The 'query_usestale()' function was only called when in
'query_gotanswer()' and an unexpected error occurred. This may have
been "quota reached", and thus we were in some cases returning
stale data on fetch-limits (and if serve-stale enabled of course).
But we can also hit fetch-limits when recursing because we are
following a referral (in 'query_notfound()' and
'query_delegation_recurse()'). Here we should also check for using
stale data in case an error occurred.
Specifically don't check for using stale data when refetching a
zero TTL RRset from cache.
Move the setting of DNS_DBFIND_STALESTART into the 'query_usestale()'
function to avoid code duplication.
Three small cleanups:
1. Remove an unused keystr/dst_key_format.
2. Initialize a dst_key_state_t state with NA.
3. Update false comment about local policy (local policy only adds
barrier on transitions to the RUMOURED state, not the UNRETENTIVE
state).
There was a bug in function 'keymgr_ds_hidden_or_chained()'.
The funcion 'keymgr_ds_hidden_or_chained()' implements (3e) of rule2
as defined in the "Flexible and Robust Key Rollover" paper. The rules
says: All DS records need to be in the HIDDEN state, or if it is not
there must be a key with its DNSKEY and KRRSIG in OMNIPRESENT, and
its DS in the same state as the key in question. In human langauge,
if all keys have their DS in HIDDEN state you can do what you want,
but if a DS record is available to some validators, there must be
a chain of trust for it.
Note that the barriers on transitions first check if the current
state is valid, and then if the next state is valid too. But
here we falsely updated the 'dnskey_omnipresent' (now 'dnskey_chained')
with the next state. The next state applies to 'key' not to the state
to be checked. Updating the state here leads to (true) always, because
the key that will move its state will match the falsely updated
expected state. This could lead to the assumption that Key 2 would be
a valid chain of trust for Key 1, while clearly the presence of any
DS is uncertain.
The fix here is to check if the DNSKEY and KRRSIG are in OMNIPRESENT
state for the key that does not have its DS in the HIDDEN state, and
only if that is not the case, ensure that there is a key with the same
algorithm, that provides a valid chain of trust, that is, has its
DNSKEY, KRRSIG, and DS in OMNIPRESENT state.
The changes in 'keymgr_dnskey_hidden_or_chained()' are only cosmetical,
renaming 'rrsig_omnipresent' to 'rrsig_chained' and removing the
redundant initialization of the DST_KEY_DNSKEY expected state to NA.
The previous commit changed the function definition of
'keymgr_key_is_successor()', this commit updates the code where
this function is called.
In 'keymgr_key_exists_with_state()' the logic is also updated slightly
to become more readable. First handle the easy cases:
- If the key does not match the state, continue with the next key.
- If we found a key with matching state, and there is no need to
check the successor relationship, return (true).
- Otherwise check the successor relationship.
In 'keymgr_key_has_successor()' it is enough to check if a key has
a direct successor, so instead of calling 'keymgr_key_is_successor()',
we can just check 'keymgr_direct_dep()'.
In 'dns_keymgr_run()', we want to make sure that there is no
dependency on the keys before retiring excess keys, so replace
'keymgr_key_is_successor()' with 'keymgr_dep()'.
So far the key manager could only deal with two keys in a rollover,
because it used a simplified version of the successor relationship
equation from "Flexible and Robust Key Rollover" paper. The simplified
version assumes only two keys take part in the key rollover and it
for that it is enough to check the direct relationship between two
keys (is key x the direct predecessor of key z and is key z the direct
successor of key x?).
But when a third key (or more keys) comes into the equation, the key
manager would assume that one key (or more) is redundant and removed
it from the zone prematurely.
Fix by implementing Equation(2) correctly, where we check for
dependencies on keys:
z ->T x: Dep(x, T) = ∅ ∧
(x ∈ Dep(z, T) ∨
∃ y ∈ Dep(z, T)(y != z ∧ y ->T x ∧ DyKyRySy = DzKzRzSz))
This says: key z is a successor of key x if:
- key x depends on key z if z is a direct successor of x,
- or if there is another key y that depends on key z that has identical
key states as key z and key y is a successor of key x.
- Also, key x may not have any other keys depending on it.
This is still a simplified version of Equation(2) (but at least much
better), because the paper allows for a set of keys to depend on a
key. This is defined as the set Dep(x, T). Keys in the set Dep(x, T)
have a dependency on key x for record type T. The BIND implementation
can only have one key in the set Dep(x, T). The function
'keymgr_dep()' stores this key in 'uint32_t *dep' if there is a
dependency.
There are two scenarios where multiple keys can depend on a single key:
1. Rolling keys is faster than the time required to finish the
rollover procedure. This scenario is covered by the recursive
implementation, and checking for a chain of direct dependencies
will suffice.
2. Changing the policy, when a zone is requested to be signed with
a different key length for example. BIND 9 will not mark successor
relationships in this case, but tries to move towards the new
policy. Since there is no successor relationship, the rules are
even more strict, and the DNSSEC reconfiguration is actually slower
than required.
Note: this commit breaks the build, because the function definition
of 'keymgr_key_is_successor' changed. This will be fixed in the
following commit.

removed the isc_cfg_http_t and isc_cfg_tls_t structures
and the functions that loaded and accessed them; this can
be done using normal config parser functions.
This commit contains fixes to unit tests to make them work well on
various platforms (in particular ones shipping old versions of
OpenSSL) and for different configurations.
It also updates the generated manpage to include DoH configuration
options.
This commit completes the support for DNS-over-HTTP(S) built on top of
nghttp2 and plugs it into the BIND. Support for both GET and POST
requests is present, as required by RFC8484.
Both encrypted (via TLS) and unencrypted HTTP/2 connections are
supported. The latter are mostly there for debugging/troubleshooting
purposes and for the means of encryption offloading to third-party
software (as might be desirable in some environments to simplify TLS
certificates management).
This commit includes work-in-progress implementation of
DNS-over-HTTP(S).
Server-side code remains mostly untested, and there is only support
for POST requests.
This commit adds stub parser support and tests for:
- an "http" global option for HTTP/2 endpoint configuration.
- command line options to set http or https port numbers by
specifying -p http=PORT or -p https=PORT. (NOTE: this change
only affects syntax; specifying HTTP and HTTPS ports on the
command line currently has no effect.)
- named.conf options "http-port" and "https-port"
- HTTPSPORT environment variable for use when running tests.
This commit resurrects the old TLS code from
8f73c70d23.
It also includes numerous stability fixes and support for
isc_nm_cancelread() for the TLS layer.
The code was resurrected to be used for DoH.
The 'key_init()' function is used to initialize a state file for keys
that don't have one yet. This can happen if you are migrating from a
'auto-dnssec' or 'inline-signing' to a 'dnssec-policy' configuration.
It did not look at the "Inactive" and "Delete" timing metadata and so
old keys left behind in the key directory would also be considered as
a possible active key. This commit fixes this and now explicitly sets
the key goal to OMNIPRESENT for keys that have their "Active/Publish"
timing metadata in the past, but their "Inactive/Delete" timing
metadata in the future. If the "Inactive/Delete" timing metadata is
also in the past, the key goal is set to HIDDEN.
If the "Inactive/Delete" timing metadata is in the past, also the
key states are adjusted to either UNRETENTIVE or HIDDEN, depending on
how far in the past the metadata is set.
Add support for a "tls" key/value pair for zone primaries, referencing
either a "tls" configuration statement or "ephemeral". If set to use
TLS, zones will send SOA and AXFR/IXFR queries over a TLS channel.
This commit fix a race that could happen when two or more threads have
failed to refresh the same RRset, the threads could simultaneously
attempt to update the header->last_refresh_fail_ts field in
check_stale_header, a field used to implement stale-refresh-time.
By making this field atomic we avoid such race.
If we did not attempt a fetch due to fetch-limits, we should not start
the stale-refresh-time window.
Introduce a new flag DNS_DBFIND_STALESTART to differentiate between
a resolver failure and unexpected error. If we are resuming, this
indicates a resolver failure, then start the stale-refresh-time window,
otherwise don't start the stale-refresh-time window, but still fall
back to using stale data.
(This commit also wraps some docstrings to 80 characters width)
Before this change, BIND will only fallback to using stale data if
there was an actual attempt to resolve the query. Then on a timeout,
the stale data from cache becomes eligible.
This commit changes this so that on any unexpected error stale data
becomes eligble (you would still have to have 'stale-answer-enable'
enabled of course).
If there is no stale data, this may return in an error again, so don't
loop on stale data lookup attempts. If the DNS_DBFIND_STALEOK flag is
set, this means we already tried to lookup stale data, so if that is
the case, don't use stale again.
When 'opensslecdsa_parse()' encounters a label tag in the private key
file, load the private key with 'opensslecdsa_fromlabel()'. Otherwise
load it from the private structure.
This was attempted before with 'load_privkey()' and 'uses_engine()',
but had the same flaw as 'opensslecdsa_fromlabel()' had previously,
that is getting the private and public key separately, juggling with
pointers between EC_KEY and EVP_PKEY, did not create a valid
cryptographic key that could be used for signing.
The 'opensslecdsa_fromlabel()' function does not need to get the
OpenSSL engine twice to load the private and public key. Also no need
to call 'dst_key_to_eckey()' as the EC_KEY can be derived from the
loaded EVP_PKEY's.
Add some extra checks to ensure the key has the same base id and curve
(group nid) as the dst key.
Since we already have the EVP_PKEY, no need to call 'finalize_eckey()',
instead just set the right values in the key structure.
The 'ecdsa_check()' function tries to correctly set the public key
on the eckey, but this should be skipped if the public key is
retrieved via the private key.
The functions 'load_pubkey_from_engine()' and
'load_privkey_from_engine()' did not correctly store the pointers.
Update both functions to add 'EC_KEY_set_public_key()' and
'EC_KEY_set_private_key()' respectively, so that the pointers to
the public and private keys survive the "load from engine" functions.
The 'function load_pubkey_from_engine()' made a call to the libssl
function 'ENGINE_load_private_key'. This is a copy paste error and
should be 'ENGINE_load_public_key'.
First of all, there was a flaw in the code related to the
'stale-refresh-time' option. If stale answers are enabled, and we
returned stale data, then it was assumed that it was because we were
in the 'stale-refresh-time' window. But now we could also have returned
stale data because of a 'stale-answer-client-timeout'. To fix this,
introduce a rdataset attribute DNS_RDATASETATTR_STALE_WINDOW to
indicate whether the stale cache entry was returned because the
'stale-refresh-time' window is active.
Second, remove the special case handling when the result is
DNS_R_NCACHENXRRSET. This can be done more generic in the code block
when dealing with stale data.
Putting all stale case handling in the code block when dealing with
stale data makes the code more easy to follow.
Update documentation to be more verbose and to match then new code
flow.
Both functions employed the same code lines to allocate query context
buffers, which are used to store query results, so this shared portion
of code was extracted out to a new function, qctx_prepare_buffers.
Also, this commit uses qctx_init to initialize the query context whitin
query_refresh_rrset function.
This commit allows stale RRset to be used (if available) for responding
a query, before an attempt to refresh an expired, or otherwise resolve
an unavailable RRset in cache is made.
For that to work, a value of zero must be specified for
stale-answer-client-timeout statement.
To better understand the logic implemented, there are three flags being
used during database lookup and other parts of code that must be
understood:
. DNS_DBFIND_STALEOK: This flag is set when BIND fails to refresh a
RRset due to timeout (resolver-query-timeout), its intent is to
try to look for stale data in cache as a fallback, but only if
stale answers are enabled in configuration.
This flag is also used to activate stale-refresh-time window, since it
is the only way the database knows that a resolution has failed.
. DNS_DBFIND_STALEENABLED: This flag is used as a hint to the database
that it may use stale data. It is always set during query lookup if
stale answers are enabled, but only effectively used during
stale-refresh-time window. Also during this window, the resolver will
not try to resolve the query, in other words no attempt to refresh the
data in cache is made when the stale-refresh-time window is active.
. DNS_DBFIND_STALEONLY: This new introduced flag is used when we want
stale data from the database, but not due to a failure in resolution,
it also doesn't require stale-refresh-time window timer to be active.
As long as there is a stale RRset available, it should be returned.
It is mainly used in two situations:
1. When stale-answer-client-timeout timer is triggered: in that case
we want to know if there is stale data available to answer the
client.
2. When stale-answer-client-timeout value is set to zero: in that
case, we also want to know if there is some stale RRset available
to promptly answer the client.
We must also discern between three situations that may happen when
resolving a query after the addition of stale-answer-client-timeout
statement, and how to handle them:
1. Are we running query_lookup() due to stale-answer-client-timeout
timer being triggered?
In this case, we look for stale data, making use of
DNS_DBFIND_STALEONLY flag. If a stale RRset is available then
respond the client with the data found, mark this query as
answered (query attribute NS_QUERYATTR_ANSWERED), so when the
fetch completes the client won't be answered twice.
We must also take care of not detaching from the client, as a
fetch will still be running in background, this is handled by the
following snippet:
if (!QUERY_STALEONLY(&client->query)) {
isc_nmhandle_detach(&client->reqhandle);
}
Which basically tests if DNS_DBFIND_STALEONLY flag is set, which
means we are here due to a stale-answer-client-timeout timer
expiration.
2. Are we running query_lookup() due to resolver-query-timeout being
triggered?
In this case, DNS_DBFIND_STALEOK flag will be set and an attempt
to look for stale data will be made.
As already explained, this flag is algo used to activate
stale-refresh-time window, as it means that we failed to refresh
a RRset due to timeout.
It is ok in this situation to detach from the client, as the
fetch is already completed.
3. Are we running query_lookup() during the first time, looking for
a RRset in cache and stale-answer-client-timeout value is set to
zero?
In this case, if stale answers are enabled (probably), we must do
an initial database lookup with DNS_DBFIND_STALEONLY flag set, to
indicate to the database that we want stale data.
If we find an active RRset, proceed as normal, answer the client
and the query is done.
If we find a stale RRset we respond to the client and mark the
query as answered, but don't detach from the client yet as an
attempt in refreshing the RRset will still be made by means of
the new introduced function 'query_resolve'.
If no active or stale RRset is available, begin resolution as
usual.
This commit allows to specify "disabled" or "off" in
stale-answer-client-timeout statement. The logic to support this
behavior will be added in the subsequent commits.
This commit also ensures an upper bound to stale-answer-client-timeout
which equals to one second less than 'resolver-query-timeout'.
The general logic behind the addition of this new feature works as
folows:
When a client query arrives, the basic path (query.c / ns_query_recurse)
was to create a fetch, waiting for completion in fetch_callback.
With the introduction of stale-answer-client-timeout, a new event of
type DNS_EVENT_TRYSTALE may invoke fetch_callback, whenever stale
answers are enabled and the fetch took longer than
stale-answer-client-timeout to complete.
When an event of type DNS_EVENT_TRYSTALE triggers fetch_callback, we
must ensure that the folowing happens:
1. Setup a new query context with the sole purpose of looking up for
stale RRset only data, for that matters a new flag was added
'DNS_DBFIND_STALEONLY' used in database lookups.
. If a stale RRset is found, mark the original client query as
answered (with a new query attribute named NS_QUERYATTR_ANSWERED),
so when the fetch completion event is received later, we avoid
answering the client twice.
. If a stale RRset is not found, cleanup and wait for the normal
fetch completion event.
2. In ns_query_done, we must change this part:
/*
* If we're recursing then just return; the query will
* resume when recursion ends.
*/
if (RECURSING(qctx->client)) {
return (qctx->result);
}
To this:
if (RECURSING(qctx->client) && !QUERY_STALEONLY(qctx->client)) {
return (qctx->result);
}
Otherwise we would not proceed to answer the client if it happened
that a stale answer was found when looking up for stale only data.
When an event of type DNS_EVENT_FETCHDONE triggers fetch_callback, we
proceed as before, resuming query, updating stats, etc, but a few
exceptions had to be added, most important of which are two:
1. Before answering the client (ns_client_send), check if the query
wasn't already answered before.
2. Before detaching a client, e.g.
isc_nmhandle_detach(&client->reqhandle), ensure that this is the
fetch completion event, and not the one triggered due to
stale-answer-client-timeout, so a correct call would be:
if (!QUERY_STALEONLY(client)) {
isc_nmhandle_detach(&client->reqhandle);
}
Other than these notes, comments were added in code in attempt to make
these updates easier to follow.
This is a minor performance improvement, we store the result of the
first call to strlcat to use as an offset in the next call when
constructing fctx->info string.
The BIND 9 libraries are considered to be internal only and hence the
API and ABI changes a lot. Keeping track of the API/ABI changes takes
time and it's a complicated matter as the safest way to make everything
stable would be to bump any library in the dependency chain as in theory
if libns links with libdns, and a binary links with both, and we bump
the libdns SOVERSION, but not the libns SOVERSION, the old libns might
be loaded by binary pulling old libdns together with new libdns loaded
by the binary. The situation gets even more complicated with loading
the plugins that have been compiled with few versions old BIND 9
libraries and then dynamically loaded into the named.
We are picking the safest option possible and usable for internal
libraries - instead of using -version-info that has only a weak link to
BIND 9 version number, we are using -release libtool option that will
embed the corresponding BIND 9 version number into the library name.
That means that instead of libisc.so.1701 (as an example) the library
will now be named libisc-9.17.10.so.
* Following the example set in 634bdfb16d, the tlsdns netmgr
module now uses libuv and SSL primitives directly, rather than
opening a TLS socket which opens a TCP socket, as the previous
model was difficult to debug. Closes#2335.
* Remove the netmgr tls layer (we will have to re-add it for DoH)
* Add isc_tls API to wrap the OpenSSL SSL_CTX object into libisc
library; move the OpenSSL initialization/deinitialization from dstapi
needed for OpenSSL 1.0.x to the isc_tls_{initialize,destroy}()
* Add couple of new shims needed for OpenSSL 1.0.x
* When LibreSSL is used, require at least version 2.7.0 that
has the best OpenSSL 1.1.x compatibility and auto init/deinit
* Enforce OpenSSL 1.1.x usage on Windows
* Added a TLSDNS unit test and implemented a simple TLSDNS echo
server and client.
The 'filter-aaaa', 'filter-aaaa-on-v4', and 'filter-aaaa-on-v6' options
are replaced by the filter-aaaa plugin. This plugin was introduced in
9.13.5 and so it is safe to remove the named.conf options.
These options were ancient or made obsolete a long time ago, it is
safe to remove them.
Also stop printing ancient options, they should be treated the same as
unknown options.
Removed options: lwres, geoip-use-ecs, sit-secret, use-ixfr,
acache-cleaning-interval, acache-enable, additional-from-auth,
additional-from-cache, allow-v6-synthesis, dnssec-enable,
max-acache-size, nosit-udp-size, queryport-pool-ports,
queryport-pool-updateinterval, request-sit, use-queryport-pool, and
support-ixfr.
