CVS commit: pkgsrc/net/udns



Module Name:    pkgsrc
Committed By:   adam
Date:           Fri Jan 28 08:29:34 UTC 2011

Modified Files:
        pkgsrc/net/udns: Makefile distinfo options.mk
        pkgsrc/net/udns/patches: patch-aa
Added Files:
        pkgsrc/net/udns/patches: patch-ab

Log Message:
Changes 0.1:
* bugfix: udns_new(old) - when actually cloning another context -
  makes the new context referencing memory from old, which leads
  to crashes when old is modified later
* use random queue IDs (the 16bit qID) in queries instead of sequentional
  ones, based on simple pseudo-random RNG by Bob Jenkins (udns_jran.[ch]).
  Some people believe that this improves security (CVE-2008-1447).  I'm
  still not convinced (see comments in udns_resolver.c), but it isn't
  difficult to add after all.
* deprecate dns_random16() function which was declared in udns.h
  (not anymore) but never documented.  In order to keep ABI compatible
  it is still exported.
* library has a way now to set query flags (DNS_SET_DO; DNS_SET_CD).
* dnsget now prints non-printable chars in all strings in DNS RRs using
  decimal escape sequences (\%03u) instead of hexadecimal (\%02x) when
  before - other DNS software does it like this.
* recognize a few more record types in dnsget, notable some DNSSEC RRs;
  add -f option for dnsget to set query flags.
* udns is not a Debian native package anymore (was a wrong idea)
