-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2009-6918 2009-06-23 20:28:46 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : python-dns Product : Fedora 10 Version : 1.7.1 Release : 1.fc10 URL : http://www.dnspython.org/ Summary : DNS toolkit for Python Description : dnspython is a DNS toolkit for Python. It supports almost all record types. It can be used for queries, zone transfers, and dynamic updates. It supports TSIG authenticated messages and EDNS0. dnspython provides both high and low level access to DNS. The high level classes perform queries for data of a given name, type, and class, and return an answer set. The low level classes allow direct manipulation of DNS zones, messages, names, and records. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: New since 1.7.0: Nothing Bugs fixed since 1.7.0: The 1.7.0 kitting process inadventently omitted the code for the DLV RR. Negative DDNS prerequisites are now handled correctly. New since 1.6.0: Rdatas now have a to_digestable() method, which returns the DNSSEC canonical form of the rdata, suitable for use in signature computations. The NSEC3, NSEC3PARAM, DLV, and HIP RR types are now supported. An entropy module has been added and is used to randomize query ids. EDNS0 options are now supported. UDP IXFR is now supported. The wire format parser now has a 'one_rr_per_rrset' mode, which suppresses the usual coalescing of all RRs of a given type into a single RRset. Various helpful DNSSEC-related constants are now defined. The resolver's query() method now has an optional 'source' parameter, allowing the source IP address to be specified. Bugs fixed since 1.6.0: On Windows, the resolver set the domain incorrectly. DS RR parsing only allowed one Base64 chunk. TSIG validation didn't always use absolute names. NSEC.to_text() only printed the last window. We did not canonicalize IPv6 addresses before comparing them; we would thus treat equivalent but different textual forms, e.g. "1:00::1" and "1::1" as being non-equivalent. If the peer set a TSIG error, we didn't raise an exception. Some EDNS bugs in the message code have been fixed (see the ChangeLog for details). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Jun 19 2009 Jeffrey C.
