Rationale: the nonce here is only used to make sure there is a low
probability of duplication, according to section B.2 of RFC7873.
It is only 32-bit, and even if an attacker knows the algorithm used
to generate nonces it won't, in any way, give him any platform to
attack the server as long as server secret used to sign the
(nonce, time) pair with HMAC-SHA1 is secure.
On the other hand, currently, each packet sent requires (unnecessarily)
a CS pseudo-random number which is ineffective.
The XSL stylesheet used by the web interface does not currently include
any element which would cause a list of zones configured in each view to
be displayed, making the "Zones" section of the web interface empty
unless some zone has been configured with "zone-statistics full;" and
queried. Since this can be confusing, modify the XSL stylesheet so that
a list of zones configured in each view is displayed in the web
interface.
XXXX. [func] Replace old message digest and hmac APIs with more
generic isc_md and isc_hmac APIs, and convert their
respective tests to cmocka. [GL #305]
XXXX. [func] A default list of primary servers for the root zone is
now built into named, allowing the "masters" statement
to be omitted when configuring an IANA root zone
mirror. [GL #564]
XXXX. [func] Attempts to use mirror zones with recursion disabled
are now considered a configuration error. [GL #564]
XXXX. [func] The only valid zone-level NOTIFY settings for mirror
zones are now "notify no;" and "notify explicit;".
[GL #564]
XXXX. [func] Mirror zones are now configured using "type mirror;"
rather than "mirror yes;". [GL #564]
To minimize the effort required to set up IANA root zone mirroring,
define a default master server list for the root zone and use it when
that zone is to be mirrored and no master server list was explicitly
specified. Contents of that list are taken from RFC 7706 and are
subject to change in future releases.
Since the static get_masters_def() function in bin/named/config.c does
exactly what named_zone_configure() in bin/named/zoneconf.c needs to do,
make the former non-static and use it in the latter to prevent code
duplication.
Since mirror zone data is treated as cache data for access control
purposes, configuring a mirror zone and disabling recursion at the same
time would effectively prevent mirror zone data from being used since
disabling recursion also disables cache access to all clients by
default. Even though this behavior can be inhibited by configuration,
mirror zones are a recursive resolver feature and thus recursion is now
required to use them.
Ignore the fact that certain configurations might still trick named into
assuming recursion is enabled when it effectively is not since this
change is not meant to put a hard policy in place but rather just to
prevent accidental mirror zone misuse.
Previous way of handling NOTIFY settings for mirror zones was a bit
tricky: any value of the "notify" option was accepted, but it was
subsequently overridden with dns_notifytype_explicit. Given the way
zone configuration is performed, this resulted in the following
behavior:
- if "notify yes;" was set explicitly at any configuration level or
inherited from default configuration, it was silently changed and so
only hosts specified in "also-notify", if any, were notified,
- if "notify no;" was set at any configuration level, it was
effectively honored since even though zone->notifytype was silently
set to dns_notifytype_explicit, the "also-notify" option was never
processed due to "notify no;" being set.
Effectively, this only allowed the hosts specified in "also-notify" to
be notified, when either "notify yes;" or "notify explicit;" was
explicitly set or inherited from default configuration.
Clean up handling of NOTIFY settings for mirror zones by:
- reporting a configuration error when anything else than "notify no;"
or "notify explicit;" is set for a mirror zone at the zone level,
- overriding inherited "notify yes;" setting with "notify explicit;"
for mirror zones,
- informing the user when the "notify" setting is overridden, unless
the setting in question was inherited from default configuration.
Use a zone's 'type' field instead of the value of its DNS_ZONEOPT_MIRROR
option for checking whether it is a mirror zone. This makes said zone
option and its associated helper function, dns_zone_mirror(), redundant,
so remove them. Remove a check specific to mirror zones from
named_zone_reusable() since another check in that function ensures that
changing a zone's type prevents it from being reused during
reconfiguration.
