critical Nessus Plugin ID 144120
Language:
Synopsis
The remote openSUSE host is missing a security update.Description
This update for nsd fixes the following issues :nsd was updated to the new upstream release 4.3.4
FEATURES :
- Merge PR #141: ZONEMD RR type.
BUG FIXES :
- Fix that symlink does not interfere with chown of pidfile (boo#1179191, CVE-2020-28935)
- Fix #128: Fix that the invalid port number is logged for sendmmsg failed: Invalid argument.
- Fix #133: fix 0-init of local ( stack ) buffer.
- Fix #134: IPV4_MINIMAL_RESPONSE_SIZE vs EDNS_MAX_MESSAGE_LEN.
- Fix to add missing closest encloser NSEC3 for wildcard nodata type DS answer.
- Fix #138: NSD returns non-EDNS answer when QUESTION is empty.
- Fix #142: NODATA answers missin SOA in authority section after CNAME chain.
New upstream release 4.3.3 :
FEATURES :
- Follow DNS flag day 2020 advice and set default EDNS message size to 1232.
- Merged PR #113 with fixes. Instead of listing an IP-address to listen on, an interface name can be specified in nsd.conf, with ip-address: eth0. The IP-addresses for that interface are then used.
- New upstream release 4.3.2
FEATURES :
- Fix #96: log-only-syslog: yes sets to only use syslog, fixes that the default configuration and systemd results in duplicate log messages.
- Fix #107: nsd -v shows configure line, openssl version and libevent version.
- Fix #103 with #110: min-expire-time option. To provide a lower bound for expire period. Expressed in number of seconds or refresh+retry+1.
BUG FIXES :
- Fix to omit the listen-on lines from log at startup, unless verbose.
- Fix #97: EDNS unknown version: query not in response.
- Fix #99: Fix copying of socket properties with reuseport enabled.
- Document default value for tcp-timeout.
- Merge PR#102 from and0x000: add missing default in documentation for drop-updates.
- Fix unlink of pidfile warning if not possible due to permissions, nsd can display the message at high verbosity levels.
- Removed contrib/nsd.service, example is too complicated and not useful.
- Merge #108 from Nomis: Make the max-retry-time description clearer.
- Retry when udp send buffer is full to wait until buffer space is available.
- Remove errno reset behaviour from sendmmsg and recvmmsg replacement functions.
- Fix unit test for different nsd-control-setup -h exit code.
- Merge #112 from jaredmauch: log old and new serials when NSD rejects an IXFR due to an old serial number.
- Fix #106: Adhere better to xfrd bounds. Refresh and retry times.
- Fix #105: Clearing hash_tree means just emptying the tree.
New upstream release 4.3.1
BUG FIXES :
- Merge PR #91 by gearnode: nsd-control-setup recreate certificates. The '-r' option recreates certificates.
Without it it creates them if they do not exist, and does not modify them otherwise.
New upstream release 4.3.0
FEATURES :
- Fix to use getrandom() for randomness, if available.
- Fix #56: Drop sparse TSIG signing support in NSD. Sign every axfr packet with TSIG, according to the latest draft-ietf-dnsop-rfc2845bis-06, Section 5.3.1.
- Merge pull request #59 from buddyns: add FreeBSD support for conf key ip-transparent.
- Add feature to pin server processes to specific cpus.
- Add feature to pin IP addresses to selected server processes.
- Set process title to identify individual processes.
- Merge PR#22: minimise-any: prefer polular and not large RRset, from Daisuke Higashi.
- Add support for SO_BINDTODEVICE on Linux.
- Add feature to drop queries with opcode UPDATE.
BUG FIXES :
- Fix whitespace in nsd.conf.sample.in, patch from Paul Wouters.
- use-systemd is ignored in nsd.conf, when NSD is compiled with libsystemd it always signals readiness, if possible.
- Note that use-systemd is not necessary and ignored in man page.
- Fix responses for IXFR so that the authority section is not echoed in the response.
- Fix that the retry wait does not exceed one day for zone transfers.
- Update keyring as per https://nlnetlabs.nl/people/
New upstream release 4.2.3 :
- confine-to-zone configures NSD to not return out-of-zone additional information.
- pidfile '' allows to run NSD without a pidfile
- adds support for readiness notification with READY_FD
- fix excessive logging of ixfr failures, it stops the log when fallback to axfr is possible. log is enabled at high verbosity.
- The nsd.conf includes are sorted ascending, for include statements with a '*' from glob.
- Fix log address and failure reason with tls handshake errors, squelches (the same as unbound) some unless high verbosity is used.
- Number of different UDP handlers has been reduced to one. recvmmsg and sendmmsg implementations are now used on all platforms.
- Socket options are now set in designated functions for easy reuse.
- Socket setup has been simplified for easy reuse.
- Configuration parser is now aware of the context in which an option was specified.
- document that remote-control is a top-level nsd.conf attribute.
- Remove legacy upgrade of nsd users in %post (boo#1157331)
New upstream release 4.2.2 :
- Fix #20: CVE-2019-13207 Stack-based Buffer Overflow in the dname_concatenate() function. Reported by Frederic Cambus. It causes the zone parser to crash on a malformed zone file, with assertions enabled, an assertion catches it.
- Fix #19: Out-of-bounds read caused by improper validation of array index. Reported by Frederic Cambus.
The zone parser fails on type SIG because of mismatched definition with RRSIG.
- PR #23: Fix typo in nsd.conf man-page.
- Fix that NSD warns for wrong length of the hash in SSHFP records.
- Fix #25: NSD doesn't refresh zones after extended downtime, it refreshes the old zones.
- Set no renegotiation on the SSL context to stop client session renegotiation.
- Fix #29: SSHFP check NULL pointer dereference.
- Fix #30: SSHFP check failure due to missing domain name.
- Fix to timeval_add in minievent for remaining second in microseconds.
- PR #31: nsd-control: Add missing stdio header.
- PR #32: tsig: Fix compilation without HAVE_SSL.

New upstream release 4.2.1 :
- FEATURES :
- Added num.tls and num.tls6 stat counters.
- PR #12: send-buffer-size, receive-buffer-size, tcp-reject-overflow options for nsd.conf, from Jeroen Koekkoek.
- Fix #14, tcp connections have 1/10 to be active and have to work every second, and then they get time to complete during a reload, this is a process that lingers with the old version during a version update.
- BUG FIXES :
- Fix #13: Stray dot at the end of some log entries, removes dot after updated serial number in log entry.
- Fix TLS cipher selection, the previous was redundant, prefers CHACHA20-POLY1305 over AESGCM and was not as readable as it could be.
- Fix #15: crash in SSL library, initialize variables for TCP access when TLS is configured.
- Fix tls handshake event callback function mistake, reported by Mykhailo Danylenko.
- Fix output of nsd-checkconf -h.
New upstream release 4.2.0 :
- Implement TCP fast open
- Added DNS over TLS
- TLS OCSP stapling support with the tls-service-ocsp option
- New option hide-identity can be used in nsd.conf to stop NSD from responding with the hostname for probe queries that elicit the chaos class response, this is conform RFC4892

Update to upstream release 4.1.27 :
- FEATURES :
- Deny ANY with only one RR in response, by default. Patch from Daisuke Higashi. The deny-any statement in nsd.conf sets ANY queries over UDP to be further moved to TCP as well. Also no additional section processig for type ANY, reducing the response size.
- Fix #4215: on-the-fly change of TSIG keys with patch from Igor, adds nsd-control print_tsig, update_tsig, add_tsig, assoc_tsig and del_tsig. These changes are gone after reload, edit the config file (or a file included from it) to make changes that last after restart.
- BUG FIXES :

- BUG FIXES :
- Fix #4194: Zone file parser derailed by non-FQDN names in RHS of DNSSEC RRs.
- Fix #4202: nsd-control delzone incorrect exit code on error.
- Fix to not set GLOB_NOSORT so the nsd.conf include:
files are sorted and in a predictable order.

Update to upstream release 4.1.24 :
- Features
- #4102: control interface via local socket
- configure --enable-systemd (needs pkg-config and libsystemd) can be used to then use-systemd: yes in nsd.conf and have readiness signalling with systemd.

- Fix NSD time sensitive TSIG compare vulnerability.
Update to upstream release 4.1.22 :
- Features :
