<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem"><p>
Insufficient testing when parsing a message allowed
records with an incorrect class to be be accepted,
triggering a REQUIRE failure when those records
were subsequently cached. This flaw is disclosed
in CVE-2015-8000. [RT #40987]
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Incorrect reference counting could result in an INSIST
failure if a socket error occurred while performing a
lookup. This flaw is disclosed in CVE-2015-8461. [RT#40945]
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Specific APL data could trigger an INSIST. This flaw
is disclosed in CVE-2015-8704. [RT #41396]
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Certain errors that could be encountered when printing out
or logging an OPT record containing a CLIENT-SUBNET option
could be mishandled, resulting in an assertion failure.
This flaw is disclosed in CVE-2015-8705. [RT #41397]

<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; "><li class="listitem"><p>
The following types have been implemented: CSYNC, NINFO, RKEY,
SINK, TA, TALINK.

<a name="relnotes_changes"></a>Feature Changes</h3></div></div></div>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem"><p>
Updated the compiled in addresses for H.ROOT-SERVERS.NET.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
The default preferred glue is now the address type of the
transport the query was received over.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
On machines with 2 or more processors (CPU), the default value
for the number of UDP listeners has been changed to the number
of detected processors minus one.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Zone transfers now use smaller message sizes to improve
message compression. This results in reduced network usage.
</p></li>
</ul></div>

<a name="relnotes_bugs"></a>Bug Fixes</h3></div></div></div>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem"><p>
The server could crash due to a use-after-free if a
zone transfer timed out. [RT #41297]
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Authoritative servers that were marked as bogus (e.g. blackholed
in configuration or with invalid addresses) were being queried
anyway. [RT #41321]
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Some of the options for GeoIP ACLs, including "areacode",
"metrocode", and "timezone", were incorrectly documented
as "area", "metro" and "tz". Both the long and abbreviated
versions are now accepted.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Zones configured to use <span class="command"><strong>map</strong></span> format
master files can't be used as policy zones because RPZ
summary data isn't compiled when such zones are mapped into
memory. This limitation may be fixed in a future release,
but in the meantime it has been documented, and attempting
to use such zones in <span class="command"><strong>response-policy</strong></span>
statements is now a configuration error. [RT #38321]
</p></li>
</ul></div>

<a name="end_of_life"></a>End of Life</h3></div></div></div>
<p>
The end of life for BIND 9.10 is yet to be determined but
will not be before BIND 9.12.0 has been released for 6 months.
