Notes for BIND 9.17.7
---------------------
New Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Support for DNS over TLS (DoT) has been added: the ``dig`` tool is now
able to send DoT queries (``+tls`` option) and ``named`` can handle
DoT queries (``listen-on tls ...`` option). ``named`` can use either a
certificate provided by the user or an ephemeral certificate generated
automatically upon startup. [GL #1840]
- A new configuration option, ``stale-refresh-time``, has been
introduced. It allows a stale RRset to be served directly from cache
for a period of time after a failed lookup, before a new attempt to
refresh it is made. [GL #2066]
Feature Changes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- The ``dig``, ``host``, and ``nslookup`` tools have been converted to
use the new network manager API rather than the older ISC socket API.
As a side effect of this change, the ``dig +unexpected`` option no
longer works. This could previously be used to diagnose broken servers
or network configurations by listening for replies from servers other
than the one that was queried. With the new API, such answers are
filtered before they ever reach ``dig``, so the option has been
removed. [GL #2140]
- The network manager API is now used by ``named`` to send zone transfer
requests. [GL #2016]
Bug Fixes
~~~~~~~~~
- ``named`` could crash with an assertion failure if a TCP connection
were closed while a request was still being processed. [GL #2227]
- ``named`` acting as a resolver could incorrectly treat signed zones
with no DS record at the parent as bogus. Such zones should be treated
as insecure. This has been fixed. [GL #2236]
- After a Negative Trust Anchor (NTA) is added, BIND performs periodic
checks to see if it is still necessary. If BIND encountered a failure
while creating a query to perform such a check, it attempted to
dereference a ``NULL`` pointer, resulting in a crash. [GL #2244]
- A problem obtaining glue records could prevent a stub zone from
functioning properly, if the authoritative server for the zone were
configured for minimal responses. [GL #1736]
- ``UV_EOF`` is no longer treated as a ``TCP4RecvErr`` or a
``TCP6RecvErr``. [GL #2208]

Notes for BIND 9.17.6
---------------------
Security Fixes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- None.
Known Issues
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- None.
New Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~
- A new configuration option ``stale-refresh-time`` has been introduced, it
allows stale RRset to be served directly from cache for a period of time
after a failed lookup, before a new attempt to refresh it is made. [GL #2066]
- ``dig`` can now report the DNS64 prefixes in use (``+dns64prefix``).
This is useful when the host on which ``dig`` is run is behind an
IPv6-only link, using DNS64/NAT64 or 464XLAT for IPv4aaS (IPv4 as a
Service). [GL #1154]
Removed Features
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- None.

the support for DoT has been added to the ``dig`` tool and support for
listening on TLS port has been added to ``named``. ``named`` could use a
certificate provided by the user or it can generate an ephemeral certificate
on startup of the daemon.
- Add NSEC3 support for zones that manage their DNSSEC with the `dnssec-policy`
configuration. A new option 'nsec3param' can be used to set the desired
NSEC3 parameters, and will detect collisions when resalting. [GL #1620].
Bug Fixes
~~~~~~~~~
- Handle `UV_EOF` differently such that it is not treated as a `TCP4RecvErr` or
`TCP6RecvErr`. [GL #2208]
- ``named`` could crash with an assertion failure if a TCP connection is closed
while the request is still processing. [GL #2227]
- The synthesised CNAME from a DNAME was incorrectly followed when the QTYPE
was CNAME or ANY. [GL #2280]
