This limits the maximum number of received incremental zone
transfer differences for a secondary server. Upon reaching the
confgiured limit, the secondary aborts IXFR and initiates a full
zone transfer (AXFR).
Remove the complicated mechanism that could be (in theory) used by
external libraries to register new categories and modules with
statically defined lists in <isc/log.h>. This is similar to what we
have done for <isc/result.h> result codes. All the libraries are now
internal to BIND 9, so we don't need to provide a mechanism to register
extra categories and modules.
implement, document, and test the 'max-query-restarts' option
which specifies the query restart limit - the number of times
we can follow CNAMEs before terminating resolution.
The OpenSSL 1.x Engines support has been deprecated in the OpenSSL 3.x
and is going to be removed. Remove the OpenSSL Engine support in favor
of OpenSSL Providers.
In order to protect from a malicious DNS client that sends many
queries with a SIG(0)-signed message, add a quota of simultaneously
running SIG(0) checks.
This protection can only help when named is using more than one worker
threads. For example, if named is running with the '-n 4' option, and
'sig0checks-quota 2;' is used, then named will make sure to not use
more than 2 workers for the SIG(0) signature checks in parallel, thus
leaving the other workers to serve the remaining clients which do not
use SIG(0)-signed messages.
That limitation is going to change when SIG(0) signature checks are
offloaded to "slow" threads in a future commit.
The 'sig0checks-quota-exempt' ACL option can be used to exempt certain
clients from the quota requirements using their IP or network addresses.
The 'sig0checks-quota-maxwait-ms' option is used to define a maximum
amount of time for named to wait for a quota to appear. If during that
time no new quota becomes available, named will answer to the client
with DNS_R_REFUSED.
by default, QPDB is the database used by named and all tools and
unit tests. the old default of RBTDB can now be restored by using
"configure --with-zonedb=rbt --with-cachedb=rbt".
some tests have been fixed so they will work correctly with either
database.
CHANGES and release notes have been updated to reflect this change.
replace the string "rbt" throughout BIND with "qp" so that
qpdb databases will be used by default instead of rbtdb.
rbtdb databases can still be used by specifying "database rbt;"
in a zone statement.
Using the 'dnssec-validation yes' option now requires an explicitly
confgiured 'trust-anchors' statement (or 'managed-keys' or
'trusted-keys', both deprecated).
the 'low', 'high' and 'discount' parameters to 'fetch-quota-param'
are meant to be ratios with values between zero and one, but higher
values can be assigned. this could potentially lead to an assertion
in maybe_adjust_quota().
This is now the default way to implement attaching to/detaching from
a pointer.
Also update cfg_keystore_fromconfig() to allow NULL value for the
keystore pointer. In most cases we detach it immediately after the
function call.
Add a default key-directory parameter to the function that can
be returned if there is no keystore, or if the keystore directory
is NULL (the latter is also true for the built-in keystore).
If there is a keystore configured with a PKCS#11 URI, zones that
are using a dnssec-policy that uses such a keystore should create keys
via the PKCS#11 interface. Those keys are generally stored inside an
HSM.
Some changes to the code are required, to store the engine reference
into the keystore.
When creating the kasp structure, instead of storing the name of the
key store on keys, store a reference to the key store object instead.
This requires to build the keystore list prior to creating the kasp
structures, in the dnssec tools, the check code and the server code.
We will create a builtin keystore called "key-directory" which means
use the zone's key-directory as the key store.
The check code changes, because now the keystore is looked up before
creating the kasp structure (and if the keystore is not found, this
is an error). Instead of looking up the keystore after all
'dnssec-policy' clauses have been read.
Similar to key-directory, check for zones in different views and
different key and signing policies. Zones must be using different key
directories to store key files on disk.
Now that a key directory can be linked with a dnssec-policy key, the
'keydirexist' checking needs to be reshuffled.
Add tests for bad configuration examples, named-checkconf should catch
those. Also add test cases for a mix of key-directory and key-store
directory.
Similar to key-directory, check if the key-store directory exists and
if it is an actual directory.
This commit fixes an accidental test bug in checkconf where if
the "warn key-dir" test failed, the result was ignored.
Add checkconf check to ensure that the used key-store in the keys
section exists. Error if that is not the case. We also don't allow
the special keyword 'key-directory' as that is internally used to
signal that the zone's key-directory should be used.
The main intention of PROXY protocol is to pass endpoints information
to a back-end server (in our case - BIND). That means that it is a
valid way to spoof endpoints information, as the addresses and ports
extracted from PROXYv2 headers, from the point of view of BIND, are
used instead of the real connection addresses.
Of course, an ability to easily spoof endpoints information can be
considered a security issue when used uncontrollably. To resolve that,
we introduce 'allow-proxy' and 'allow-proxy-on' ACL options. These are
the only ACL options in BIND that work with real PROXY connections
addresses, allowing a DNS server operator to specify from what clients
and on which interfaces he or she is willing to accept PROXY
headers. By default, for security reasons we do not allow to accept
them.
This commit extends "listen-on" statement with "proxy" options that
allows one to enable PROXYv2 support on a dedicated listener. It can
have the following values:
- "plain" to send PROXYv2 headers without encryption, even in the case
of encrypted transports.
- "encrypted" to send PROXYv2 headers encrypted right after the TLS
handshake.
The AES algorithm for DNS cookies was being kept for legacy reasons, and
it can be safely removed in the next major release. Remove both the AES
usage for DNS cookies and the AES implementation itself.
The AES algorithm for DNS cookies was being kept for legacy reasons,
and it can be safely removed in the next major release. Mark is as
deprecated, so the `named-checkconf` prints a warning when in use.
The Unix Domain Sockets support in BIND 9 has been completely disabled
since BIND 9.18 and it has been a fatal error since then. Cleanup the
code and the documentation that suggest that Unix Domain Sockets are
supported.
When using automated DNSSEC management, it is required that the zone
is dynamic, or that inline-signing is enabled (or both). Update the
checkconf code to also allow inline-signing to be enabled within
dnssec-policy.
These two configuration options worked in conjunction with 'auto-dnssec'
to determine KSK usage, and thus are now obsoleted.
However, in the code we keep KSK processing so that when a zone is
reconfigured from using 'dnssec-policy' immediately to 'none' (without
going through 'insecure'), the zone is not immediately made bogus.
Add one more test case for going straight to none, now with a dynamic
zone (no inline-signing).
There are times where you want named-checkconf to check whether the
dnssec-policies should be constrained by the cryptographic algorithms
supported by the operation system or to just accept all possible
algorithms. This provides a mechanism to make that selection.
These options and zone type were created to address the
SiteFinder controversy, in which certain TLD's redirected queries
rather than returning NXDOMAIN. since TLD's are now DNSSEC-signed,
this is no longer likely to be a problem.
The deprecation message for 'type delegation-only' is issued from
the configuration checker rather than the parser. therefore,
isccfg_check_namedconf() has been modified to take a 'nodeprecate'
parameter to suppress the warning when named-checkconf is used with
the command-line option to ignore warnings on deprecated options (-i).
which can be a size or the string 'unlimited' but not the string
'default'. This is used for max-cache-size and max-journal-size,
and obsoletes the special check for 'default' in check.c.
