* gab14b4f: expedite servfail generation for ezdns-like failures (fully abort query resolving if we hit more than 50 outqueries)

For more details, see Section 13, “PowerDNS Security Advisory 2014-01: PowerDNS Recursor 3.6.0 can be crashed remotely”. PowerDNS Recursor 3.6.1 was very well tested, and is in full production already, so it should be a safe upgrade. For all the details see http://doc.powerdns.com/html/changelog.html#changelog-recursor-3.6.1- additional changes from 3.6.0 This is a performance, feature and bugfix update to 3.5/3.5.3. It contains important fixes for slightly broken domain names, which your users expect to work anyhow. It also brings robust resilience against certain classes of attacks. For all the details see http://doc.powerdns.com/html/changelog.html#changelog-recursor-3.6.0- refreshed pdns-rec-lua52.patch- replaced pdns-recursor-3.2rc1-strip.patch and pdns-recursor-3.5.3_config.patch with cmdline options on the make commandline.

* Sun May 19 2013 mrueckertAATTsuse.de- update to version 3.5.1 This is a stability and bugfix update to 3.5. It contains important fixes that improve operation for certain domains. This is a stability, security and bugfix update to 3.3/3.3.1. It contains important fixes for slightly broken domain names, which your users expect to work anyhow. For all details see http://doc.powerdns.com/html/changelog.html#changelog-recursor-3.5.1- adapted patches: pdns-rec-lua52.patch pdns-recursor-3.5.1_config.patch- fixed conditional for different lua versions- started some basic support to build packages for non suse distros

* Fri Mar 12 2010 mrueckertAATTsuse.de- update to version 3.2 The 3.2 release is the first major release of the PowerDNS Recursor in a long time. Partly this is because 3.1.7.
* functioned very well, and delivered satisfying performance, partly this is because in order to really move forward, some heavy lifting had to be done. This version of the PowerDNS Recursor contains a rather novel form of lock-free multithreading, a situation that comes close to the old \'--fork\' trick, but allows the Recursor to fully utilize multiple CPUs, while delivering unified statistics and operational control. In effect, this delivers the best of both worlds: near linear scaling, with almost no administrative overhead. http://doc.powerdns.com/changelog.html#CHANGELOG-RECURSOR-3-2- patches dropped: pdns-recursor-3.1.7.1_atomicity.patch pdns-recursor-3.1.7.1_lua.patch- patches refreshed for the update: old name: pdns-recursor-3.1.7.1-strip.patch new name: pdns-recursor-3.2rc1-strip.patch old name: pdns-recursor-3.1.7.2_config.patch new name: pdns-recursor-3.2_config.patch
* Fri Jan 08 2010 mrueckertAATTsuse.de- update to version 3.1.7.2 This release consist of a number of vital security updates. These updates address issues that can in all likelihood lead to a full system compromise. In addition, it is possible for third parties to pollute your cache with dangerous data, exposing your users to possible harm. http://rtfm.powerdns.com/powerdns-advisory-2010-01.html http://rtfm.powerdns.com/powerdns-advisory-2010-02.html CVE-2009-4009
* Wed Nov 11 2009 mrueckertAATTsuse.de- update to version 3.1.7.1 This release consists entirely of fixes for tiny bugs that have been reported over the past year. In addition, compatibility has been restored with the latest versions of the gcc compiler and the \'boost\' libraries. No features have been added, but some debugging code that very slightly impacted performance (and polluted the console when operating in the foreground) has been removed. - Improved error messages when parsing zones for authoritative serving (commit 1235). - Better resilience against whitespace in configuration (changesets 1237, 1240, 1242) - Slight performance increase (commit 1378) - Fix rare case where timeouts were not being reported to the right query-thread (commit 1260) - Fix compilation against newer versions of the Boost C++ libraries (commit 1381) - Close very rare issue with TCP/IP close reporting ECONNRESET on FreeBSD. Reported by Andrei Poelov in ticket 192. - Silence debugging output (commit 1286). - Fix compilation against newer versions of gcc (commit 1384) - No longer set export-etc-hosts to \'on\' on reload-zones. Discovered by Paul Cairney, closes ticket 225. - Sane default for the maximum cache size in the Recursor, suggested by Roel van der Made (commit 1354). - No longer exit because of the changed behaviour of the Solaris \'completion ports\' in more recent versions of Solaris. Fix in commit 1372, reported by Jan Gyselinck- update to version 3.1.7 This version contains powerful scripting abilities, allowing operators to modify DNS responses in many interesting ways. Among other things, these abilities can be used to filter out malware domains, to perform load balancing, to comply with legal and other requirements and finally, to implement \'NXDOMAIN\' redirection. It is hoped that the addition of Lua scripting will enable responsible DNS modification for those that need it. For more details about the Lua scripting, which can be modified, loaded and unloaded at runtime, see Section 12.6. Many thanks are due to the #lua irc channel, for excellent near-realtime Lua support. In addition, a number of PowerDNS users have been enthousiastically testing prereleases of the scripting support, and have found and solved many issues. - In 3.1.5 and 3.1.6, an authoritative server could continue to renew its authority, even though a domain had been delegated to other servers in the meantime. - In the rare cases where this happened, and the old servers were not shut down, the observed effect is that users were fed outdated data. - Bug spotted and analysed by Darren Gamble, fix in commit 1182 and commit 1183. - Thanks to long time PowerDNS contributor Stefan Arentz, for the first time, Mac OS X 10.5 users can compile and run the PowerDNS Recursor! Patch in commit 1185. - Sten Spans spotted that for outgoing TCP/IP queries, the query-local-address setting was not honored. Fixed in commit 1190. - rec_control wipe-cache now also wipes domains from the negative cache, hurrying up the expiry of negatively cached records. Suggested by Simon Kirby, implemented in commit 1204. - When a forwarder server is configured for a domain, using the forward-zones setting, this server IP address was filtered using the dont-query setting, which is generally not what is desired: the server to which queries are forwarded will often live in private IP space, and the operator should be trusted to know what he is doing. Reported and argued by Simon Kirby, fix in commit 1211. - Marcus Rueckert of OpenSUSE reported that very recent gcc versions emitted a (correct) warning on an overly complicated line in syncres.cc, fixed in commit 1189. - Stefan Schmidt discovered that the netmask matching code, used by the new Lua scripts, but also by all other parts of PowerDNS, had problems with explicit \'/32\' matches. Fixed in commit 1205.- added pdns-recursor-3.1.7.1_lua.patch fix linking with lua- dropping patches included upstream: pdns-recursor-3.1.4_char_casting.patch pdns-recursor-3.1.4_r965.patch pdns-recursor-3.1.4_gcc43.patch- refreshed patches: old: pdns-recursor-3.1.3-strip.patch new: pdns-recursor-3.1.7.1-strip.patch old: pdns-recursor-3.1.4_atomicity.patch new: pdns-recursor-3.1.7.1_atomicity.patch old: pdns-recursor-3.1.4_config.patch new: pdns-recursor-3.1.7.1_config.patch
