Support for non-dotted-quad IPv4 addresses in master files was dropped
when the inet_aton() call inside getquad() got replaced with a call to
inet_pton(), so a release note should have been added back then to
inform users that such syntax will no longer work.
4859. [bug] A loop was possible when attempting to validate
unsigned CNAME responses from secure zones;
this caused a delay in returning SERVFAIL and
also increased the chances of encountering
CVE-2017-3145. [RT #46839]
4858. [security] Addresses could be referenced after being freed
in resolver.c, causing an assertion failure.
(CVE-2017-3145) [RT #46839]
4836. [bug] Zones created using "rndc addzone" could
temporarily fail to inherit an "allow-transfer"
ACL that had been configured in the options
statement. [RT #46603]
4798. [func] Keys specified in "managed-keys" statements
are tagged as "initializing" until they have been
updated by a key refresh query. If initialization
fails it will be visible from "rndc secroots".
[RT #46267]
this completes change 4785. the CHANGES note has been revised:
4785. [func] The hmac-md5 algorithm is no longer recommended for
use with RNDC keys. The default in rndc-confgen
is now hmac-sha256. [RT #42272]
4785. [func] The hmac-md5 algorithm is no longer recommended for
use with RNDC keys. For compatibility reasons, it
it is still the default algorithm in rndc-confgen,
but this will be changed to hmac-sha256 in a future
release. [RT #42272]
4784. [func] The use of dnssec-keygen to generate HMAC keys is
deprecated in favor of tsig-keygen. dnssec-keygen
will print a warning when used for this purpose.
All HMAC algorithms will be removed from
dnssec-keygen in a future release. [RT #42272]
This reverts commit 560d8b833e.
This change created a potential race between key refresh queries and
root zone priming queries which could leave the root name servers in
the bad-server cache.
4773. [bug] Keys specified in "managed-keys" statements
can now only be used when validating key refresh
queries during initialization of RFC 5011 key
maintenance. If initialization fails, DNSSEC
validation of normal queries will also fail.
Previously, validation of normal queries could
succeed using the initializing key, potentially
masking problems with managed-keys. [RT #46077]
4768. [func] By default, memory is no longer filled with tag values
when it is allocated or freed; this improves
performance but makes debugging of certain memory
issues more difficult. "named -M fill" turns memory
filling back on. (Building "configure
--enable-developer", turns memory fill on by
default again; it can then be disabled with
"named -M nofill".) [RT #45123]
4762. [func] "update-policy local" is now restricted to updates
from local addresses. (Previously, other addresses
were allowed so long as updates were signed by the
local session key.) [RT #45492]
4757. [func] New "dnssec-cds" command creates a new parent DS
RRset based on CDS or CDNSKEY RRsets found in
a child zone, and generates either a dsset file
or stream of nsupdate commands to update the
parent. Thanks to Tony Finch. [RT #46090]
4751. [func] "dnssec-signzone -S" can now automatically add parent
synchronization records (CDS and CDNSKEY) according
to key metadata set using the -Psync and -Dsync
options to dnssec-keygen and dnssec-settime.
[RT #46149]
4750. [func] "rndc managed-keys destroy" shuts down RFC 5011 key
maintenance and deletes the managed-keys database.
If followed by "rndc reconfig" or a server restart,
key maintenance is reinitialized from scratch.
This is primarily intended for testing. [RT #32456]
4749. [func] The ISC DLV service has been shut down, and all
DLV records have been removed from dlv.isc.org.
- Removed references to ISC DLV in documentation
- Removed DLV key from bind.keys
- No longer use ISC DLV by default in delv
