Changes introduced by the previous two commits make the parts of
query_delegation() and query_zone_delegation() which prepare a
delegation response functionally equivalent. Extract this code into a
separate function, query_prepare_delegation_response(), and then call
the latter from both query_delegation() and query_zone_delegation() in
order to reduce code duplication. Add a comment describing the purpose
of the extracted code. Fix coding style issues.
When query processing hits a delegation from a locally configured zone,
an attempt may be made to look for a better answer in the cache. In
such a case, the zone-sourced delegation data is set aside and the
lookup is retried using the cache database. When that lookup is
completed, a decision is made whether the answer found in the cache is
better than the answer found in the zone.
Currently, if the zone-sourced answer turns out to be better than the
one found in the cache:
- qctx->zdb is not restored into qctx->db,
- qctx->node, holding the zone database node found, is not even saved.
Thus, in such a case both qctx->db and qctx->node will point at cache
data. This is not an issue for BIND versions which do not support
mirror zones because in these versions non-recursive queries always
cause the zone-sourced delegation to be returned and thus the
non-recursive part of query_delegation() is never reached if the
delegation is coming from a zone. With mirror zones, however,
non-recursive queries may cause cache lookups even after a zone
delegation is found. Leaving qctx->db assigned to the cache database
when query_delegation() determines that the zone-sourced delegation is
the best answer to the client's query prevents DS records from being
added to delegations coming from mirror zones. Fix this issue by
keeping the zone database and zone node in qctx while the cache is
searched for an answer and then restoring them into qctx->db and
qctx->node, respectively, if the zone-sourced delegation turns out to be
the best answer. Since this change means that qctx->zdb cannot be used
as the glue database any more as it will be reset to NULL by RESTORE(),
ensure that qctx->db is not a cache database before attaching it to
qctx->client->query.gluedb.
Furthermore, current code contains a conditional statement which
prevents a mirror zone from being used as a source of glue records.
Said statement was added to prevent assertion failures caused by
attempting to use a zone database's glue cache for finding glue for an
NS RRset coming from a cache database. However, that check is overly
strict since it completely prevents glue from being added to delegations
coming from mirror zones. With the changes described above in place,
the scenario this check was preventing can no longer happen, so remove
the aforementioned check.
If qctx->zdb is not NULL, qctx->zfname will also not be NULL;
qctx->zsigrdataset may be NULL in such a case, but query_putrdataset()
handles pointers to NULL pointers gracefully. Remove redundant
conditional expressions to make the cleanup code in query_freedata()
match the corresponding sequences of SAVE() / RESTORE() macros more
closely.
As mirror zone data should be treated the way validated, cached DNS
responses are, it should not be used when responding to clients who are
not allowed cache access. Reuse code responsible for determining cache
database access for evaluating mirror zone access.
Modify query_checkcacheaccess() so that it only contains a single return
statement rather than three and so that the "check_acl" variable is no
longer needed. Tweak and expand comments. Fix coding style issues.
Modify query_getcachedb() so that it uses a common return path for both
success and failure. Remove a redundant NULL check since 'db' will
never be NULL after being passed as a target pointer to dns_db_attach().
Fix coding style issues.
Extract the parts of query_getcachedb() responsible for checking whether
the client is allowed to access the cache to a separate function, so
that it can be reused for determining mirror zone access.
If transferring or loading a mirror zone fails, resolution should still
succeed by means of falling back to regular recursive queries.
Currently, though, if a slave zone is present in the zone table and not
loaded, a SERVFAIL response is generated. Thus, mirror zones need
special handling in this regard.
Add a new dns_zt_find() flag, DNS_ZTFIND_MIRROR, and set it every time a
domain name is looked up rather than a zone itself. Handle that flag in
dns_zt_find() in such a way that a mirror zone which is expired or not
yet loaded is ignored when looking up domain names, but still possible
to find when the caller wants to know whether the zone is configured.
This causes a fallback to recursion when mirror zone data is unavailable
without making unloaded mirror zones invisible to code checking a zone's
existence.
Section 4 of RFC 7706 suggests that responses sourced from a local copy
of a zone should not have the AA bit set. Follow that recommendation by
setting 'qctx->authoritative' to ISC_FALSE when a response to a query is
coming from a mirror zone.
When a resolver is a regular slave (i.e. not a mirror) for some zone,
non-recursive queries for names below that slaved zone will return a
delegation sourced from it. This behavior is suboptimal for mirror
zones as their contents should rather be treated as validated, cached
DNS responses. Modify query_delegation() and query_zone_delegation() to
permit clients allowed cache access to check its contents for a better
answer when responding to non-recursive queries.
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
- Replace external -DOPENSSL/-DPKCS11CRYPTO with properly AC_DEFINEd
HAVE_OPENSSL/HAVE_PKCS11
- Don't enforce the crypto provider from platform.h, just from dst_api.c
and configure scripts
- tidy up release notes, removing the existing "security fixes" and
"bug fixes" sections
- add a section in the release notes to discuss the new version
numbering
- update version, CHANGES, api, and mapapi files
Interrupt query processing when query_recurse() attempts to ask the same
name servers for the same QNAME/QTYPE tuple for two times in a row as
this indicates that query processing may be stuck for an indeterminate
period of time, e.g. due to interactions between features able to
restart query_lookup().
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
