dns_rdata_opt_current, dns_rdata_txt_first,
dns_rdata_txt_next and dns_rdata_txt_current were
documented but not implemented. These have now been
implemented.
dns_rdata_spf_first, dns_rdata_spf_next and
dns_rdata_spf_current were document but not
implemented. The prototypes for these
functions have been removed. [RT #38068]
4023. [bug] win32: socket handling with explict ports and
invoking named with -4 was broken for some
configurations. [RT #38068]
4006. [security] A flaw in delegation handling could be exploited
to put named into an infinite loop. This has
been addressed by placing limits on the number
of levels of recursion named will allow (default 7),
and the number of iterative queries that it will
send (default 50) before terminating a recursive
query (CVE-2014-8500).
The recursion depth limit is configured via the
"max-recursion-depth" option. [RT #35780]
EDNS(1) queries (define DRAFT_ANDREWS_EDNS1 when
building). Add support for limiting the EDNS version
advertised to servers: server { edns-version 0; };
Log the EDNS version received in the query log.
[RT #35864]
3943. [func] SERVFAIL responses can now be cached for a
limited time (configured by "servfail-ttl",
default 10 seconds, limit 30). This can reduce
the frequency of retries when an authoritative
server is known to be failing, e.g., due to
ongoing DNSSEC validation problems. [RT #21347]
3882. [func] By default, negative trust anchors will be tested
periodically to see whether data below them can be
validated, and if so, they will be allowed to
expire early. The "rndc nta -force" option
overrides this behvaior. The default NTA lifetime
and the recheck frequency can be configured by the
"nta-lifetime" and "nta-recheck" options. [RT #36146]
3867. [func] "rndc nta" can now be used to set a temporary
negative trust anchor, which disables DNSSEC
validation below a specified name for a specified
period of time (not exceeding 24 hours). This
can be used when validation for a domain is known
to be failing due to a configuration error on
the part of the domain owner rather than a
spoofing attack. [RT #29358]
