's possible to wrap the named with flock(1).
This is first step in removing the lock-file configuration option, it
marks both the `lock-file` configuration directive and -X option to
named as deprecated.
Add the missing documentation for 'dnssec-policy/inline-signing'.
Update the zone-only option 'inline-signing' to indicate that the
use of inline signing should be set in 'dnssec-policy' and that this
is merely a way to override the value for the given zone.
(cherry picked from commit 2b7381950d17fe4d289959e5f76f020cc462200a)
Basically all local data is considered trusted, and proper ACLs and
limits need to be explicitly configured. We are also free to let
protocol non-compliant servers burn in flames.
Read the Docs is capable of building the PDF version of the BIND 9 ARM
using just the contents of the doc/arm/ directory - it does not need the
build system to facilitate that. Since the BIND 9 ARM is also built in
other formats when "make doc" is run, drop the parts of the build system
that enable building the PDF version as they pull in complexity without
bringing much added value in return. Update related files accordingly.
The "Needs Refresh" flag is exposed in two places in the statistics
channel: first - there is a state called "Needs Refresh", when the
process hasn't started yet, but the zone needs a refresh, and second
- there there is a field called "Additional Refresh Queued", when the
process is ongoing, but another refresh is queued for the same zone.
The DNS_ZONEFLG_NEEDREFRESH flag, however, is set only when there is
an ongoing zone transfer and a new notify is received. That is, the
flag is not set for the first case above.
In order to fix the issue, use the DNS_ZONEFLG_NEEDREFRESH flag only
when the zone transfer is running, otherwise, decide whether a zone
needs a refresh using its refresh and expire times.
