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.
Support for FreeBSD 12.4, the last FreeBSD 12.x release, ended on
December 31, 2023.

Move the --with-readline=editline ./configure option to FreeBSD 14.
Update the minimum required version of pkcs11-provider that contains the
fixes needed in order to make it work with dnssec-policy.
Update documentation to not recommend using engine_pkcs11 in conjunction
with dnssec-policy.
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.
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 system tests on OpenBSD consistently exhibit lower stability
compared to our other CI platforms. Some of these challenges are
intrinsic to the system test itself and require attention. However,
there are OpenBSD issues, which seem to be more widespread on this
platform than others. In our daily CI pipelines, OpenBSD system tests
often bear the brunt of all failed CI jobs.
It's possible that our OpenBSD CI image could be optimized, but we
currently lack the domain-specific knowledge needed to make
improvements.
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.
