BIND 9.7.0b3 is now available.
BIND 9.7.0b3 is the third beta release of BIND 9.7.0.
Overview:
BIND 9.7 includes a number of changes from BIND 9.6 and earlier
releases. Most are intended to simplify DNSSEC configuration
and operation.
NOTE: This release contains the following security fix:
2772. [security] When validating, track whether pending data was from
the additional section or not and only return it if
validates as secure. [RT #20438]
New features include:
- Fully automatic signing of zones by "named".
- Simplified configuration of DNSSEC Lookaside Validation (DLV).
- Simplified configuration of Dynamic DNS, using the "ddns-confgen"
command line tool or the "local" update-policy option. (As a side
effect, this also makes it easier to configure automatic zone
re-signing.)
- New named option "attach-cache" that allows multiple views to
share a single cache.
- DNS rebinding attack prevention.
- New default values for dnssec-keygen parameters.
- Support for RFC 5011 automated trust anchor maintenance
(see README.rfc5011 for additional details).
- Smart signing: simplified tools for zone signing and key
maintenance.
- The "statistics-channels" option is now available on Windows.
- A new DNSSEC-aware libdns API for use by non-BIND9 applications
(see README.libdns for details).
- On some platforms, named and other binaries can now print out
a stack backtrace on assertion failure, to aid in debugging.
- A "tools only" installation mode on Windows, which only installs
dig, host, nslookup and nsupdate.
- Improved PKCS#11 support, including Keyper support and explicit
OpenSSL engine selection (see README.pkcs11 for additional details).
Warning: If you had built BIND 9.6 with any of ALLOW_NSEC3PARAM_UPDATE,
ALLOW_SECURE_TO_INSECURE or ALLOW_INSECURE_TO_SECURE defined then
you should ensure that all changes that are in progress have completed
prior to upgrading to BIND 9.7. BIND 9.7 is not backwards compatible.
