[Touch-packages] [Bug 1981794] Re: Duplicate/retried DNS queries fail with REFUSED (Fixed in upstream)
This bug was fixed in the package dnsmasq - 2.86-1.1ubuntu0.2 --- dnsmasq (2.86-1.1ubuntu0.2) jammy; urgency=medium * src/forward.c: Do not refuse retries from client DNS queries. Behaviour to stop infinite loops when all servers return REFUSED was wrongly activated on client retries, resulting in incorrect REFUSED replies to client retries.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1981794] Re: Duplicate/retried DNS queries fail with REFUSED (Fixed in upstream)
I have tested version 2.86-1.1ubuntu0.2 and that seems to have fixed it. The bug only appears when dnsmasq is forwarding responses in --strict- order mode and there's a duplicate request packet received before dnsmasq has replied to the original request packet. This is a procedure I came up with to reproduce and test that specific circumstance: I am using a network namespace to simplify networking, avoid port conflicts, and maintain tcpdump's protocol decoding. This test process requires running and interacting with multiple processes at once, and so it's easiest to just open multiple terminal windows. I create the net namespace with the first terminal, and then join the created namespace with additional terminals. To create the NS in the first terminal: $ sudo unshare --net # echo $$ > 12123 # ip addr add 127.0.0.1/8 dev lo # ip link set up dev lo # The `echo $$` gives the shell PID (12123 in this example), which is also the namespace PID. This can optionally be verified with lsns: # lsns -t net > NS TYPE NPROCS PID USER NETNSID NSFS COMMAND > 1234567890 net 2 12123 root unassigned -bash To join the NS from subsequent terminals: $ sudo nsenter -n -t 12123 # Test process: The first process to run is a fake upstream server for dnsmasq to forward responses from. We will run this on an alternate port (5353) and have it respond to requests for a test domain. # dnsmasq -d -p 5353 --no-resolv -A /example.com/192.0.2.1 The second process is the main dnsmasq process we want to actually test. It uses --strict-order and uses our fake upstream to answer all requests. We will also use systemd-run to limit dnsmasq's cpu resources to slow it down enough to more easily queue up duplicate requests. # systemd-run --scope -p CPUQuota=1% -- dnsmasq -d --strict-order --no- resolv -S 127.0.0.1#5353 The third process is just tcpdump to monitor requests to and responses from dnsmasq. I have piped the output through grep to make it easier to analyze the results for refused packets, but you can also leave that off and search the output manually. # tcpdump -ln udp port 53 | grep --line-buffered -iC 5 refused The final process is using `scapy` to generate dns packets with a duplicated request id. Scapy can be installed from the default repositories as `python3-scapy`. Scapy has to be switched to raw sockets mode to be able to work over the loopback interface before we can start sending dns packets. # scapy >>> conf.L3socket = L3RawSocket Now we can send some dns packets with scapy. All the packets should have the same request id in them, so we set it to a static number (we picked 47 in this example). We have also set it to send 50 packets, which is usually enough to get a few packets queued before dnsmasq can process the previous ones. >>> send(IP(dst='127.0.0.1')/UDP()/DNS(id=47,qd=DNSQR(qname='example.com')),count=50) You can also choose to send packets continuously until cancelled with Ctrl-C. >>> send(IP(dst='127.0.0.1')/UDP()/DNS(id=47,qd=DNSQR(qname='example.com')),loop=True) We can now check tcpdump for refused packets, which should show up anytime after there are two or more requests in a row without a response in between them. If you don't see any send another batch or two of packets. Here's some example output: 22:10:39.518439 IP 127.0.0.1.53 > 127.0.0.1.53: 47+ A? example.com.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1981794] Re: Duplicate/retried DNS queries fail with REFUSED (Fixed in upstream)
** Description changed: [Impact] When a DNS query fails to complete and the system retries it, subsequent copies of the query will be refused by dnsmasq. The client will automatically receive the REFUSED return value without a retry attempt. Adding this fix will stop dnsmasq from unnecessarily breaking connections, especially for situations where an internet connection is flaky. This bug is fixed by patching in an upstream commit - https://thekelleys.org.uk/gitweb/?p=dnsmasq.git;a=commit;h=2561f9fe0eb9c0be - which allows retried DNS requests through rather than refusing them. [Test Plan] The fix can be tested using 2 lxd containers, 1 for running the fix, and 1 for acting as a dns server. Start by setting up the dns server container: # lxc launch images:ubuntu/jammy dns-resolver # lxc exec dns-resolver bash # apt update && apt dist-upgrade -y # systemctl disable systemd-resolved # systemctl stop systemd-resolved # unlink /etc/resolv.conf # echo nameserver 8.8.8.8 | tee /etc/resolv.conf # apt install net-tools dnsmasq -y # systemctl enable dnsmasq Get the container's ip on lxd's network, in this case ifconfig is used, showing 10.62.42.157: # ifconfig eth0: flags=4163 mtu 1500 - inet 10.62.42.157 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.62.42.255 - ... + inet 10.62.42.157 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 10.62.42.255 + ... Now set up the test container: # lxc launch images:ubuntu/jammy test-dnsmasq # lxc exec test-dnsmasq bash # apt update && apt dist-upgrade -y # systemctl disable systemd-resolved # systemctl stop systemd-resolved # unlink /etc/resolv.conf Use other container's ip here # echo "nameserver 10.62.42.157 nameserver 127.0.0.1" | tee /etc/resolv.conf # apt install dnsmasq -y # systemctl enable dnsmasq Setup bind9 to delay ping resolution failure when testing # apt install bind9 -y # cat swap containers # echo nameserver 8.8.8.8 | tee /etc/resolv.conf; systemctl restart dnsmasq Ping will continue to not pick up the domain and fails with: ping: ubuntu.com: Temporary failure in name resolution With the fix, ping should now pick up the new successful responses: PING ubuntu.com (185.125.190.29) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from website-content-cache-3.ps5.canonical.com (185.125.190.29): icmp_seq=1 ttl=48 time=165 ms 64 bytes from website-content-cache-3.ps5.canonical.com (185.125.190.29): icmp_seq=2 ttl=48 time=162 ms 64 bytes from website-content-cache-3.ps5.canonical.com (185.125.190.29): icmp_seq=3 ttl=48 time=166 ms 64 bytes from website-content-cache-3.ps5.canonical.com (185.125.190.29): icmp_seq=4 ttl=48 time=164 ms 64 bytes from website-content-cache-3.ps5.canonical.com (185.125.190.29): icmp_seq=5 ttl=48 time=163 ms 64 bytes from website-content-cache-3.ps5.canonical.com (185.125.190.29): icmp_seq=6 ttl=48 time=163 ms ^C --- ubuntu.com ping statistics --- 6 packets transmitted, 6 received, 0% packet loss, time 5005ms + Note: ping is used here instead of another dns tester such as dig + because it continues its dns resolution attempts with retry packets even + after receiving a REFUSED error.

[Where problems could occur] This change was added upstream in version 2.87, which means it has not been tested in many situations alongside 2.86. Allowing the retries could lead to a flood of requests to remote DNS servers if the replies are unable to make it back through dnsmasq to the user. [Other Info] This bug was fixed in Kinetic in version 2.86-1.1ubuntu2. [Original Description] Duplicate or retried DNS
[Touch-packages] [Bug 1981794] Re: Duplicate/retried DNS queries fail with REFUSED (Fixed in upstream)
This bug was fixed in the package dnsmasq - 2.86-1.1ubuntu2 --- dnsmasq (2.86-1.1ubuntu2) kinetic; urgency=medium * src/forward.c: Do not refuse retries from client DNS queries. Behaviour to stop infinite loops when all servers return REFUSED was wrongly activated on client retries, resulting in incorrect REFUSED replies to client retries. The code added here is a cherry pick released in upstream version 2.87, originating at https://thekelleys.org.uk/gitweb/?p=dnsmasq.git;a=commit;h=2561f9fe0eb9c0be (LP: #1981794) -- Lena Voytek Fri, 30 Sep 2022 08:42:39 -0700 ** Changed in: dnsmasq (Ubuntu Kinetic) Status: In Progress => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to dnsmasq in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1981794 Title: Duplicate/retried DNS queries fail with REFUSED (Fixed in upstream) Status in dnsmasq package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in dnsmasq source package in Jammy: Confirmed Status in dnsmasq source package in Kinetic: Fix Released Bug description: Duplicate or retried DNS queries will return REFUSED for one of the queries causing intermittent failures in clients.
