|
|
<p>
|
|
ICANN is in the process of introducing a new Key Signing Key (KSK) for
|
|
the global root zone. BIND has multiple methods for managing DNSSEC
|
|
trust anchors, with somewhat different behaviors. If the root
|
|
key is configured using the <span class="command"><strong>managed-keys</strong></span>
|
|
statement, or if the pre-configured root key is enabled by using
|
|
<span class="command"><strong>dnssec-validation auto</strong></span>, then BIND can keep
|
|
keys up to date automatically. Servers configured in this way
|
|
will roll seamlessly to the new key when it is published in
|
|
the root zone. However, keys configured using the
|
|
<span class="command"><strong>trusted-keys</strong></span> statement are not automatically
|
|
maintained. If your server is performing DNSSEC validation
|
|
and is configured using <span class="command"><strong>trusted-keys</strong></span>, you are
|
|
advised to change your configuration before the root zone begins
|
|
signing with the new KSK. This is currently scheduled for
|
|
October 11, 2017.
|
|
</p>
|

|
This release includes an updated version of the
|
|
<code class="filename">bind.keys</code> file containing the new root
|
|
key. This file can also be downloaded from

The BIND installer on Windows used an unquoted service path,
|
|
which can enable privilege escalation. This flaw is disclosed
|
|
in CVE-2017-3141. [RT #45229]

With certain RPZ configurations, a response with TTL 0

query loop. This flaw is disclosed in CVE-2017-3140.

Threads in <span class="command"><strong>named</strong></span> are now set to human-readable
|
|
names to assist debugging on operating systems that support that.
|
|
Threads will have names such as "isc-timer", "isc-sockmgr",
|
|
"isc-worker0001", and so on. This will affect the reporting of
|
|
subsidiary thread names in <span class="command"><strong>ps</strong></span> and

<span class="command"><strong>top</strong></span>, but not the main thread. [RT #43234]
