   Release Notes for BIND Version 9.9.11-P1

   Introduction

      This document summarizes changes since BIND 9.9.11.

      BIND 9.9.11-P1 addresses the security issue described in CVE-2017-3145.

   Download

      The latest versions of BIND 9 software can always be found at
      http://www.isc.org/downloads/. There you will find additional
      information about each release, source code, and pre-compiled versions
      for Microsoft Windows operating systems.

   New DNSSEC Root Key

      ICANN is in the process of introducing a new Key Signing Key (KSK) for
      the global root zone. BIND has multiple methods for managing DNSSEC
      trust anchors, with somewhat different behaviors. If the root key is
      configured using the managed-keys statement, or if the pre-configured
      root key is enabled by using dnssec-validation auto, then BIND can keep
      keys up to date automatically. Servers configured in this way should
      have begun the process of rolling to the new key when it was published
      in the root zone in July 2017. However, keys configured using the
      trusted-keys statement are not automatically maintained. If your server
      is performing DNSSEC validation and is configured using trusted-keys,
      you are advised to change your configuration before the root zone
      begins signing with the new KSK. This is currently scheduled for
      October 11, 2017.

      This release includes an updated version of the bind.keys file
      containing the new root key. This file can also be downloaded from
      https://www.isc.org/bind-keys .

   Windows XP No Longer Supported

      As of BIND 9.9.11, Windows XP is no longer a supported platform for
      BIND, and Windows XP binaries are no longer available for download from
      ISC.

   Security Fixes

        * Addresses could be referenced after being freed during resolver
          processing, causing an assertion failure. The chances of this
          happening were remote, but the introduction of a delay in
          resolution increased them. (The delay will be addressed in an
          upcoming maintenance release.) This bug is disclosed in
          CVE-2017-3145. [RT #46839]
        * An error in TSIG handling could permit unauthorized zone transfers
          or zone updates. These flaws are disclosed in CVE-2017-3142 and
          CVE-2017-3143. [RT #45383]
        * The BIND installer on Windows used an unquoted service path, which
          can enable privilege escalation. This flaw is disclosed in
          CVE-2017-3141. [RT #45229]
        * With certain RPZ configurations, a response with TTL 0 could cause
          named to go into an infinite query loop. This flaw is disclosed in
          CVE-2017-3140. [RT #45181]

   Feature Changes

        * Threads in named are now set to human-readable names to assist
          debugging on operating systems that support that. Threads will have
          names such as "isc-timer", "isc-sockmgr", \ 
"isc-worker0001", and so
          on. This will affect the reporting of subsidiary thread names in ps
          and top, but not the main thread. [RT #43234]
        * DiG now warns about .local queries which are reserved for Multicast
          DNS. [RT #44783]

   Bug Fixes

        * Fixed a bug that was introduced in an earlier development release
          which caused multi-packet AXFR and IXFR messages to fail validation
          if not all packets contained TSIG records; this caused
          interoperability problems with some other DNS implementations. [RT
          #45509]
        * Semicolons are no longer escaped when printing CAA and URI records.
          This may break applications that depend on the presence of the
          backslash before the semicolon. [RT #45216]
        * AD could be set on truncated answer with no records present in the
          answer and authority sections. [RT #45140]

   End of Life

      BIND 9.9 (Extended Support Version) will be supported until at least
      June, 2018. https://www.isc.org/downloads/software-support-policy/
