This is a minor release with couple improvements and many bugfixes, including security fixes for CVE-2019-10190 and CVE-2019-10191. Packages for supported distributions are now available from https://www.knot-resolver.cz/download/ Highlights ========== - - security fixes, we encourage all users to upgrade as soon as possible - - new garbage collector improves cache utilization on busy machines - - ARM64 (aarch64) is now experimentally supported, please report issues - - compatibility with non-standard DoH clients was improved Full release notes: Knot Resolver 4.1.0 (2019-07-10) ================================ Security - -------- - - fix CVE-2019-10190: do not pass bogus negative answer to client (!827) - - fix CVE-2019-10191: do not cache negative answer with forged QNAME+QTYPE (!839) Improvements - ------------ - - new cache garbage collector is available and enabled by default (#257) This improves cache efficiency on big installations. - - DNS-over-HTTPS: unknown HTTP parameters are ignored to improve compatibility with non-standard clients (!832) - - DNS-over-HTTPS: answers include `access-control-allow-origin: *` which allows JavaScript to use DoH endpoint (!823). - - http module: support named AF_UNIX stream sockets (again) - - aggressive caching is disabled on minimal NSEC* ranges (!826) This improves cache effectivity with DNSSEC black lies and also accidentally works around bug in proofs-of-nonexistence from F5 BIG-IP load-balancers. - - aarch64 support, even kernels with ARM64_VA_BITS >= 48 (#216, !797) This is done by working around a LuaJIT incompatibility. Please report bugs. - - lua tables for C modules are more strict by default, e.g. `nsid.foo` will throw an error instead of returning `nil` (!797) - - systemd: basic watchdog is now available and enabled by default (#275) Bugfixes - -------- - - TCP to upstream: fix unlikely case of sending out wrong message length (!816) - - http module: fix problems around maintenance of ephemeral certs (!819) - - http module: also send intermediate TLS certificate to clients, if available and luaossl >= 20181207 (!819) - - send EDNS with SERVFAILs, e.g. on validation failures (#180, !827) - - prefill module: avoid crash on empty zone file (#474, !840) - - rebinding module: avoid excessive iteration on blocked attempts (!842) - - rebinding module: fix crash caused by race condition (!842) - - rebinding module: log each blocked query only in verbose mode (!842) - - cache: automatically clear stale reader locks (!844) Module API changes - ------------------ - - lua modules may omit casting parameters of layer functions (!797) - -- Petr Špaček @ CZ.NIC
