Download Unbound 1.14.0

When you perform a dns lookup, a recursor initially starts by asking the lookup query to a dns root server. This can then redirect to other servers, from where it can redirect to other servers and so on, until finally a server is reached that knows the answer or knows that the look-up is not possible. The latter can be the case if the name does not exist or the servers do not respond. The process of going through different authoritative servers is called recursion. Unbound is a dns recursor with support for modern standards such as Query Name Minimization† Aggressive Use of Dnssec-Validated Cache and authority zones† The developers have released version 1.14.0 with the following changes and improvements:

New Features:

• merge #401: RPZ triggers. This add additional RPZ triggers, unbound supports a full set of rpz triggers, and this now includes nsdname, nsip and clientip triggers. Also actions are fully supported, and this now includes the tcp-only action.
• merge #519: Support for selective enabling tcp-upstream for stub/forward zones.
• Merge PR #514from ziollek: Docker environment for run tests.
• Support using system-wide crypto policies.
• Fix that –with-ssl can use “/usr/include/openssl11” to pass the location of a different openssl version.
• merged #41 from Moritz Schneider: made outbound-msg-retry configurable.
• Implement RFC8375: Special-Use Domain ‘home.arpa.’.
• Merge PR #555 from fobser: Allow interface names as scope-id in IPv6 link-local addresses.

Bug Fixes:

• Add test tool readzone to .gitignore.
• merge #521: Update mini_event.c.
• merge #523: fix: free() call more than once with the same pointer.
• for #519: note stub-tcp-upstream and forward-tcp-upstream in the example configuration file.
• for #519: yacc and lex. And fix python bindings, and test program unbound-dnstap-socket.
• for #519: fix comments for doxygen.
• Fix to print error from unbound-anchor for writing to the key file, also when not verbose.
• for #514: generate configure.
• fix for #431: Squelch permission denied errors for udp connect, and udp send, they are visible at higher verbosity settings.
• Fix zonemd verification of key that is not in DNS but in the zone and needs a chain of trust.
• zonemd, fix order or bogus printout string manipulation.
• Fix to support harden-algo-downgrade for ZONEMD dnssec checks.
• Merge PR #528 from fobser: Make sldns_str2wire_svcparam_buf() static.

• Fix root_anchor test to check with new icannbundle date.
• Fix initialization errors reported by gcc sanitizer.
• Fix lock debug code for gcc sanitizer reports.
• Fix more initialization errors reported by gcc sanitizer.
• Fix crosscompile on windows to work with openssl 3.0.0 the link with ws2_32 needs -l:libssp.a for __strcpy_chk. Also copy results from lib64 directory if needed.
• For crosscompile on windows, detect 64bit stackprotector library.
• Fix crosscompile shell syntax.
• Fix crosscompile windows to use libssp when it exists.

• Fix to remove unused code from rpz resolve client and action function.
• merge #565: unbound.service.in: Disable ProtectKernelTunables again.
