Notable bug fixes and enhancements include: * Improved the `lame-ttl` option to be more secure. * A multiple threads bug affecting RBTDB instances no longer results in assertion failure in `free_rbtdb()`. * Updated implementation of the ZONEMD RR type to match RFC 8976. * The maximum supported number of NSEC3 iterations has been reduced to 150. Records with more iterations are treated as insecure. * An invalid direction field in a LOC record no longer results in a failure.

Description Petr Menšík 2021-10-14 08:47:43 UTC
Description of problem:
BIND 9.11 line would be soon stop receiving any updates from upstream. I think it would be good to update to the latest release released in that major version. Currently version 9.11.35 [1] is the latest, only security and critical bugs get included into this version line. We should update to the latest code before upstream stops any maintenance on this version.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
bind-9.11.26-6.el8

Comment 1 Petr Menšík 2021-11-01 12:13:05 UTC
Since the CVE-2021-25219 is the only change in latest release, I would include this change in a planned rebase. It would include few issue fixes not included in bind-9.11.26 current version.

Comment 3 Petr Menšík 2021-11-01 15:23:42 UTC
Including to additional upstream bugs, which should be fixed by the rebase. That excludes security bugs, which were upgraded by backported fixes. Backported patches would be removed, since fixes are already in the new original upstream archive.
