The Berkeley Internet Name Domain (BIND) DNS (Domain Name System) server

Notes for BIND 9.16.2
Security Fixes
DNS rebinding protection was ineffective when BIND 9 is configured as a forwarding DNS server. Found and responsibly reported by Tobias Klein. [GL #1574]
Known Issues
We have received reports that in some circumstances, receipt of an IXFR can cause the processing of queries to slow significantly. Some of these were related to RPZ processing, which has been fixed in this release (see below). Others appear to occur where there are NSEC3-related changes (such as an operator changing the NSEC3 salt used in the hash calculation). These are being investigated. [GL #1685]
Feature Changes
The previous DNSSEC sign statistics used lots of memory. The number of keys to track is reduced to four per zone, which should be enough for 99% of all signed zones. [GL #1179]
Bug Fixes
When an RPZ policy zone was updated via zone transfer and a large number of records was deleted, named could become nonresponsive for a short period while deleted names were removed from the RPZ summary database. This database cleanup is now done incrementally over a longer period of time, reducing such delays. [GL #1447]
When trying to migrate an already-signed zone from auto-dnssec maintain to one based on dnssec-policy, the existing keys were immediately deleted and replaced with new ones. As the key rollover timing constraints were not being followed, it was possible that some clients would not have been able to validate responses until all old DNSSEC information had timed out from caches. BIND now looks at the time metadata of the existing keys and incorporates it into its DNSSEC policy operation. [GL #1706]

BIND 9
BIND (Berkeley Internet Name Domain) is a complete, highly portable implementation of the DNS (Domain Name System) protocol.
Internet Systems Consortium (https://www.isc.org), a 501(c)(3) public benefit corporation dedicated to providing software and services in support of the Internet infrastructure, developed BIND 9 and is responsible for its ongoing maintenance and improvement.
More details about upstream project can be found on their gitlab. This repository contains only upstream sources and packaging instructions for Fedora Project.
Subpackages
The package contains several subpackages, some of them can be disabled on rebuild.
- bind -- named daemon providing DNS server
- bind-utils -- set of tools to analyse DNS responses or update entries (dig, host)
- bind-doc -- documentation for current bind, BIND 9 Administrator Reference Manual.
- bind-license -- Shared license for all packages but bind-export-libs.
- bind-sdb -- named daemon built with support for Dynamically Loadable Zones, interface to serve DNS names from external databases like LDAP or SQL. Can be disabled by
--without SDB. - bind-pkcs11 -- named daemon built with native PKCS#11 support. Can be disabled by
--without PKCS11. - bind-libs and bind-libs-lite -- Shared libraries used by some others programs
- bind-export-libs -- Special subset of libraries without support for threads. Used by dhcp package. Can be disabled by
--without EXPORT_LIBS - bind-devel -- Development headers for libs. Can be disabled by
--without DEVEL
Optional features
- GSSTSIG -- Support for Kerberos authentication in BIND.
- LMDB -- Support for dynamic database for managing runtime added zones. Provides faster removal of added zone with much less overhead. But requires lmdb linked to base libs.
- DLZ -- Support for dynamic loaded modules providing support for features bind-sdb provides, but only small module is required.
