Release Notes for BIND Version 9.10.2

Introduction

This document summarizes changes since the last production release of BIND on the corresponding major release branch.

Download

The latest versions of BIND 9 software can always be found at http://www.isc.org/downloads/. There you will find additional information about each release, source code, and pre-compiled versions for Microsoft Windows operating systems.

Security Fixes

  • None

New Features

  • None

  • An --enable-querytrace configure switch is now available to enable very verbose query tracelogging. This option can only be set at compile time. This option has a negative performance impact and should be used only for debugging.

Feature Changes

  • None

  • Large inline-signing changes should be less disruptive. Signature generation is now done incrementally; the number of signatures to be generated in each quantum is controlled by "sig-signing-signatures number;". [RT #37927]

  • When retrying a query via TCP due to the first answer being truncated, dig will now correctly send the SIT (server identity token) value returned by the server in the prior response. [RT #39047]

Bug Fixes

  • Asynchronous zone loads were not handled correctly when the zone load was already in progress; this could trigger a crash in zt.c. [RT #37573]

End of Life

The end of life for BIND 9.10 is yet to be determined but will not be before BIND 9.12.0 has been released for 6 months. https://www.isc.org/downloads/software-support-policy/
