3938. [func] Added quotas to be used in recursive resolvers
that are under high query load for names in zones
whose authoritative servers are nonresponsive or
are experiencing a denial of service attack.
- "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.)
- New stats counters have been added to count
queries spilled due to these quotas.
These options are not available by default;
use "configure --enable-fetchlimit" (or
--enable-developer) to include them in the build.
See the ARM for details of these options. [RT #37125]
4006. [security] A flaw in delegation handling could be exploited
to put named into an infinite loop. This has
been addressed by placing limits on the number
of levels of recursion named will allow (default 7),
and the number of iterative queries that it will
send (default 50) before terminating a recursive
query (CVE-2014-8500).
The recursion depth limit is configured via the
"max-recursion-depth" option. [RT #35780]
3731. [func] Added a "no-case-compress" ACL, which causes
named to use case-insensitive compression
(disabling change #3645) for specified
clients. (This is useful when dealing
with broken client implementations that
use case-sensitive name comparisons,
rejecting responses that fail to match the
capitalization of the query that was sent.)
[RT #35300]
(cherry picked from commit 166341d554)
This incorporates the following changes, plus a new configure
option "--enable-rrl" to turn them on:
3575. [func] Changed the logging category for RRL events from
'queries' to 'query-errors'. [RT #33540]
3554. [bug] RRL failed to correctly rate-limit upward
referrals and failed to count dropped error
responses in the statistics. [RT #33225]
3545. [bug] RRL slip behavior was incorrect when set to 1.
[RT #33111]
3518. [bug] Increase the size of dns_rrl_key.s.rtype by one bit
so that all dns_rrl_rtype_t enum values fit regardless
of whether it is teated as signed or unsigned by
the compiler. [RT #32792]
3494. [func] DNS RRL: Blunt the impact of DNS reflection and
amplification attacks by rate-limiting substantially-
identical responses. To enable, use "configure
--enable-rrl". [RT #28130]
3501. [func] zone-statistics now takes three options: full,
terse, and none. "yes" and "no" are retained as
synonyms for full and terse, respectively. [RT #29165]
(cherry picked from commit 40a7e85f3e)
3496. [func] Improvements to RPZ performance. The "response-policy"
syntax now includes a "min-ns-dots" clause, with
default 1, to exclude top-level domains from
NSIP and NSDNAME checking. --enable-rpz-nsip and
--enable-rpz-nsdname are now the default. [RT #32251]
Response policy (rpz) changes to
- add zone statistics
- speed up by adding min-ns-dots to the response-policy syntax
with a default of 1
- detect and reject policy zones with a database other than rbt
only rbtdb has rpz hooks
- allow empty response-policy{} statement
- make --enable-rpz-nsip and --enable-rpz-nsdname the default
Add
- optional "recursive-only yes|no" to the response-policy statement
- optional max-policy-ttl to limit the lies that "recursive-only no"
can introduce into resolvers' caches
- test that queries with RD=0 are not rewritten by default
- performance smoke test
Change encoding of PASSTHRU action to "rpz-passthru".
(The old encoding is still accepted.)
Fix rt26180 assert botch in zone_findrdataset() in this branch
as well.
Fix missing signatures on NOERROR results despite RPZ hits
when there are signatures and the client asks for DNSSEC,
- fix precedence among competing rules
- improve ARM text including documenting rule precedence
- try to rewrite CNAME chains until first hit
- new "rpz" logging channel
- same fix for "NS ." as in RT 24985
of DNSSEC records in signed dynamic zones. Set to
'no-resign' to disable automatic RRSIG regeneration
while retaining the ability to sign new or changed
data. [RT #24533]
as a zone's masters clause. This means it is
now possible to specify a TSIG key to use when
sending notifies to a given server, or to include
an explicit named masters list in an also-notfiy
statement. [RT #23508]
how often, in minutes, to check the key repository
for updates when using automatic key maintenance.
Default is every 60 minutes (formerly hard-coded
to 12 hours). [RT #23744]
3101. [bug] Zones using automatic key maintenance could fail
to check the key repository for updates. [RT #23744]
to 10. Allow setting this in named.conf using the new
'resolver-query-timeout' option, which specifies a max
time in seconds. 0 means 'default' and anything longer
than 30 will be silently set to 30. [RT #22852]
