Parse the configuration of tls objects into SSL_CTX* objects. Listen on
DoT if 'tls' option is setup in listen-on directive. Use DoT/DoH ports
for DoT/DoH.
This commit adds stub parser support and tests for:
- "tls" statement, specifying key and cert.
- an optional "tls" keyvalue in listen-on statements for DoT
configuration.
Documentation for these options has also been added to the ARM, but
needs further work.
there were two failures during observed in testing, both occurring
when 'rndc halt' was run rather than 'rndc stop' - the latter dumps
zone contents to disk and presumably introduced enough delay to
prevent the races:
- a failure when the zone was shut down and called dns_xfrin_detach()
before the xfrin had finished connecting; the connect timeout
terminated without detaching its handle
- a failure when the tcpdns socket timer fired after the outerhandle
had already been cleared.
this commit incidentally addresses a failure observed in mutexatomic
due to a variable having been initialized incorrectly.
This commit extends the perl Configure script to also check for libssl
in addition to libcrypto and change the vcxproj source files to link
with both libcrypto and libssl.
If the call to cd->dlz_create() in dlopen_dlz_create() fails, cd->dbdata
may be NULL when dlopen_dlz_destroy() gets called in the cleanup path
and passing NULL to the cd->dlz_destroy() callback may cause a NULL
dereference. Ensure that does not happen by checking whether cd->dbdata
is non-NULL before calling the cd->dlz_destroy() callback.
While libltdl is a feature-rich library, BIND 9 code only uses its basic
capabilities, which are also provided by libuv and which BIND 9 already
uses for other purposes. As libuv's cross-platform shared library
handling interface is modeled after the POSIX dlopen() interface,
converting code using the latter to the former is simple. Replace
libltdl function calls with their libuv counterparts, refactoring the
code as necessary. Remove all use of libltdl from the BIND 9 source
tree.
The cleanup code that would clean the object after plugin/dlz/dyndb
loading has failed was duplicating the destructor for the object, so
instead of the extra code, we just use the destructor instead.
Make sure an error gets logged when any lt_dlopen() call in the source
tree fails. Also make sure that NULL values returned by lt_dlerror()
are replaced with a generic error message to prevent passing NULL as an
argument for the %s format specifier.
The redundant lt_dlerror() calls were taken from the examples to clean
any previous errors from lt_dl...() calls. However upon code
inspection, it was discovered there are no such paths that could cause
the lt_dlerror() to return spurious error messages.
When `rndc stop` is received, the isc_app_shutdown() was being called
before response to the rndc client has been sent; as the
isc_app_shutdown() also tears down the netmgr, the message was never
sent and rndc would complain about connection being interrupted in the
middle of the transaction. We now postpone the shutdown after the rndc
response has been sent.
1. The isc__nm_tcp_send() and isc__nm_tcp_read() was not checking
whether the socket was still alive and scheduling reads/sends on
closed socket.
2. The isc_nm_read(), isc_nm_send() and isc_nm_resumeread() have been
changed to always return the error conditions via the callbacks, so
they always succeed. This applies to all protocols (UDP, TCP and
TCPDNS).
The controllistener could be freed before the event posted by
isc_nm_stoplistening() has been processed. This commit adds
a reference counter to the controllistener to determine when
to free the listener.
The DNS Flag Day 2020 aims to remove the IP fragmentation problem from
the UDP DNS communication. In this commit, we implement the required
changes and simplify the logic for picking the EDNS Buffer Size.
1. The defaults for `edns-udp-size`, `max-udp-size` and
`nocookie-udp-size` have been changed to `1232` (the value picked by
DNS Flag Day 2020).
2. The probing heuristics that would try 512->4096->1432->1232 buffer
sizes has been removed and the resolver will always use just the
`edns-udp-size` value.
3. Instead of just disabling the PMTUD mechanism on the UDP sockets, we
now set IP_DONTFRAG (IPV6_DONTFRAG) flag. That means that the UDP
packets won't get ever fragmented. If the ICMP packets are lost the
UDP will just timeout and eventually be retried over TCP.
This command is similar in arguments as -checkds so refactor the
'named_server_dnssec' function accordingly. The only difference
are that:
- It does not take a "publish" or "withdrawn" argument.
- It requires the key id to be set (add a check to make sure).
Add tests that will trigger rollover immediately and one that
schedules a test in the future.
The dotat() function has been changed to send the TAT
query asynchronously, so there's no lock order loop
because we initialize the data first and then we schedule
the TAT send to happen asynchronously.
This breaks following lock-order loops:
zone->lock (dns_zone_setviewcommit) while holding view->lock
(dns_view_setviewcommit)
keytable->lock (dns_keytable_find) while holding zone->lock
(zone_asyncload)
view->lock (dns_view_findzonecut) while holding keytable->lock
(dns_keytable_forall)
No issues with the glue cache feature have been reported since its
introduction in BIND 9.12. As the rationale for introducing the
"glue-cache" option was to have a safety switch readily available in
case the glue cache turns out to cause problems, it is time to deprecate
the option. Glue cache will be permanently enabled in a future release,
at which point the "glue-cache" option will be made obsolete.
Attaching and detaching handle pointers will make it easier to
determine where and why reference counting errors have occurred.
A handle needs to be referenced more than once when multiple
asynchronous operations are in flight, so callers must now maintain
multiple handle pointers for each pending operation. For example,
ns_client objects now contain:
- reqhandle: held while waiting for a request callback (query,
notify, update)
- sendhandle: held while waiting for a send callback
- fetchhandle: held while waiting for a recursive fetch to
complete
- updatehandle: held while waiting for an update-forwarding
task to complete
control channel connection objects now contain:
- readhandle: held while waiting for a read callback
- sendhandle: held while waiting for a send callback
- cmdhandle: held while an rndc command is running
httpd connections contain:
- readhandle: held while waiting for a read callback
- sendhandle: held while waiting for a send callback
An implicit default of "max-cache-size 90%;" may cause memory use issues
on hosts which run numerous named instances in parallel (e.g. GitLab CI
runners) due to the cache RBT hash table now being pre-allocated [1] at
startup. Add a new command line option, "-T maxcachesize=...", to allow
the default value of "max-cache-size" to be overridden at runtime. When
this new option is in effect, it overrides any other "max-cache-size"
setting in the configuration, either implicit or explicit. This
approach was chosen because it is arguably the simplest one to
implement.
The following alternative approaches to solving this problem were
considered and ultimately rejected (after it was decided they were not
worth the extra code complexity):
- adding the same command line option, but making explicit
configuration statements have priority over it,
- adding a build-time option that allows the implicit default of
"max-cache-size 90%;" to be overridden.

Add a new 'rndc' command 'dnssec -checkds' that allows the user to
signal named that a new DS record has been seen published in the
parent, or that an existing DS record has been withdrawn from the
parent.
Upon the 'checkds' request, 'named' will write out the new state for
the key, updating the 'DSPublish' or 'DSRemoved' timing metadata.
This replaces the "parent-registration-delay" configuration option,
this was unreliable because it was purely time based (if the user
did not actually submit the new DS to the parent for example, this
could result in an invalid DNSSEC state).
Because we cannot rely on the parent registration delay for state
transition, we need to replace it with a different guard. Instead,
if a key wants its DS state to be moved to RUMOURED, the "DSPublish"
time must be set and must not be in the future. If a key wants its
DS state to be moved to UNRETENTIVE, the "DSRemoved" time must be set
and must not be in the future.
By default, with '-checkds' you set the time that the DS has been
published or withdrawn to now, but you can set a different time with
'-when'. If there is only one KSK for the zone, that key has its
DS state moved to RUMOURED. If there are multiple keys for the zone,
specify the right key with '-key'.
The current serve-stale implementation in BIND 9 stores all received
records in the cache for a max-stale-ttl interval (default 12 hours).
This allows DNS operators to turn the serve-stale answers in an event of
large authoritative DNS outage. The caching of the stale answers needs
to be enabled before the outage happens or the feature would be
otherwise useless.
The negative consequence of the default setting is the inevitable
cache-bloat that happens for every and each DNS operator running named.
In this MR, a new configuration option `stale-cache-enable` is
introduced that allows the operators to selectively enable or disable
the serve-stale feature of BIND 9 based on their decision.
The newly introduced option has been disabled by default,
e.g. serve-stale is disabled in the default configuration and has to be
enabled if required.
Created isc_refcount_decrement_expect macro to test conditionally
the return value to ensure it is in expected range. Converted
unchecked isc_refcount_decrement to use isc_refcount_decrement_expect.
Converted INSIST(isc_refcount_decrement()...) to isc_refcount_decrement_expect.
Since October 2019 I have had complaints from `dnssec-cds` reporting
that the signatures on some of my test zones had expired. These were
zones signed by BIND 9.15 or 9.17, with a DNSKEY TTL of 24h and
`sig-validity-interval 10 8`.
This is the same setup we have used for our production zones since
2015, which is intended to re-sign the zones every 2 days, keeping
at least 8 days signature validity. The SOA expire interval is 7
days, so even in the presence of zone transfer problems, no-one
should ever see expired signatures. (These timers are a bit too
tight to be completely correct, because I should have increased
the expiry timers when I increased the DNSKEY TTLs from 1h to 24h.
But that should only matter when zone transfers are broken, which
was not the case for the error reports that led to this patch.)
For example, this morning my test zone contained:
dev.dns.cam.ac.uk. 86400 IN RRSIG DNSKEY 13 5 86400 (
20200701221418 20200621213022 ...)
But one of my resolvers had cached:
dev.dns.cam.ac.uk. 21424 IN RRSIG DNSKEY 13 5 86400 (
20200622063022 20200612061136 ...)
This TTL was captured at 20200622105807 so the resolver cached the
RRset 64976 seconds previously (18h02m56s), at 20200621165511
only about 12h before expiry.
The other symptom of this error was incorrect `resign` times in
the output from `rndc zonestatus`.
For example, I have configured a test zone
zone fast.dotat.at {
file "../u/z/fast.dotat.at";
type primary;
auto-dnssec maintain;
sig-validity-interval 500 499;
};
The zone is reset to a minimal zone containing only SOA and NS
records, and when `named` starts it loads and signs the zone. After
that, `rndc zonestatus` reports:
next resign node: fast.dotat.at/NS
next resign time: Fri, 28 May 2021 12:48:47 GMT
The resign time should be within the next 24h, but instead it is
near the signature expiry time, which the RRSIG(NS) says is
20210618074847. (Note 499 hours is a bit more than 20 days.)
May/June 2021 is less than 500 days from now because expiry time
jitter is applied to the NS records.
Using this test I bisected this bug to 09990672d which contained a
mistake leading to the resigning interval always being calculated in
hours, when days are expected.
This bug only occurs for configurations that use the two-argument form
of `sig-validity-interval`.
When we're shutting the system down via "rndc stop" or "rndc halt",
or reconfiguring the control channel, there are potential shutdown
races between the server task and network manager. These are adressed by:
- purging any pending command tasks when shutting down the control channel
- adding an extra handle reference before the command handler to
ensure the handle can't be deleted out from under us before calling
command_respond()
- using an isc_task to execute all rndc functions makes it relatively
simple for them to acquire task exclusive mode when needed
- control_recvmessage() has been separated into two functions,
control_recvmessage() and control_respond(). the respond function
can be called immediately from control_recvmessage() when processing
a nonce, or it can be called after returning from the task event
that ran the rndc command function.
- updated libisccc to use netmgr events
- updated rndc to use isc_nm_tcpconnect() to establish connections
- updated control channel to use isc_nm_listentcp()
open issues:
- the control channel timeout was previously 60 seconds, but it is now
overridden by the TCP idle timeout setting, which defaults to 30
seconds. we should add a function that sets the timeout value for
a specific listener socket, instead of always using the global value
set in the netmgr. (for the moment, since 30 seconds is a reasonable
timeout for the control channel, I'm not prioritizing this.)
- the netmgr currently has no support for UNIX-domain sockets; until
this is addressed, it will not be possible to configure rndc to use
them. we will need to either fix this or document the change in
behavior.
