3786. [func] Provide more detailed error codes when using
native PKCS#11. "pkcs11-tokens" now fails robustly
rather than asserting when run against an HSM with
an incomplete PCKS#11 API implementation. [RT #35479]
3730. [cleanup] Added "never" as a synonym for "none" when
configuring key event dates in the dnssec tools.
[RT #35277]
3729. [bug] dnssec-kegeyn could set the publication date
incorrectly when only the activation date was
specified on the command line. [RT #35278]
3705. [func] "configure --enable-native-pkcs11" enables BIND
to use the PKCS#11 API for all cryptographic
functions, so that it can drive a hardware service
module directly without the need to use a modified
OpenSSL as intermediary (so long as the HSM's vendor
provides a complete-enough implementation of the
PKCS#11 interface). This has been tested successfully
with the Thales nShield HSM and with SoftHSMv2 from
the OpenDNSSEC project. [RT #29031]
creating key files if there is a chance that the new
key ID will collide with an existing one after
either of the keys has been revoked. (To override
this in the case of dnssec-keyfromlabel, use the -y
option. dnssec-keygen will simply create a
different, noncolliding key, so an override is
not necessary.) [RT #20838]
activation date in all cases. [RT #20648]
2779. [bug] Dynamic key revokation could fail. [RT #20644]
2778. [bug] dnssec-signzone could fail when a key was revoked
without deleting the unrevoked version. [RT #20638]
to be fully automated in zones configured for
dynamic DNS. 'auto-dnssec allow;' permits a zone
to be signed by creating keys for it in the
key-directory and using 'rndc sign <zone>'.
'auto-dnssec maintain;' allows that too, plus it
also keeps the zone's DNSSEC keys up to date
according to their timing metadata. [RT #19943]
to be specified in the label if there is a default
engine or the -E option has been used. Also, it
now uses default algorithms as dnssec-keygen does
(i.e., RSASHA1, or NSEC3RSASHA1 if -3 is used).
[RT #20371]
- Keys without "publish" or "active" dates set will
no longer be used for smart signing. However,
those dates will be set to "now" by default when
a key is created; to generate a key but not use
it yet, use dnssec-keygen -G.
- New "inactive" date (dnssec-keygen/settime -I)
sets the time when a key is no longer used for
signing but is still published.
- The "unpublished" date (-U) is deprecated in
favor of "deleted" (-D).
[rt20247]
- dnssec-keygen and dnssec-settime can now set key
metadata fields 0 (to unset a value, use "none")
- dnssec-revoke sets the revocation date in
addition to the revoke bit
- dnssec-settime can now print individual metadata
fields instead of always printing all of them,
and can print them in unix epoch time format for
use by scripts
