Release Notes for BIND Version 9.10.8rc1 Introduction This document summarizes changes since the last production release on the BIND 9.10 branch. Please see the CHANGES file for a further list of bug fixes and other changes. Download The latest versions of BIND 9 software can always be found at http://www.isc.org/downloads/. There you will find additional information about each release, source code, and pre-compiled versions for Microsoft Windows operating systems. Legacy Windows No Longer Supported As of BIND 9.10.6, Windows XP and Windows 2003 are no longer supported platforms for BIND; "XP" binaries are no longer available for download from ISC. Security Fixes * When recursion is enabled but the allow-recursion and allow-query-cache ACLs are not specified, they should be limited to local networks, but they were inadvertently set to match the default allow-query, thus allowing remote queries. This flaw is disclosed in CVE-2018-5738. [GL #309] New Features * Add root key sentinel support which enables resolvers to test which trust anchors are configured for the root. To disable, add 'root-key-sentinel no;' to named.conf. [GL #37] Feature Changes * None. Bug Fixes * rndc reload could cause named to leak memory if it was invoked before the zone loading actions from a previous rndc reload command were completed. [RT #47076] End of Life BIND 9.10 will be supported until June, 2018, at which time this final maintenance release will be published for the branch. For those needing long-term support, the current Extended Support Version is BIND 9.11, which will be supported until at least December, 2021. The current stable branch is BIND 9.12.
