Be stricter in durations that are accepted. Basically we accept ISO 8601
formats, but fail to detect garbage after the integers in such strings.
For example, 'P7.5D' will be treated as 7 days. Pass 'endptr' to
'strtoll' and check if the endptr is at the correct suffix.
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.
replace the string "rbt" throughout BIND with "qp" so that
qpdb databases will be used by default instead of rbtdb.
rbtdb databases can still be used by specifying "database rbt;"
in a zone statement.
Using the 'dnssec-validation yes' option now requires an explicitly
confgiured 'trust-anchors' statement (or 'managed-keys' or
'trusted-keys', both deprecated).
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.
the 'low', 'high' and 'discount' parameters to 'fetch-quota-param'
are meant to be ratios with values between zero and one, but higher
values can be assigned. this could potentially lead to an assertion
in maybe_adjust_quota().
This is now the default way to implement attaching to/detaching from
a pointer.
Also update cfg_keystore_fromconfig() to allow NULL value for the
keystore pointer. In most cases we detach it immediately after the
function call.
Add a default key-directory parameter to the function that can
be returned if there is no keystore, or if the keystore directory
is NULL (the latter is also true for the built-in keystore).
The name "uri" was considered to be too generic and could potentially
clash with a future URI configuration option. Renamed to "pkcs11-uri".
Note that this option name was also preferred over "pkcs11uri", the
dash is considered to be the more clearer form.
If there is a keystore configured with a PKCS#11 URI, zones that
are using a dnssec-policy that uses such a keystore should create keys
via the PKCS#11 interface. Those keys are generally stored inside an
HSM.
Some changes to the code are required, to store the engine reference
into the keystore.
When creating the kasp structure, instead of storing the name of the
key store on keys, store a reference to the key store object instead.
This requires to build the keystore list prior to creating the kasp
structures, in the dnssec tools, the check code and the server code.
We will create a builtin keystore called "key-directory" which means
use the zone's key-directory as the key store.
The check code changes, because now the keystore is looked up before
creating the kasp structure (and if the keystore is not found, this
is an error). Instead of looking up the keystore after all
'dnssec-policy' clauses have been read.
Similar to key-directory, check for zones in different views and
different key and signing policies. Zones must be using different key
directories to store key files on disk.
Now that a key directory can be linked with a dnssec-policy key, the
'keydirexist' checking needs to be reshuffled.
Add tests for bad configuration examples, named-checkconf should catch
those. Also add test cases for a mix of key-directory and key-store
directory.
Similar to key-directory, check if the key-store directory exists and
if it is an actual directory.
This commit fixes an accidental test bug in checkconf where if
the "warn key-dir" test failed, the result was ignored.
Add checkconf check to ensure that the used key-store in the keys
section exists. Error if that is not the case. We also don't allow
the special keyword 'key-directory' as that is internally used to
signal that the zone's key-directory should be used.
Add code for configuring keystore objects. Add this to the "kaspconf"
code, as it is related to 'dnssec-policy' and it is too small to create
a separate file for it.
Add new configuration for setting key stores. The new 'key-store'
statement allows users to configure key store backends. These can be
of type 'file' (that works the same as 'key-directory') or of type
'pkcs11'. In the latter case, keys should be stored in a HSM that is
accessible through a PKCS#11 interface.
Keys configured within 'dnssec-policy' can now also use the 'key-store'
option to set a specific key store.
Update the checkconf test to accomodate for the new configuration.
Remove the CFG_CLAUSEFLAG_EXPERIMENTAL flag from the
"trust-anchor-telemetry" statement as the behavior of the latter has not
been changed since its initial implementation and there are currently no
plans to do so. This silences a relevant log message that was emitted
even when the feature was explicitly disabled.
these options control default timing of retries in the resolver
for experimental purposes; they are not known to useful in production
environments. they will be removed in the future; for now, we
only log a warning if they are used.
The main intention of PROXY protocol is to pass endpoints information
to a back-end server (in our case - BIND). That means that it is a
valid way to spoof endpoints information, as the addresses and ports
extracted from PROXYv2 headers, from the point of view of BIND, are
used instead of the real connection addresses.
Of course, an ability to easily spoof endpoints information can be
considered a security issue when used uncontrollably. To resolve that,
we introduce 'allow-proxy' and 'allow-proxy-on' ACL options. These are
the only ACL options in BIND that work with real PROXY connections
addresses, allowing a DNS server operator to specify from what clients
and on which interfaces he or she is willing to accept PROXY
headers. By default, for security reasons we do not allow to accept
them.
This commit extends "listen-on" statement with "proxy" options that
allows one to enable PROXYv2 support on a dedicated listener. It can
have the following values:
- "plain" to send PROXYv2 headers without encryption, even in the case
of encrypted transports.
- "encrypted" to send PROXYv2 headers encrypted right after the TLS
handshake.
The AES algorithm for DNS cookies was being kept for legacy reasons, and
it can be safely removed in the next major release. Remove both the AES
usage for DNS cookies and the AES implementation itself.
The AES algorithm for DNS cookies was being kept for legacy reasons,
and it can be safely removed in the next major release. Mark is as
deprecated, so the `named-checkconf` prints a warning when in use.
The lock-file configuration (both from configuration file and -X
argument to named) has better alternatives nowadays. Modern process
supervisor should be used to ensure that a single named process is
running on a given configuration.
Alternatively, it's possible to wrap the named with flock(1).
This is first step in removing the lock-file configuration option, it
marks both the `lock-file` configuration directive and -X option to
named as deprecated.
The Unix Domain Sockets support in BIND 9 has been completely disabled
since BIND 9.18 and it has been a fatal error since then. Cleanup the
code and the documentation that suggest that Unix Domain Sockets are
supported.
Add a configuration option, resolver-use-dns64, which when true
will cause named to map IPv4 address to IPv6 addresses using the
view's DNS64 mapping rules when making iterative queries.
The dnssec-must-be-secure feature was added in the early days of BIND 9
and DNSSEC and it makes sense only as a debugging feature.
Remove the feature to simplify the code.
these options concentrate zone maintenance actions into
bursts for the benefit of servers with intermittent connections.
that's no longer something we really need to optimize.
When using automated DNSSEC management, it is required that the zone
is dynamic, or that inline-signing is enabled (or both). Update the
checkconf code to also allow inline-signing to be enabled within
dnssec-policy.
