Introduce a new DNSSEC tool, dnssec-ksr, for creating signed key
response (SKR) files, given one or more key signing requests (KSRs).
For now it is just a dummy tool, but the future purpose of this utility
is to pregenerate ZSKs and signed RRsets for DNSKEY, CDNSKEY, and CDS
for a given period that a KSK is to be offline.
by default, QPDB is the database used by named and all tools and
unit tests. the old default of RBTDB can now be restored by using
"configure --with-zonedb=rbt --with-cachedb=rbt".
some tests have been fixed so they will work correctly with either
database.
CHANGES and release notes have been updated to reflect this change.
This commit improves the documentation on the ephemeral TLS
configuration and describes in more detail what is happening with TLS
configurations on reconfiguration in general.
A release note for CVE-2023-50868 was not included in BIND 9.19.21, even
though that vulnerability was already addressed in that release (by the
fix for CVE-2023-50387). Retroactively add a relevant release note for
BIND 9.19.21.
Using the 'dnssec-validation yes' option now requires an explicitly
confgiured 'trust-anchors' statement (or 'managed-keys' or
'trusted-keys', both deprecated).
"A parental agent is the entity that is allowed to change a zone's
delegation information" is untrue, because it is possible to use some
hidden server or a validating resolver.
Also the new text makes it more clear that named sends DS queries to
these servers.
Instead of running all the cryptographic validation in a tight loop,
spread it out into multiple event loop "ticks", but moving every single
validation into own isc_async_run() asynchronous event. Move the
cryptographic operations - both verification and DNSKEY selection - to
the offloaded threads (isc_work_enqueue), this further limits the time
we spend doing expensive operations on the event loops that should be
fast.
Limit the impact of invalid or malicious RRSets that contain crafted
records causing the dns_validator to do many validations per single
fetch by adding a cap on the maximum number of validations and maximum
number of validation failures that can happen before the resolving
fails.
