Package: bind9
Version: 1:9.18.19-1~deb12u1
Severity: normal
When bind9/named is configured to log category rpz messages to a file, some
rpz log messages are not captured and sent to the intended destination.
Example:
Add the following stanza in named.conf.options:
logging {
channel rpzlog {
file "/var/log/named/rpz.log" versions unlimited size 100m;
print-time yes;
print-category yes;
print-severity yes;
severity info;
};
category rpz { rpzlog; };
};
With this configuration for logging, most rpz log messages are properly
sent to the intended file (NXDOMAIN items), but some rpz messages are not.
So far, the ones that seem not to be properly captured by this log destination
are rpz "passthru" lookups.
Example log messages that end up in the default syslog/journald rather than
the configured log file:
Dec 10 01:29:41 somehostn named[327739]: client @0x7fee327a6568 127.0.0.1#35809
(some.domain.name): rpz QNAME PASSTHRU rewrite some.domain.name/A/IN via
some.domain.name.rpz.local
Dec 10 01:29:41 somehost named[327739]: client @0x7fee32785768 127.0.0.1#35809
(some.domain.name): rpz QNAME PASSTHRU rewrite some.domain.name/AAAA/IN via
some.domain.name.rpz.local
Example rpz entry that generates log entries that fail to go to the rpz
category/destination:
some.domain.name CNAME rpz-passthru.
Example rpz entry that generates log entries that do go to the proper rpz
category/destination:
other.domain.name CNAME .
