Security Fixes
* If a server is configured with a response policy zone (RPZ) that
rewrites an answer with local data, and is also configured for
DNS64 address mapping, a NULL pointer can be read triggering a
server crash. This flaw is disclosed in CVE-2017-3135. [RT #44434]
* named could mishandle authority sections with missing RRSIGs,
triggering an assertion failure. This flaw is disclosed in
CVE-2016-9444. [RT #43632]
* named mishandled some responses where covering RRSIG records were
returned without the requested data, resulting in an assertion
failure. This flaw is disclosed in CVE-2016-9147. [RT #43548]
* named incorrectly tried to cache TKEY records which could trigger
an assertion failure when there was a class mismatch. This flaw is
disclosed in CVE-2016-9131. [RT #43522]
* It was possible to trigger assertions when processing responses
containing answers of type DNAME. This flaw is disclosed in
CVE-2016-8864. [RT #43465]
* It was possible to trigger a assertion when rendering a message
using a specially crafted request. This flaw is disclosed in
CVE-2016-2776. [RT #43139]
* Calling getrrsetbyname() with a non absolute name could trigger an
infinite recursion bug in lwresd or named with lwres configured if,
when combined with a search list entry from resolv.conf, the
resulting name is too long. This flaw is disclosed in
CVE-2016-2775. [RT #42694]
New Features
* None.
Feature Changes
* None.
Porting Changes
* None.
Bug Fixes
* A synthesized CNAME record appearing in a response before the
associated DNAME could be cached, when it should not have been.
This was a regression introduced while addressing CVE-2016-8864.
[RT #44318]
* Fixed a crash when calling rndc stats on some Windows builds: some
Visual Studio compilers generate code that crashes when the "%z"
printf() format specifier is used. [RT #42380]
* ECS clients with the option set to 0.0.0.0/0/0 or ::/0/0 were
incorrectly getting a FORMERR response.
* Windows installs were failing due to triggering UAC without the
installation binary being signed.
* A race condition in rbt/rbtdb was leading to INSISTs being
triggered.
End of Life
The end of life for BIND 9.10 is yet to be determined but will not be
before BIND 9.12.0 has been released for 6 months.
