Removed Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- None.
Feature Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Implement ``draft-vandijk-dnsop-nsec-ttl``, NSEC(3) TTL values are now set to
the minimum of the SOA MINIMUM value and the SOA TTL. :gl:`#2347`
- Reduce the supported maximum number of iterations that can be
configured in an NSEC3 zones to 150. :gl:`#2642`
- Treat DNSSEC responses with NSEC3 iterations greater than 150 as insecure.
:gl:`#2445`
- Zones that want to transition from secure to insecure mode without making it
bogus in the process should now first change their ``dnssec-policy`` to
``insecure`` (as opposed to ``none``). Only after the DNSSEC records have
been removed from the zone (in a timely manner), the ``dnssec-policy`` can
be set to ``none`` (or be removed from the configuration). Setting the
``dnssec-policy`` to ``insecure`` will cause CDS and CDNSKEY DELETE records
to be published. :gl:`#2645`
- Change the ``max-ixfr-ratio`` configuration option default value to
``unlimited`` for better backwards compatibility in the stable release
series. :gl:`#2671`
Bug Fixes
~~~~~~~~~
- Fix a race condition in reading and writing key files for KASP zones in
multiple views. :gl:`#1875`
- When dumping the cache to file, TTLs were being increased with
``max-stale-ttl``. Also the comment above stale RRsets could have nonsensical
values if the RRset was still marked a stale but the ``max-stale-ttl`` has
passed (and is actually an RRset awaiting cleanup). Both issues have now
been fixed. :gl:`#389` :gl:`#2289`
- ``named`` would overwrite a zone file unconditionally when it recovered from
a corrupted journal. :gl:`#2623`
- With ``dnssec-policy``, when creating new keys also check for keyid conflicts
between the new keys too. :gl:`#2628`
- Update ZONEMD to match RFC 8976. :gl:`#2658`
- With ``dnssec-policy```, don't roll keys if the private key file is offline.
:gl:`#2596`
- Journal compaction could fail when a journal with invalid transaction
headers was not detected at startup. :gl:`#2670`
- ``named-checkconf`` now complains if zones with ``dnssec-policy`` reference
the same zone file more than once. :gl:`#2603`
- After the networking manager was introduced to ``named`` to handle
incoming traffic, it was discovered that the recursive performance had been
degraded compared to the previous version (9.11). This has been now fixed by
running internal tasks inside the networking manager worker threads, so
they do not compete for resources. :gl:`#2638`
- Check ``key-directory`` conflicts in ``named.conf`` for zones in multiple
views with different ``dnssec-policy``. Using the same ``key-directory`` for
such zones is not allowed. :gl:`#2463`
