|
License Change
|
|
|
|
With the release of BIND 9.11.0, ISC changed to the open source license
|
|
for BIND from the ISC license to the Mozilla Public License (MPL 2.0).
|
|
|
|
The MPL-2.0 license requires that if you make changes to licensed software
|
|
(e.g. BIND) and distribute them outside your organization, that you
|
|
publish those changes under that same license. It does not require that
|
|
you publish or disclose anything other than the changes you made to our
|
|
software.
|
|
|
|
This requirement will not affect anyone who is using BIND, with or without
|
|
modifications, without redistributing it, nor anyone redistributing it
|
|
without changes. Therefore, this change will be without consequence for
|
|
most individuals and organizations who are using BIND.
|
|
|
|
Those unsure whether or not the license change affects their use of BIND,
|
|
or who wish to discuss how to comply with the license may contact ISC at
|
|
https://www.isc.org/mission/contact/.

Security Fixes
|
|
|
|
* A race condition could trigger an assertion failure when a large
|
|
number of incoming packets were being rejected. This flaw is disclosed
|
|
in CVE-2019-6471. [GL #942]
|
|
|
|
End of Life
|
|
|
|
BIND 9.11 (Extended Support Version) will be supported until at least
|
|
December, 2021. See https://www.isc.org/downloads/software-support-policy/
|
|
for details of ISC's software support policy.
