small network. It can serve the names of local machines which are not
in the global DNS. The DHCP server integrates with the DNS server and
configuration file. Dnsmasq supports static and dynamic DHCP leases

dnsmasq: updated to 2.91
version 2.91
Fix spurious "resource limit exceeded messages". Thanks to
Dominik Derigs for the bug report.
Fix out-of-bounds heap read in order_qsort().
We only need to order two server records on the ->serial field.
Literal address records are smaller and don't have
this field and don't need to be ordered on it.
To actually provoke this bug seems to need the same server-literal
to be repeated twice, e.g., --address=/a/1.1.1.1 --address-/a/1.1.1.1
which is clearly rare in the wild, but if it did exist it could
provoke a SIGSEGV. Thanks to Daniel Rhea for fuzzing this one.
Fix buffer overflow when configured lease-change script name
is too long.
Thanks to Daniel Rhea for finding this one.
Improve behaviour in the face of non-responsive upstream TCP DNS
servers. Without shorter timeouts, clients are blocked for too long
and fail with their own timeouts.
Set --fast-dns-retries by default when doing DNSSEC. A single
downstream query can trigger many upstream queries. On an
unreliable network, there may not be enough downstream retries
to ensure that all these queries complete.
Improve behaviour in the face of truncated answers to queries
for DNSSEC records. Getting these answers by TCP doesn't now
involve a faked truncated answer to the downstream client to
force it to move to TCP. This improves performance and robustness
in the face of broken clients which can't fall back to TCP.
No longer remove data from truncated upstream answers. If an
upstream replies with a truncated answer, but the answer has some
RRs included, return those RRs, rather than returning and
empty answer.
Fix handling of EDNS0 UDP packet sizes.
When talking upstream we always add a pseudo header, and set the
UDP packet size to --edns-packet-max. Answering queries from
downstream, we get the answer (either from upstream or local
data) If local data won't fit the advertised size (or 512 if
there's not an EDNS0 header) return truncated. If upstream
returns truncated, do likewise. If upstream is OK, but the
answer is too big for downstream, truncate the answer.
Modify the behaviour of --synth-domain for IPv6.
When deriving a domain name from an IPv6 address, an address
such as 1234:: would become 1234--.example.com, which is
not legal in IDNA2008. Stop using the :: compression method,
so 1234:: becomes
1234-0000-0000-0000-0000-0000-0000-0000.example.com
Fix broken dhcp-relay on *BSD. Thanks to Harold for finding
this problem.
Add --dhcp-option-pxe config. This acts almost exactly like
--dhcp-option except that the defined option is only sent when
replying to PXE clients. More importantly, these options are sent
in reply PXE clients when dnsmasq in acting in PXE proxy mode. In
PXE proxy mode, the set of options sent is defined by the PXE standard
and the normal set of options is not sent. This config allows arbitrary
options in PXE-proxy replies. A typical use-case is to send option
175 to iPXE. Thanks to Jason Berry for finding the requirement for
this.
Support PXE proxy-DHCP and DHCP-relay at the same time.
When using PXE proxy-DHCP, dnsmasq supplies PXE information to
the client, which also talks to another "normal" DHCP server
for address allocation and similar. The normal DHCP server may
be on the local network, but it may also be remote, and accessed via
a DHCP relay. This change allows dnsmasq to act as both a
PXE proxy-DHCP server AND a DHCP relay for the same network.
Fix erroneous "DNSSEC validated" state with non-DNSSEC
upstream servers. Thanks to Dominik Derigs for the bug report.
Handle queries with EDNS client subnet fields better. If dnsmasq
is configured to add an EDNS client subnet to a query, it is careful
to suppress use of the cache, since a cached answer may not be valid
for a query with a different client subnet. Extend this behaviour
to queries which arrive a dnsmasq already carrying an EDNS client
subnet.
Handle DS queries to auth zones. When dnsmasq is configured to
act as an authoritative server and has an authoritative zone
configured, and receives a query for that zone _as_forwarder_
it answers the query directly rather than forwarding it. This
doesn't affect the answer, but it saves dnsmasq forwarding the
query to the recursor upstream, which then bounces it back to dnsmasq
in auth mode. The exception should be when the query is for the root
of zone, for a DS RR. The answer to that has to come from the parent,
via the recursor, and will typically be a proof-of-non-existence
since dnsmasq doesn't support signed zones. This patch suppresses
local answers and forces forwarding to the upstream recursor for such
queries. It stops breakage when a DNSSEC validating client makes
queries to dnsmasq acting as forwarder for a zone for which it is
authoritative.
Implement "DNS-0x20 encoding", for extra protection against
reply-spoof attacks. Since DNS queries are case-insensitive,
it's possible to randomly flip the case of letters in a query
and still get the correct answer back.
This adds an extra dimension for a cache-poisoning attacker
to guess when sending replies in-the-blind since it's expected
that the legitimate answer will have the same pattern of upper
and lower case as the query, so any replies which don't can be
ignored as malicious. The amount of extra entropy clearly depends
on the number of a-z and A-Z characters in the query, and this
implementation puts a hard limit of 32 bits to make resource
allocation easy. This about doubles entropy over the standard
random ID and random port combination. This technique can interact
badly with rare broken DNS servers which don't preserve the case
of the query in their reply. The first time a reply is returned
which matches the query in all respects except case, a warning
will be logged. In this release, 0x020-encoding is default-off
and must be explicitly enabled with --do-0x20-encoding. In future
releases it may default on. You can avoid a future release
changing the behaviour of an installation with --no-x20-encode.
Fix a long-standing problem when two queries which are identical
in every repect _except_ case, get combined by dnsmasq. If
dnsmasq gets eg, two queries for example.com and Example.com
in quick succession it will get the answer for example.com from
upstream and send that answer to both requestors. This means that
the query for Example.com will get an answer for example.com, and
in the modern DNS, that answer may not be accepted.

Fix reversion in --rev-server introduced in 2.88 which
caused breakage if the prefix length is not exactly divisible
by 8 (IPv4) or 4 (IPv6).
Fix possible SEGV when there server(s) for a particular
domain are configured, but no server which is not qualified
for a particular domain. Thanks to Daniel Danzberger for
spotting this bug.
Set the default maximum DNS UDP packet sice to 1232. This
has been the recommended value since 2020 because it's the
largest value that avoid fragmentation, and fragmentation
is just not reliable on the modern internet, especially
for IPv6. It's still possible to override this with
--edns-packet-max for special circumstances.
Add --no-dhcpv4-interface and --no-dhcpv6-interface for
better control over which inetrfaces are providing DHCP service.
Fix issue with stale caching: After replying with stale data,
dnsmasq sends the query upstream to refresh the cache asynchronously
and sometimes sends the wrong packet: packet length can be wrong,
and if an EDE marking stale data is added to the answer that can
end up in the query also. This bug only seems to cause problems
when the usptream server is a DOH/DOT proxy. Thanks to Justin He
for the bug report.
Add configurable caching for arbitrary RR-types.
Add --filter-rr option, to filter arbitrary RR-types.
--filter-rr=ANY has a special meaning: it filters the
answers to queries for the ANY RR-type.
Add limits on the resources used to do DNSSEC validation.
DNSSEC introduces a potential CPU DoS, because a crafted domain
can force a validator to a large number of cryptographic
operations whilst attempting to do validation. When using TCP
transport a DNSKEY RRset contain thousands of members and any
RRset can have thousands of signatures. The potential number
of signature validations to follow the RFC for validation
for one RRset is the cross product of the keys and signatures,
so millions. In practice, the actual numbers are much lower,
so attacks can be mitigated by limiting the amount of
cryptographic "work" to a much lower amount. The actual
limits are number a signature validation fails per RRset(20),
number of signature validations and hash computations
per query(200), number of sub-queries to fetch DS and DNSKEY
RRsets per query(40), and the number of iterations in a
NSEC3 record(150). These values are sensible, but there is, as yet,
no standardisation on the values for a "conforming" domain, so a
new option --dnssec-limit is provided should they need to be altered.
The algorithm to validate DS records has also been altered to reduce
the maximum work from cross product of the number of DS records and
number of DNSKEYs to the cross product of the number of DS records
and supported DS digest types. As the number of DS digest types
is in single figures, this reduces the exposure.
Credit is due to Elias Heftrig, Haya Schulmann, Niklas Vogel,
and Michael Waidner from the German National Research Center for
Applied Cybersecurity ATHENE for finding this vulnerability.
CVE 2023-50387 and CVE 2023-50868 apply.
Note that the is a security vulnerablity only when DNSSEC validation
is enabled.

dnsmasq: updated to 2.88
version 2.88
Fix bug in --dynamic-host when an interface has /16 IPv4
address. Thanks to Mark Dietzer for spotting this.
Add --fast-dns-retry option. This gives dnsmasq the ability
to originate retries for upstream DNS queries itself, rather
than relying on the downstream client. This is most useful
when doing DNSSEC over unreliable upstream networks. It comes
with some cost in memory usage and network bandwidth.
Add --use-stale-cache option. When set, if a DNS name exists
in the cache, but its time-to-live has expired, dnsmasq will
return the data anyway. (It attempts to refresh the
data with an upstream query after returning the stale data.)
This can improve speed and reliability. It comes
at the expense of sometimes returning out-of-date data and
less efficient cache utilisation, since old data cannot be
flushed when its TTL expires, so the cache becomes
strictly least-recently-used.
Make --hostsdir (but NOT --dhcp-hostsdir and --dhcp-optsdir)
handle removal of whole files or entries within files.
Thanks to Dominik Derigs for the initial patches for this.
Fix bug, introduced in 2.87, which could result in DNS
servers being removed from the configuration when reloading
server configuration from DBus, or re-reading /etc/resolv.conf
Only servers from the same source should be replaced, but some
servers from other sources (i.e., hard coded or another dynamic source)
could mysteriously disappear. Thanks to all reporting this,
but especially Christopher J. Madsen who reduced the problem
to an easily reproducible case which saved much labour in
finding it.
Add --no-round-robin option.
Allow domain names as well as IP addresses when specifying
upstream DNS servers. There are some gotchas associated with this
(it will mysteriously fail to work if the dnsmasq instance
being started is in the path from the system resolver to the DNS),
and a seemingly sensible configuration like
--server=domain.name@1.2.3.4 is unactionable if domain.name
only resolves to an IPv6 address). There are, however,
cases where is can be useful. Thanks to Dominik Derigs for
the patch.
Handle DS records for unsupported crypto algorithms correctly.
Such a DS, as long as it is validated, should allow answers
in the domain it attests to be returned as unvalidated, and not
as a validation error.
Optimise reading large numbers of --server options. When re-reading
upstream servers from /etc/resolv.conf or other sources that
can change dnsmasq tries to avoid memory fragmentation by re-using
existing records that are being re-read unchanged. This involves
seaching all the server records for each new one installed.
During startup this search is pointless, and can cause long
start times with thousands of --server options because the work
needed is O(n^2). Handle this case more intelligently.
Thanks to Ye Zhou for spotting the problem and an initial patch.
If we detect that a DNS reply from upstream is malformed don't
return it to the requestor; send a SEVFAIL rcode instead.

Generalise --dhcp-relay. Sending via broadcast/multicast is
now supported for both IPv4 and IPv6 and the configuration
syntax made easier (but backwards compatible).
Add snooping of IPv6 prefix-delegations to the DHCP-relay system.
Finesse parsing of --dhcp-remoteid and --dhcp-subscrid. To be treated

at least one ':'. Thanks to Bengt-Erik Sandstrom who tripped
over a pattern consisting of a decimal number which was interpreted
surprisingly.
Include client address in TFTP file-not-found error reports.
Thanks to Stefan Rink for the initial patch, which has been
re-worked by me (srk). All bugs mine.
Note in manpage the change in behaviour of -address. This behaviour
actually changed in v2.86, but was undocumented there. From 2.86 on,
(eg) --address=/example.com/1.2.3.4 ONLY applies to A queries. All other
types of query will be sent upstream. Pre 2.86, that would catch the
whole example.com domain and queries for other types would get
a local NODATA answer. The pre-2.86 behaviour is still available,
by configuring --address=/example.com/1.2.3.4 --local=/example.com/
Fix problem with binding DHCP sockets to an individual interface.
Despite the fact that the system call tales the interface _name_ as
a parameter, it actually, binds the socket to interface _index_.
Deleting the interface and creating a new one with the same name
leaves the socket bound to the old index. (Creating new sockets
always allocates a fresh index, they are not reused). We now
take this behaviour into account and keep up with changing indexes.
Add --conf-script configuration option.
Enhance --domain to accept, for instance,
--domain=net2.thekelleys.org.uk,eth2 so that hosts get a domain
which relects the interface they are attached to in a way which
doesn't require hard-coding addresses. Thanks to Sten Spans for
the idea.
Fix write-after-free error in DHCPv6 server code.
CVE-2022-0934 refers.
Add the ability to specify destination port in
DHCP-relay mode. This change also removes a previous bug
where --dhcp-alternate-port would affect the port used
to relay _to_ as well as the port being listened on.
The new feature allows configuration to provide bug-for-bug
compatibility, if required. Thanks to Damian Kaczkowski
for the feature suggestion.
Bound the value of UDP packet size in the EDNS0 header of
forwarded queries to the configured or default value of
edns-packet-max. There's no point letting a client set a larger
value if we're unable to return the answer. Thanks to Bertie
Taylor for pointing out the problem and supplying the patch.
Fix problem with the configuration
--server=/some.domain/# --address=/#/<ip> --server=<server_ip>
This would return <ip> for queries in some.domain, rather than
forwarding the query via the default server.
Tweak DHCPv6 relay code so that packets relayed towards a server
have source address on the server-facing network, not the
client facing network. Thanks to Luis Thomas for spotting this
