Log Message:
Update bind99 to 9.9.8.
Security Fixes
* An incorrect boundary check in the OPENPGPKEY rdatatype could
trigger an assertion failure. This flaw is disclosed in
CVE-2015-5986. [RT #40286]
* A buffer accounting error could trigger an assertion failure when
parsing certain malformed DNSSEC keys.
This flaw was discovered by Hanno Böck of the Fuzzing Project, and
is disclosed in CVE-2015-5722. [RT #40212]
* A specially crafted query could trigger an assertion failure in
message.c.
This flaw was discovered by Jonathan Foote, and is disclosed in
CVE-2015-5477. [RT #40046]
* On servers configured to perform DNSSEC validation, an assertion
failure could be triggered on answers from a specially configured
server.
This flaw was discovered by Breno Silveira Soares, and is disclosed
in CVE-2015-4620. [RT #39795]
New Features
* 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.
NOTE: These options are not available by default; use configure
--enable-fetchlimit to include them in the build.
+ fetches-per-server 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 fetch-quota-params option.
+ fetches-per-zone 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 of
queries affected by these quotas.
* An --enable-querytrace configure switch is now available to enable
very verbose query tracelogging. This option can only be set at
compile time. This option has a negative performance impact and
should be used only for debugging.
* EDNS COOKIE options content is now displayed as "COOKIE:
<hexvalue>".
Feature Changes
* Large inline-signing changes should be less disruptive. Signature
generation is now done incrementally; the number of signatures to
be generated in each quantum is controlled by
"sig-signing-signatures number;". [RT #37927]
* Retrieving the local port range from net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range
on Linux is now supported.
* Active Directory names of the form gc._msdcs.<forest> are now
accepted as valid hostnames when using the check-names 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]
Bug Fixes
* Asynchronous zone loads were not handled correctly when the zone
load was already in progress; this could trigger a crash in zt.c.
[RT #37573]
* A race during shutdown or reconfiguration could cause an assertion
failure in mem.c. [RT #38979]
* Some answer formatting options didn't work correctly with dig
+short. [RT #39291]
* Malformed records of some types, including NSAP and UNSPEC, could
trigger assertion failures when loading text zone files. [RT
#40274] [RT #40285]
* Fixed a possible crash in ratelimiter.c caused by NOTIFY messages
being removed from the wrong rate limiter queue. [RT #40350]
* The default rrset-order of random was inconsistently applied. [RT
#40456]
* BADVERS responses from broken authoritative name servers were not
handled correctly. [RT #40427]
