As we are in overmem state we want to free more memory than we are
adding so we need to add in an allowance for the rbtnodes that may
have been added and the names stored with them. There is the node
for the owner name and a possible ENT node if there was a node split.
the 'predecessor' argument to dns_qp_lookup() turns out not to
be sufficient for our needs: the predecessor node in a QP database
could have become "empty" (for the current version) because of an
update or because cache data expired, and in that case the caller
would have to iterate more than one step back to find the predecessor
node that it needs.
it may also be necessary for a caller to iterate forward, in
order to determine whether a node has any children.
for both of these reasons, we now replace the 'predecessor'
argument with an 'iter' argument. if set, this points to memory
with enough space for a dns_qpiter object.
when an exact match is found by the lookup, the iterator will be
pointing to the matching node. if not, it will be pointing to the
lexical predecessor of the nae that was searched for.
a dns_qpiter_current() method has been added for examining
the current value of the iterator without moving it in either
direction.
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.
BIND 9 will now treat the response as insecure when processing NSEC3
records with iterations larger than 50.
Earlier, we limited the number of iterations to 150 (in #2445).
RFC 9276 says: Because there has been a large growth of open (public)
DNSSEC validating resolvers that are subject to compute resource
constraints when handling requests from anonymous clients, this
document recommends that validating resolvers reduce their iteration
count limits over time. Specifically, validating resolver operators and
validating resolver software implementers are encouraged to continue
evaluating NSEC3 iteration count deployment trends and lower their
acceptable iteration limits over time.
After evaluation, we decided that the next major BIND release should
lower the maximum allowed NSEC3 iterations to 50, which should be
fine for 99,87% of the domain names.
The maximum DNS message size is 65535 octets. Check that the buffer
being passed to dns_message_renderbegin does not exceed this as the
compression code assumes that all offsets are no bigger than this.
EXPERIMENT: when DNS_DB_GLUEOK is set, dns_view_find() will now return
glue if it is found it a local zone database, without checking to see
if a better answer has been cached previously.
The current dispatch code could reuse the TCP connection when
dns_dispatch_gettcp() would be used first. This is problematic as the
dns_resolver doesn't use TCP connection sharing, but dns_request could
get the TCP stream that was created outside of the dns_request.
Add new DNS_DISPATCHOPT_UNSHARED option to dns_dispatch_createtcp() that
would prevent the TCP stream to be reused. Use that option in the
dns_resolver call to dns_dispatch_createtcp() to prevent dns_request
from reusing the TCP connections created by dns_resolver.
Additionally, the dns_xfrin unit added TCP connection sharing for
incoming transfers. While interleaving *xfr streams on a TCP connection
should work this should be a deliberate change and be property of the
server that can be controlled. Additionally some level of parallel TCP
streams is desirable. Revert to the old behaviour by removing the
dns_dispatch_gettcp() calls from dns_xfrin and use the new option to
prevent from sharing the transfer streams with dns_request.
The dns__catz_update_cb() does not expect that 'catzs->zones'
can become NULL during shutdown.
Add similar checks in the dns__catz_update_cb() and dns_catz_zone_get()
functions to protect from such a case. Also add an INSIST in the
dns_catz_zone_add() function to explicitly state that such a case
is not expected there, because that function is called only during a
reconfiguration.
The dns_aclenv_t contains two dns_acl_t - localhost and localnets that
can be swapped with a different ACLs as we configure BIND 9. Instead of
protecting those two pointers with heavyweight read-write lock, use RCU
mechanism to dereference and swap the pointers.
In units that support detailed reference tracing via ISC_REFCOUNT
macros, we were doing:
/* Define to 1 for detailed reference tracing */
#undef <unit>_TRACE
This would prevent using -D<unit>_TRACE=1 in the CFLAGS.
Convert the above mentioned snippet with just a comment how to enable
the detailed reference tracing:
/* Add -D<unit>_TRACE=1 to CFLAGS for detailed reference tracing */
Keeping the information about lame server in the ADB was done in !322 to
fix following security issue:
[CVE-2021-25219] Disable "lame-ttl" cache
The handling of the lame servers needs to be redesigned and it is not
going to be enabled any time soon, and the current code is just dead
code that takes up space, code and stands in the way of making ADB work
faster.
Remove all the internals needed for handling the lame servers in the ADB
for now. It might get reintroduced later if and when we redesign ADB.
now that we have the QP chain mechanism, we can convert the
RPZ summary database to use a QP trie instead of an RBT.
also revised comments throughout the file accordingly, and
incidentally cleaned up calls to new_node(), which can no
longer fail.
dns_qp_findname_ancestor() now takes an optional 'predecessor'
parameter, which if non-NULL is updated to contain the DNSSEC
predecessor of the name searched for. this is done by constructing
an iterator stack while carrying out the search, so it can be used
to step backward if needed.
since dns_qp_findname_ancestor() can now return a chain object, it is no
longer necessary to provide a _NOEXACT search option. if we want to look
up the closest ancestor of a name, we can just do a normal search, and
if successful, retrieve the second-to-last node from the QP chain.
this makes ancestor lookups slightly more complicated for the caller,
but allows us to simplify the code in dns_qp_findname_ancestor(), making
it easier to ensure correctness. this was a fairly rare use case:
outside of unit tests, DNS_QPFIND_NOEXACT was only used in the zone
table, which has now been updated to use the QP chain. the equivalent
RBT feature is only used by the resolver for cache lookups of 'atparent'
types (i.e, DS records).
- make iterators reversible: refactor dns_qpiter_next() and add a new
dns_qpiter_prev() function to support iterating both forwards and
backwards through a QP trie.
- added a 'name' parameter to dns_qpiter_next() (as well as _prev())
to make it easier to retrieve the nodename while iterating, without
having to construct it from pointer value data.
dns_qp_findname_ancestor() now takes an optional 'chain' parameter;
if set, the dns_qpchain object it points to will be updated with an
array of pointers to the populated nodes between the tree root and the
requested name. the number of nodes in the chain can then be accessed
using dns_qpchain_length() and the individual nodes using
dns_qpchain_node().
add a 'foundname' parameter to dns_qp_findname_ancestor(),
and use it to set the found name in dns_nametree.
this required adding a dns_qpkey_toname() function; that was
done by moving qp_test_keytoname() from the test library to qp.c.
added some more test cases and fixed bugs with the handling of
relative and empty names.
When the given zone is not associated with a zone manager, the function
currently returns ISC_R_NOTFOUND, which is documented as the return
value for the case in which no incoming zone transfer is found. Make
the function return ISC_R_FAILURE in such a case instead.
Also update the description of the function as the value it returns is
not meant to indicate whether an ongoing incoming transfer for the given
zone exists. The boolean variables that the function sets via the
pointers provided as its parameters, combined with either keeping
'*xfrp' set to NULL or updating it to a valid pointer, can be used by
the caller to infer all the necessary information.
The 'end_serial' and some other members of the 'dns_xfrin_t'
structure can be accessed by the statistics channel, causing
a data race with the zone transfer process.
Use the existing 'statslock' mutex for protecting those members.
Instead of creating new memory pools for each new dns_message, change
dns_message_create() method to optionally accept externally created
dns_fixedname_t and dns_rdataset_t memory pools. This allows us to
preallocate the memory pools in ns_client and dns_resolver units for the
lifetime of dns_resolver_t and ns_clientmgr_t.
Currently in the statsistics channel's incoming zone transfers list
the local and remote addresses are shown only when the zone transfer
is already running. Since we have now introduced the "Refresh SOA"
state, which shows the state of the SOA query before the zone transfer
is started, this commit implements a feature to show the local and
remote addresses for the SOA query, when the state is "Refresh SOA".
Improve the "Duration (s)" field, so that it can show the duration of
all the major states of an incoming zone transfer process, while they
are taking place. In particular, it will now show the duration of the
"Pending", "Refresh SOA" and "Deferred" states too, before the actual
zone transfer starts.
With adding this state to the statistics channel, it can now show
the zone transfer in this state instead of as "Pending" when the
zone.c module is performing a refresh SOA request, before actually
starting the transfer process. This will help to understand
whether the process is waiting because of the rate limiter (i.e.
"Pending"), or the rate limiter is passed and it is now waiting for
the refresh SOA query to complete or time out.
Add a new field in the incoming zone transfers section of the
statistics channel to show the transport used for the SOA request.
When the transfer is started beginning from the XFRST_SOAQUERY state,
it means that the SOA query will be performed by xfrin itself, using
the same transport. Otherwise, it means that the SOA query was already
performed by other means (e.g. by zone.c:soa_query()), and, in that
case, we use the SOA query transport type information passed by the
'soa_transport_type' argument, when the xfrin object was created.
dns_xfrin_t state may be accessed from different threads when
when reporting transfer state. Ensure access is thread safe by
using atomics and locks where appropriate.
In some dns_transport getter functions it's possible to use a
const dns_transport_t as the first argument instead of just
dns_transport_t. Convert the function prototypes to use const.
Reusing TCP connections with dns_dispatch_gettcp() used linear linked
list to lookup existing outgoing TCP connections that could be reused.
Replace the linked list with per-loop cds_lfht hashtable to speedup the
lookups. We use cds_lfht because it allows non-unique node insertion
that we need to check for dispatches in different connection states.
Instead of high number of dispatches (4 * named_g_udpdisp)[1], make the
dispatches bound to threads and make dns_dispatchset_t create a dispatch
for each thread (event loop).
This required couple of other changes:
1. The dns_dispatch_createudp() must be called on loop, so the isc_tid()
is already initialized - changes to nsupdate and mdig were required.
2. The dns_requestmgr had only a single dispatch per v4 and v6. Instead
of using single dispatch, use dns_dispatchset_t for each protocol -
this is same as dns_resolver.
Add a configuration option, resolver-use-dns64, which when true
will cause named to map IPv4 address to IPv6 addresses using the
view's DNS64 mapping rules when making iterative queries.
1. Replace the "high-performance" macros that were only used if
DNS_NAME_USEINLINE was defined before including <dns/name.h> with
inline header functions with assertion checks and thus use them
everywhere.
2. Replace the old struct initializers with C99 designated initializers
for better understanding what is happening in these macros.
instead of allowing a NULL nametree in dns_nametree_covered(),
require nametree to exist, and ensure that the nametrees defined
for view and resolver objects are always created.
