68      This document summarizes changes since BIND 9.10.2:
69    </p>
70<p>
71      BIND 9.10.2-P4 addresses security issues described in
72      CVE-2015-5722 and CVE-2015-5986.
73    </p>
74<p>
75      BIND 9.10.2-P3 addresses a security issue described in
76      CVE-2015-5477.
77    </p>
78<p>
79      BIND 9.10.2-P2 addresses a security issue described in
80      CVE-2015-4620.
81    </p>
82<p>
83      BIND 9.10.2-P1 addressed several bugs that have been identified
84      in the BIND 9.10 implementation of response-policy zones (RPZ).
85      The bugs are in code which optimizes searching through multiple
86      policy zones. In some cases, they can cause RPZ to behave
87      inefficiently by searching for query matches in more policy
88      zones than are strictly necessary, or to behave unpredictably
89      by failing to search a policy zone that should have been
90      searched.  In the worst case, they can lead to assertion
91      failures, terminating <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span>.

109<li><p>
110	  An incorrect boundary check in the OPENPGPKEY rdatatype
111	  could trigger an assertion failure. This flaw is disclosed
112	  in CVE-2015-5986. [RT #40286]
113	</p></li>
114<li>
115<p>
116	  A buffer accounting error could trigger an assertion failure
117	  when parsing certain malformed DNSSEC keys.
118	</p>
119<p>
120	  This flaw was discovered by Hanno B&#50102;eck of the Fuzzing
121	  Project, and is disclosed in CVE-2015-5722. [RT #40212]
122	</p>
123</li>
124<li>
125<p>
126	  A specially crafted query could trigger an assertion failure
127	  in message.c.
128	</p>
129<p>
130	  This flaw was discovered by Jonathan Foote, and is disclosed
131	  in CVE-2015-5477. [RT #39795]
132	</p>
133</li>
134<li>
135<p>
136	  On servers configured to perform DNSSEC validation, an
137	  assertion failure could be triggered on answers from
138	  a specially configured server.
139	</p>
140<p>
141	  This flaw was discovered by Breno Silveira Soares, and is
142	  disclosed in CVE-2015-4620. [RT #39795]

161<li><p>
162	  Asynchronous zone loads were not handled correctly when the
163	  zone load was already in progress; this could trigger a crash
164	  in zt.c. [RT #37573]
165	</p></li>
166<li>
167<p>
168	  Several bugs have been fixed in the RPZ implementation:
169	</p>
170<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="circle">
171<li><p>
172	      Policy zones that did not specifically require recursion
173	      could be treated as if they did; consequently, setting
174	      <span><strong class="command">qname-wait-recurse no;</strong></span> was
175	      sometimes ineffective.  This has been corrected.
176	      In most configurations, behavioral changes due to this
177	      fix will not be noticeable. [RT #39229]
178	    </p></li>
179<li><p>
180	      The server could crash if policy zones were updated (e.g.
181	      via <span><strong class="command">rndc reload</strong></span> or an incoming zone
182	      transfer) while RPZ processing was still ongoing for an
183	      active query. [RT #39415]
184	    </p></li>
185<li><p>
186	      On servers with one or more policy zones configured as
187	      slaves, if a policy zone updated during regular operation
188	      (rather than at startup) using a full zone reload, such as
189	      via AXFR, a bug could allow the RPZ summary data to fall out
190	      of sync, potentially leading to an assertion failure in
191	      rpz.c when further incremental updates were made to the
192	      zone, such as via IXFR. [RT #39567]
193	    </p></li>
194<li><p>
195	      The server could match a shorter prefix than what was
196	      available in CLIENT-IP policy triggers, and so, an
197	      unexpected action could be taken. This has been
198	      corrected. [RT #39481]
199	    </p></li>
200<li><p>
201	      The server could crash if a reload of an RPZ zone was
202	      initiated while another reload of the same zone was
203	      already in progress. [RT #39649]
204	    </p></li>
