Description:

This update for bind fixes the following issues:

Version update from 9.16.33 to 9.16.35 (jsc#SLE-24801, jsc#SLE-24600)

  • New Features:
  • Support for parsing and validating the dohpath service parameter in SVCB records was added.
  • named now logs the supported cryptographic algorithms during startup and in the output of named -V

  • Bug Fixes:

  • A crash was fixed that happened when a dnssec-policy zone that used NSEC3 was reconfigured to enable inline-signing.
  • In certain resolution scenarios, quotas could be erroneously reached for servers, including any configured forwarders, resulting in SERVFAIL answers being sent to clients.
  • rpz-ip rules in response-policy zones could be ineffective in some cases if a query had the CD (Checking Disabled) bit set to 1.
  • Previously, if Internet connectivity issues were experienced during the initial startup of named, a BIND resolver with dnssec-validation set to auto could enter into a state where it would not recover without stopping named, manually deleting the managed-keys.bind and managed-keys.bind.jnl files, and starting named again.
  • The statistics counter representing the current number of clients awaiting recursive resolution results (RecursClients) could overflow in certain resolution scenarios.
  • Previously, BIND failed to start on Solaris-based systems with hundreds of CPUs.
  • When a DNS resource records TTL value was equal to the resolver configured prefetch eligibility value, the record was erroneously not treated as eligible for prefetching.
  • Changing just the TSIG key names for primaries in catalog zones member zones was not effective. This has been fixed.

  • Known Issues:

  • Upgrading from BIND 9.16.32 or any older version may require a manual configuration change. The following configurations are affected:
    • type primary zones configured with dnssec-policy but without either allow-update or update-policy
    • type secondary zones configured with dnssec-policy In these cases please add inline-signing yes; to the individual zone configuration(s). Without applying this change, named will fail to start. For more details, see https://kb.isc.org/docs/dnssec-policy-requires-dynamic-dns-or-inline-signing
