An incorrect boundary check in the OPENPGPKEY rdatatype

A buffer accounting error could trigger an assertion failure

This flaw was discovered by Hanno Böck of the Fuzzing

New quotas have been added to limit the queries that are
|
|
sent by recursive resolvers to authoritative servers
|
|
experiencing denial-of-service attacks. When configured,
|
|
these options can both reduce the harm done to authoritative
|
|
servers and also avoid the resource exhaustion that can be
|
|
experienced by recursives when they are being used as a
|
|
vehicle for such an attack.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
NOTE: These options are not available by default; use
|
|
<span><strong class="command">configure --enable-fetchlimit</strong></span> to include
|
|
them in the build.

<code class="option">fetches-per-server</code> limits the number of
|
|
simultaneous queries that can be sent to any single
|
|
authoritative server. The configured value is a starting
|
|
point; it is automatically adjusted downward if the server is
|
|
partially or completely non-responsive. The algorithm used to
|
|
adjust the quota can be configured via the
|
|
<code class="option">fetch-quota-params</code> option.
|
|
</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>
|
|
<code class="option">fetches-per-zone</code> limits the number of
|
|
simultaneous queries that can be sent for names within a

|
single domain. (Note: Unlike "fetches-per-server", this
|
|
value is not self-tuning.)
|
|

Statistics counters have also been added to track the number

An <span><strong class="command">--enable-querytrace</strong></span> configure switch is
|

now available to enable very verbose query tracelogging. This

Large inline-signing changes should be less disruptive.

Signature generation is now done incrementally; the number

The experimental SIT extension now uses the EDNS COOKIE

option code point (10) and is displayed as "COOKIE:

<value>". The existing named.conf directives;
|
|
"request-sit", "sit-secret" and "nosit-udp-size", are

still valid and will be replaced by "send-cookie",

"cookie-secret" and "nocookie-udp-size" in BIND 9.11.

be replaced with "+cookie" in BIND 9.11.

When retrying a query via TCP due to the first answer being

response. [RT #39047]

Retrieving the local port range from net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range

Active Directory names of the form gc._msdcs.<forest> are

now accepted as valid hostnames when using the

<code class="option">check-names</code> option. <forest> is still
|
|
restricted to letters, digits and hyphens.

Names containing rich text are now accepted as valid

hostnames in PTR records in DNS-SD reverse lookup zones,

as specified in RFC 6763. [RT #37889]

The Microsoft Windows install tool

Several bugs have been fixed in the RPZ implementation:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="circle">
|
|
<li><p>
|
|
Policy zones that did not specifically require recursion
|
|
could be treated as if they did; consequently, setting
|
|
<span><strong class="command">qname-wait-recurse no;</strong></span> was
|
|
sometimes ineffective. This has been corrected.
|
|
In most configurations, behavioral changes due to this
|
|
fix will not be noticeable. [RT #39229]
|
|
</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>
|
|
The server could crash if policy zones were updated (e.g.
|
|
via <span><strong class="command">rndc reload</strong></span> or an incoming zone
|
|
transfer) while RPZ processing was still ongoing for an
|
|
active query. [RT #39415]
|
|
</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>
|
|
On servers with one or more policy zones configured as
|
|
slaves, if a policy zone updated during regular operation
|
|
(rather than at startup) using a full zone reload, such as
|
|
via AXFR, a bug could allow the RPZ summary data to fall out
|
|
of sync, potentially leading to an assertion failure in
|
|
rpz.c when further incremental updates were made to the
|
|
zone, such as via IXFR. [RT #39567]
|
|
</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>
|
|
The server could match a shorter prefix than what was
|
|
available in CLIENT-IP policy triggers, and so, an
|
|
unexpected action could be taken. This has been
|
|
corrected. [RT #39481]
|
|
</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>
|
|
The server could crash if a reload of an RPZ zone was
|
|
initiated while another reload of the same zone was
|
|
already in progress. [RT #39649]
|
|
</p></li>
|
|
<li><p>
|
|
Query names could match against the wrong policy zone
|
|
if wildcard records were present. [RT #40357]
