As part of resquery_response() refactoring [1], a goto statement was
replaced [2] with a call to a new function - originally called
rctx_delegation(), now folded into rctx_answer_none() - extracted from
existing code. However, one call site of that refactored function does
not reset the "result" variable, causing a referral with a non-empty
ANSWER section to be inadvertently treated as an error, which prevents
resolution of names reliant on servers sending such responses. Fix by
resetting the "result" variable to ISC_R_SUCCESS when a response
containing a non-empty ANSWER section can be treated as a delegation.

- make qname-minimization option tristate {strict,relaxed,disabled}
- go straight for the record if we hit NXDOMAIN in relaxed mode
- go straight for the record after 3 labels without new delegation or 7 labels total
- use start of fetch (and not time of response) as 'now' time for querying cache for
zonecut when following delegation.
This commit reverts the previous change to use system provided
entropy, as (SYS_)getrandom is very slow on Linux because it is
a syscall.
The change introduced in this commit adds a new call isc_nonce_buf
that uses CSPRNG from cryptographic library provider to generate
secure data that can be and must be used for generating nonces.
Example usage would be DNS cookies.
The isc_random() API has been changed to use fast PRNG that is not
cryptographically secure, but runs entirely in user space. Two
contestants have been considered xoroshiro family of the functions
by Villa&Blackman and PCG by O'Neill. After a consideration the
xoshiro128starstar function has been used as uint32_t random number
provider because it is very fast and has good enough properties
for our usage pattern.
The other change introduced in the commit is the more extensive usage
of isc_random_uniform in places where the usage pattern was
isc_random() % n to prevent modulo bias. For usage patterns where
only 16 or 8 bits are needed (DNS Message ID), the isc_random()
functions has been renamed to isc_random32(), and isc_random16() and
isc_random8() functions have been introduced by &-ing the
isc_random32() output with 0xffff and 0xff. Please note that the
functions that uses stripped down bit count doesn't pass our
NIST SP 800-22 based random test.
- mark the 'geoip-use-ecs' option obsolete; warn when it is used
in named.conf
- prohibit 'ecs' ACL tags in named.conf; note that this is a fatal error
since simply ignoring the tags could make ACLs behave unpredictably
- re-simplify the radix and iptable code
- clean up dns_acl_match(), dns_aclelement_match(), dns_acl_allowed()
and dns_geoip_match() so they no longer take ecs options
- remove the ECS-specific unit and system test cases
- remove references to ECS from the ARM
The three functions has been modeled after the arc4random family of
functions, and they will always return random bytes.
The isc_random family of functions internally use these CSPRNG (if available):
1. getrandom() libc call (might be available on Linux and Solaris)
2. SYS_getrandom syscall (might be available on Linux, detected at runtime)
3. arc4random(), arc4random_buf() and arc4random_uniform() (available on BSDs and Mac OS X)
4. crypto library function:
4a. RAND_bytes in case OpenSSL
4b. pkcs_C_GenerateRandom() in case PKCS#11 library
Replace dns_fixedname_init() calls followed by dns_fixedname_name()
calls with calls to dns_fixedname_initname() where it is possible
without affecting current behavior and/or performance.
This patch was mostly prepared using Coccinelle and the following
semantic patch:
@@
expression fixedname, name;
@@
- dns_fixedname_init(&fixedname);
...
- name = dns_fixedname_name(&fixedname);
+ name = dns_fixedname_initname(&fixedname);
The resulting set of changes was then manually reviewed to exclude false
positives and apply minor tweaks.
It is likely that more occurrences of this pattern can be refactored in
an identical way. This commit only takes care of the low-hanging fruit.
4859. [bug] A loop was possible when attempting to validate
unsigned CNAME responses from secure zones;
this caused a delay in returning SERVFAIL and
also increased the chances of encountering
CVE-2017-3145. [RT #46839]
4858. [security] Addresses could be referenced after being freed
in resolver.c, causing an assertion failure.
(CVE-2017-3145) [RT #46839]
4798. [func] Keys specified in "managed-keys" statements
are tagged as "initializing" until they have been
updated by a key refresh query. If initialization
fails it will be visible from "rndc secroots".
