Simon Kelley30858e32017-10-09 22:36:11 +01006version 2.79
7 Fix parsing of CNAME arguments, which are confused by extra spaces.
8 Thanks to Diego Aguirre for spotting the bug.
9
Simon Kelley9d6918d2017-10-13 17:55:09 +010010 Where available, use IP_UNICAST_IF or IPV6_UNICAST_IF to bind
11 upstream servers to an interface, rather than SO_BINDTODEVICE.
12 Thanks to Beniamino Galvani for the patch.
13
Simon Kelley087eb762017-10-30 23:16:54 +000014 Always return a SERVFAIL answer to DNS queries without the
Ville Skyttäfaaf3062018-01-14 17:32:52 +000015 recursion desired bit set, UNLESS acting as an authoritative
Simon Kelley087eb762017-10-30 23:16:54 +000016 DNS server. This avoids a potential route to cache snooping.
17
Simon Kelley8e8b2d62017-10-30 23:21:52 +000018 Add support for Ed25519 signatures in DNSSEC validation.
19
20 No longer support RSA/MD5 signatures in DNSSEC validation,
21 since these are not secure. This behaviour is mandated in
22 RFC-6944.
23
Simon Kelleya6cee692017-12-14 22:40:48 +000024 Fix incorrect error exit code from dhcp_release6 utility.
25 Thanks Gaudenz Steinlin for the bug report.
26
Simon Kelley3c973ad2018-01-14 21:05:37 +000027 Use SIGINT (instead of overloading SIGHUP) to turn on DNSSEC
28 time validation when --dnssec-no-timecheck is in use.
29 Note that this is an incompatible change from earlier releases.
30
Simon Kelley22cd8602018-01-14 22:57:14 +000031 Allow more than one --bridge-interface option to refer to an
32 interface, so that we can use
33 --bridge-interface=int1,alias1
34 --bridge-interface=int1,alias2
35 as an alternative to
36 --bridge-interface=int1,alias1,alias2
37 Thanks to Neil Jerram for work on this.
Simon Kelley4fe67442018-01-19 12:26:08 +000038
39 Fix for DNSSEC with wildcard-derived NSEC records.
40 It's OK for NSEC records to be expanded from wildcards,
41 but in that case, the proof of non-existence is only valid
42 starting at the wildcard name, *.<domain> NOT the name expanded
43 from the wildcard. Without this check it's possible for an
44 attacker to craft an NSEC which wrongly proves non-existence.
45 Thanks to Ralph Dolmans for finding this, and co-ordinating
46 the vulnerability tracking and fix release.
47 CVE-2017-15107 applies.
48
Simon Kelley17214532018-02-14 22:56:09 +000049 Remove special handling of A-for-A DNS queries. These
50 are no longer a significant problem in the global DNS.

52 Thanks to Mattias Hellström for the initial patch.
Simon Kelley4f7bb572018-03-08 18:47:08 +000053
54 Fix failure to delete dynamically created dhcp options
55 from files in -dhcp-optsdir directories. Thanks to
56 Lindgren Fredrik for the bug report.
Simon Kelley6b2b5642018-03-10 18:12:04 +000057
58 Add to --synth-domain the ability to create names using
59 sequential numbers, as well as encodings of IP addresses.
60 For instance,
61 --synth-domain=thekelleys.org.uk,192.168.0.50,192.168.0.70,internal-*
62 creates 21 domain names of the form
63 internal-4.thekelleys.org.uk over the address range given, with
64 internal-0.thekelleys.org.uk being 192.168.0.50 and
65 internal-20.thekelleys.org.uk being 192.168.0.70
66 Thanks to Andy Hawkins for the suggestion.
67
Simon Kelley94b68782018-03-17 18:39:23 +000068 Tidy up Crypto code, removing workarounds for ancient
69 versions of libnettle. We now require libnettle 3.

76 Revert ping-check of address in DHCPDISCOVER if there
77 already exists a lease for the address. Under some
78 circumstances, and netbooted windows installation can reply
79 to pings before if has a DHCP lease and block allocation
80 of the address it already used during netboot. Thanks to
81 Jan Psota for spotting this.
82
83 Fix DHCP relaying, broken in 2.76 and 2.77 by commit
84 ff325644c7afae2588583f935f4ea9b9694eb52e. Thanks to
85 John Fitzgibbon for the diagnosis and patch.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +010090
Simon Kelley63437ff2017-09-06 22:34:21 +010091 Fix regression in 2.77, ironically added as a security
92 improvement, which resulted in a crash when a DNS
93 query exceeded 512 bytes (or the EDNS0 packet size,
94 if different.) Thanks to Christian Kujau, Arne Woerner
95 Juan Manuel Fernandez and Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant for
96 chasing this one down. CVE-2017-13704 applies.
97
Simon Kelley0549c732017-09-25 18:17:11 +010098 Fix heap overflow in DNS code. This is a potentially serious
99 security hole. It allows an attacker who can make DNS
100 requests to dnsmasq, and who controls the contents of
101 a domain, which is thereby queried, to overflow
102 (by 2 bytes) a heap buffer and either crash, or
103 even take control of, dnsmasq.
104 CVE-2017-14491 applies.

Simon Kelley24036ea2017-09-25 18:47:15 +0100109 Fix heap overflow in IPv6 router advertisement code.
110 This is a potentially serious security hole, as a
111 crafted RA request can overflow a buffer and crash or
112 control dnsmasq. Attacker must be on the local network.
113 CVE-2017-14492 applies.
114 Credit to Felix Wilhelm, Fermin J. Serna, Gabriel Campana
115 and Kevin Hamacher of the Google Security Team for
116 finding this.
Simon Kelley3d4ff1b2017-09-25 18:52:50 +0100117
118 Fix stack overflow in DHCPv6 code. An attacker who can send
119 a DHCPv6 request to dnsmasq can overflow the stack frame and
120 crash or control dnsmasq.
121 CVE-2017-14493 applies.

Simon Kelley33e3f102017-09-25 20:05:11 +0100125
126 Fix information leak in DHCPv6. A crafted DHCPv6 packet can
127 cause dnsmasq to forward memory from outside the packet
128 buffer to a DHCPv6 server when acting as a relay.
129 CVE-2017-14494 applies.

Simon Kelley897c1132017-09-25 20:11:58 +0100134 Fix DoS in DNS. Invalid boundary checks in the
135 add_pseudoheader function allows a memcpy call with negative
136 size An attacker which can send malicious DNS queries
137 to dnsmasq can trigger a DoS remotely.
138 dnsmasq is vulnerable only if one of the following option is
139 specified: --add-mac, --add-cpe-id or --add-subnet.
140 CVE-2017-14496 applies.

Simon Kelley51eadb62017-09-25 20:16:50 +0100144
145 Fix out-of-memory Dos vulnerability. An attacker which can
146 send malicious DNS queries to dnsmasq can trigger memory
147 allocations in the add_pseudoheader function
148 The allocated memory is never freed which leads to a DoS
149 through memory exhaustion. dnsmasq is vulnerable only
150 if one of the following option is specified:
151 --add-mac, --add-cpe-id or --add-subnet.
152 CVE-2017-14495 applies.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100159 Generate an error when configured with a CNAME loop,
160 rather than a crash. Thanks to George Metz for
161 spotting this problem.
Simon Kelley903df072017-01-19 17:22:00 +0000162
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100163 Calculate the length of TFTP error reply packet
164 correctly. This fixes a problem when the error
165 message in a TFTP packet exceeds the arbitrary
166 limit of 500 characters. The message was correctly
167 truncated, but not the packet length, so
168 extra data was appended. This is a possible
169 security risk, since the extra data comes from
170 a buffer which is also used for DNS, so that
171 previous DNS queries or replies may be leaked.
172 Thanks to Mozilla for funding the security audit
173 which spotted this bug.
Simon Kelley294d36d2016-07-06 21:30:25 +0100174
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100175 Fix logic error in Linux netlink code. This could
176 cause dnsmasq to enter a tight loop on systems
177 with a very large number of network interfaces.
178 Thanks to Ivan Kokshaysky for the diagnosis and
179 patch.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100211 Fix foobar in rrfilter code, that could cause malformed
212 replies, especially when DNSSEC validation on, and
213 the upstream server returns answer with the RRs in a
214 particular order. The only DNS server known to tickle
215 this is Nominum's. Thanks to Dave Täht for spotting the
216 bug and assisting in the fix.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100318 Add --script-arp and two new functions for the dhcp-script.
319 These are "arp" and "arp-old" which announce the arrival and
320 removal of entries in the ARP or neighbour tables.
Simon Kelley1e505122016-01-25 21:29:23 +0000321
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100322 Extend --add-mac to allow a new encoding of the MAC address
323 as base64, by configuring --add-mac=base64

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100327 Don't crash with divide-by-zero if an IPv6 dhcp-range
328 is declared as a whole /64.
329 (ie xx::0 to xx::ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff)
330 Thanks to Laurent Bendel for spotting this problem.
Simon Kelleyfdc97e12016-02-13 17:47:17 +0000331
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100332 Add support for a TTL parameter in --host-record and
333 --cname.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100337 Add --tftp-mtu option. Thanks to Patrick McLean for the
338 initial patch.
Simon Kelley14ffa072016-04-25 16:36:44 +0100339
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100340 Check return-code of inet_pton() when parsing dhcp-option.
341 Bad addresses could fail to generate errors and result in
342 garbage dhcp-options being sent. Thanks to Marc Branchaud
343 for spotting this.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100345 Fix wrong value for EDNS UDP packet size when using
346 --servers-file to define upstream DNS servers. Thanks to
347 Scott Bonar for the bug report.
Simon Kelley69cbf782016-05-03 21:33:38 +0100348
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100349 Move the dhcp_release and dhcp_lease_time tools from

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100352 Add dhcp_release6 to contrib/lease-tools. Many thanks
353 to Sergey Nechaev for this code.
Simon Kelley68bea102016-05-11 22:15:06 +0100354
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100355 To avoid filling logs in configurations which define
356 many upstream nameservers, don't log more that 30 servers.
357 The number to be logged can be changed as SERVERS_LOGGED
358 in src/config.h.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100360 Swap the values if BC_EFI and x86-64_EFI in --pxe-service.
361 These were previously wrong due to an error in RFC 4578.
362 If you're using BC_EFI to boot 64-bit EFI machines, you
363 will need to update your config.
Simon Kelley0a4a0492016-05-15 20:13:45 +0100364
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100365 Add ARM32_EFI and ARM64_EFI as valid architectures in
366 --pxe-service.
Simon Kelley0a4a0492016-05-15 20:13:45 +0100367
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100368 Fix PXE booting for UEFI architectures. Modify PXE boot
369 sequence in this case to force the client to talk to dnsmasq
370 over port 4011. This makes PXE and especially proxy-DHCP PXE
371 work with these architectures.
Simon Kelley0a4a0492016-05-15 20:13:45 +0100372
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100373 Workaround problems with UEFI PXE clients. There exist
374 in the wild PXE clients which have problems with PXE
375 boot menus. To work around this, when there's a single
376 --pxe-service which applies to client, then that target
377 will be booted directly, rather then sending a
378 single-item boot menu.
379
380 Many thanks to Jarek Polok, Michael Kuron and Dreamcat4
381 for their work on the long-standing UEFI PXE problem.
382
383 Subtle change in the semantics of "basename" in
384 --pxe-service. The historical behaviour has always been
385 that the actual filename downloaded from the TFTP server
386 is <basename>.<layer> where <layer> is an integer which
387 corresponds to the layer parameter supplied by the client.
388 It's not clear what the function of the "layer"
389 actually is in the PXE protocol, and in practise layer
390 is always zero, so the filename is <basename>.0
391 The new behaviour is the same as the old, except when
392 <basename> includes a file suffix, in which case
393 the layer suffix is no longer added. This allows
394 sensible suffices to be used, rather then the
395 meaningless ".0". Only in the unlikely event that you
396 have a config with a basename which already has a
397 suffix, is this an incompatible change, since the file
398 downloaded will change from name.suffix.0 to just
399 name.suffix

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100403 Fix reversion on 2.74 which caused 100% CPU use when a
404 dhcp-script is configured. Thanks to Adrian Davey for

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100409 Fix reversion in 2.73 where --conf-file would attempt to
410 read the default file, rather than no file.
Simon Kelley90cb2222015-07-05 21:59:10 +0100411
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100412 Fix inotify code to handle dangling symlinks better and
413 not SEGV in some circumstances.
Simon Kelley362c9302015-07-06 21:48:49 +0100414
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100415 DNSSEC fix. In the case of a signed CNAME generated by a
416 wildcard which pointed to an unsigned domain, the wrong
417 status would be logged, and some necessary checks omitted.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100421 Fix crash at startup when an empty suffix is supplied to
422 --conf-dir, also trivial memory leak. Thanks to
423 Tomas Hozza for spotting this.
Simon Kelley800c5cc2014-12-15 17:50:15 +0000424
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100425 Remove floor of 4096 on advertised EDNS0 packet size when
426 DNSSEC in use, the original rationale for this has long gone.
427 Thanks to Anders Kaseorg for spotting this.
Simon Kelley800c5cc2014-12-15 17:50:15 +0000428
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100429 Use inotify for checking on updates to /etc/resolv.conf and
430 friends under Linux. This fixes race conditions when the files are
431 updated rapidly and saves CPU by noy polling. To build
432 a binary that runs on old Linux kernels without inotify,
433 use make COPTS=-DNO_INOTIFY
Simon Kelley3ad3f3b2014-12-16 18:25:17 +0000434
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100435 Fix breakage of --domain=<domain>,<subnet>,local - only reverse
436 queries were intercepted. THis appears to have been broken
437 since 2.69. Thanks to Josh Stone for finding the bug.
Simon Kelley47669362014-12-17 12:41:56 +0000438
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100439 Eliminate IPv6 privacy addresses and deprecated addresses from
440 the answers given by --interface-name. Note that reverse queries
441 (ie looking for names, given addresses) are not affected.
442 Thanks to Michael Gorbach for the suggestion.
Simon Kelley094b5c32014-12-21 16:11:52 +0000443
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100444 Fix crash in DNSSEC code with long RRs. Thanks to Marco Davids
445 for the bug report.
Simon Kelley00cd9d52014-10-02 21:44:21 +0100446
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100447 Add --ignore-address option. Ignore replies to A-record
448 queries which include the specified address. No error is
449 generated, dnsmasq simply continues to listen for another
450 reply. This is useful to defeat blocking strategies which
451 rely on quickly supplying a forged answer to a DNS
452 request for certain domains, before the correct answer can
453 arrive. Thanks to Glen Huang for the patch.
Simon Kelley25cf5e32015-01-09 15:53:03 +0000454
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100455 Revisit the part of DNSSEC validation which determines if an
456 unsigned answer is legit, or is in some part of the DNS
457 tree which should be signed. Dnsmasq now works from the
458 DNS root downward looking for the limit of signed
459 delegations, rather than working bottom up. This is
460 both more correct, and less likely to trip over broken
461 nameservers in the unsigned parts of the DNS tree
462 which don't respond well to DNSSEC queries.
Simon Kelley39341552015-01-18 22:11:10 +0000463
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100464 Add --log-queries=extra option, which makes logs easier
465 to search automatically.
Simon Kelley5f4dc5c2015-01-20 20:51:02 +0000466
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100467 Add --min-cache-ttl option. I've resisted this for a long
468 time, on the grounds that disbelieving TTLs is never a
469 good idea, but I've been persuaded that there are
470 sometimes reasons to do it. (Step forward, GFW).
471 To avoid misuse, there's a hard limit on the TTL
472 floor of one hour. Thanks to RinSatsuki for the patch.
Win King Wan61b838d2015-01-21 20:41:48 +0000473
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100474 Cope with multiple interfaces with the same link-local
475 address. (IPv6 addresses are scoped, so this is allowed.)
476 Thanks to Cory Benfield for help with this.
Simon Kelleyf6e62e22015-03-01 18:17:54 +0000477
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100478 Add --dhcp-hostsdir. This allows addition of new host
479 configurations to a running dnsmasq instance much more
480 cheaply than having dnsmasq re-read all its existing
481 configuration each time.
Stefan Tomanek30d08792015-03-31 22:32:11 +0100482
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100483 Don't reply to DHCPv6 SOLICIT messages if we're not
484 configured to do stateful DHCPv6. Thanks to Win King Wan

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100489 Add --dnssec-timestamp option, which provides an automatic
490 way to detect when the system time becomes valid after
491 boot on systems without an RTC, whilst allowing DNS
492 queries before the clock is valid so that NTP can run.
493 Thanks to Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant for developing this idea.
Simon Kelley38440b22015-04-12 21:52:47 +0100494
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100495 Add --tftp-no-fail option. Thanks to Stefan Tomanek for

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100498 Fix crash caused by looking up servers.bind, CHAOS text
499 record, when more than about five --servers= lines are
500 in the dnsmasq config. This causes memory corruption
501 which causes a crash later. Thanks to Matt Coddington for
502 sterling work chasing this down.
Simon Kelleya5ae1f82015-04-25 21:46:10 +0100503
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100504 Fix crash on receipt of certain malformed DNS requests.
505 Thanks to Nick Sampanis for spotting the problem.
506 Note that this is could allow the dnsmasq process's
507 memory to be read by an attacker under certain
508 circumstances, so it has a CVE, CVE-2015-3294
Simon Kelley78c61842015-04-16 15:05:30 +0100509
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100510 Fix crash in authoritative DNS code, if a .arpa zone
511 is declared as authoritative, and then a PTR query which
512 is not to be treated as authoritative arrived. Normally,
513 directly declaring .arpa zone as authoritative is not
514 done, so this crash wouldn't be seen. Instead the
515 relevant .arpa zone should be specified as a subnet
516 in the auth-zone declaration. Thanks to Johnny S. Lee
517 for the bugreport and initial patch.
Simon Kelleya77cec82015-05-08 16:25:38 +0100518
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100519 Fix authoritative DNS code to correctly reply to NS
520 and SOA queries for .arpa zones for which we are
521 declared authoritative by means of a subnet in auth-zone.
522 Previously we provided correct answers to PTR queries
523 in such zones (including NS and SOA) but not direct
524 NS and SOA queries. Thanks to Johnny S. Lee for
525 pointing out the problem.
Simon Kelleyb059c962015-05-08 20:25:51 +0100526
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100527 Fix logging of DHCPREPLY which should be suppressed

529 spotting the problem.
Simon Kelleyca85a282015-05-13 22:33:04 +0100530
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100531 Try and handle net connections with broken fragmentation
532 that lose large UDP packets. If a server times out,
533 reduce the maximum UDP packet size field in the EDNS0
534 header to 1280 bytes. If it then answers, make that
535 change permanent.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100580 Add a mode which detects and removes DNS forwarding loops, ie
581 a query sent to an upstream server returns as a new query to
582 dnsmasq, and would therefore be forwarded again, resulting in
583 a query which loops many times before being dropped. Upstream
584 servers which loop back are disabled and this event is logged.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100662 To enable, DNSSEC, you will need a set of
663 trust-anchors. Now that the TLDs are signed, this can be
664 the keys for the root zone, and for convenience they are
665 included in trust-anchors.conf in the dnsmasq
666 distribution. You should of course check that these are
667 legitimate and up-to-date. So, adding
Simon Kelleyc8a80482014-03-05 14:29:54 +0000668
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100669 conf-file=/path/to/trust-anchors.conf
670 dnssec
Simon Kelley604f7592014-03-22 19:33:43 +0000671
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100672 to your config is all that's needed to get things
673 working. The upstream nameservers have to be DNSSEC-capable
674 too, of course. Many ISP nameservers aren't, but the
675 Google public nameservers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) are.
676 When DNSSEC is configured, dnsmasq validates any queries
677 for domains which are signed. Query results which are
678 bogus are replaced with SERVFAIL replies, and results
679 which are correctly signed have the AD bit set. In
680 addition, and just as importantly, dnsmasq supplies
681 correct DNSSEC information to clients which are doing
682 their own validation, and caches DNSKEY, DS and RRSIG
683 records, which significantly improve the performance of
684 downstream validators. Setting --log-queries will show
685 DNSSEC in action.
Simon Kelley10068602014-04-03 21:16:40 +0100686
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100687 If a domain is returned from an upstream nameserver without
688 DNSSEC signature, dnsmasq by default trusts this. This
689 means that for unsigned zone (still the majority) there
690 is effectively no cost for having DNSSEC enabled. Of course
691 this allows an attacker to replace a signed record with a
692 false unsigned record. This is addressed by the
693 --dnssec-check-unsigned flag, which instructs dnsmasq
694 to prove that an unsigned record is legitimate, by finding
695 a secure proof that the zone containing the record is not
696 signed. Doing this has costs (typically one or two extra
697 upstream queries). It also has a nasty failure mode if
698 dnsmasq's upstream nameservers are not DNSSEC capable.
699 Without --dnssec-check-unsigned using such an upstream
700 server will simply result in not queries being validated;
701 with --dnssec-check-unsigned enabled and a
702 DNSSEC-ignorant upstream server, _all_ queries will fail.
703
704 Note that DNSSEC requires that the local time is valid and
705 accurate, if not then DNSSEC validation will fail. NTP
706 should be running. This presents a problem for routers
707 without a battery-backed clock. To set the time needs NTP
708 to do DNS lookups, but lookups will fail until NTP has run.
709 To address this, there's a flag, --dnssec-no-timecheck
710 which disables the time checks (only) in DNSSEC. When dnsmasq
711 is started and the clock is not synced, this flag should
712 be used. As soon as the clock is synced, SIGHUP dnsmasq.
713 The SIGHUP clears the cache of partially-validated data and
714 resets the no-timecheck flag, so that all DNSSEC checks
715 henceforward will be complete.
716
717 The development of DNSSEC in dnsmasq was started by
718 Giovanni Bajo, to whom huge thanks are owed. It has been
719 supported by Comcast, whose techfund grant has allowed for
720 an invaluable period of full-time work to get it to
721 a workable state.
722
723 Add --rev-server. Thanks to Dave Taht for suggesting this.
724
725 Add --servers-file. Allows dynamic update of upstream servers
726 full access to configuration.
727
728 Add --local-service. Accept DNS queries only from hosts
729 whose address is on a local subnet, ie a subnet for which
730 an interface exists on the server. This option
731 only has effect if there are no --interface --except-interface,
732 --listen-address or --auth-server options. It is intended
733 to be set as a default on installation, to allow
734 unconfigured installations to be useful but also safe from
735 being used for DNS amplification attacks.
736
737 Fix crashes in cache_get_cname_target() when dangling CNAMEs
738 encountered. Thanks to Andy and the rt-n56u project for
739 find this and helping to chase it down.
740
741 Fix wrong RCODE in authoritative DNS replies to PTR queries. The
742 correct answer was included, but the RCODE was set to NXDOMAIN.
743 Thanks to Craig McQueen for spotting this.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100765 Allow subnet specifications in --auth-zone to be interface
766 names as well as address literals. This makes it possible
767 to configure authoritative DNS when local address ranges
768 are dynamic and works much better than the previous
769 work-around which exempted constructed DHCP ranges from the
770 IP address filtering. As a consequence, that work-around
771 is removed. Under certain circumstances, this change wil
772 break existing configuration: if you're relying on the
773 constructed-range exception, you need to change --auth-zone
774 to specify the same interface as is used to construct your
775 DHCP ranges, probably with a trailing "/6" like this:
776 --auth-zone=example.com,eth0/6 to limit the addresses to
777 IPv6 addresses of eth0.

792 isn't possible for IPv4 and can generate scary warnings,
793 but as it's always possible for IPv6 (the API always
794 exists) then we should do it always.
795
796 Tweak the rules on prefix-lengths in --dhcp-range for

808 lease-time information in the reply to DHCPINFORM
809 requests, on the correct grounds that it was a standards
810 violation. However, this broke the dnsmasq-specific
811 dhcp_lease_time utility. Now, DHCPINFORM returns
812 lease-time only if it's specifically requested
813 (maintaining standards) and the dhcp_lease_time utility

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100826 Handle IPv4 interface-address labels in Linux. These are
827 often used to emulate the old IP-alias addresses. Before,
828 using --interface=eth0 would service all the addresses of
829 eth0, including ones configured as aliases, which appear
830 in ifconfig as eth0:0. Now, only addresses with the label
831 eth0 are active. This is not backwards compatible: if you
832 want to continue to bind the aliases too, you need to add
833 eg. --interface=eth0:0 to the config.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100922 Remove the rule for constructed DHCP ranges that the local
923 address must be either the first or last address in the
924 range. This was originally to avoid SLAAC addresses, but
925 we now explicitly autoconfig and privacy addresses instead.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100934 Add --ra-param option. Thanks to Vladislav Grishenko for
935 inspiration on this.
Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant8c0b73d2013-10-11 11:56:33 +0100936
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100937 Add --add-subnet configuration, to tell upstream DNS
938 servers where the original client is. Thanks to DNSthingy
939 for sponsoring this feature.
Simon Kelleyd56a6042013-10-11 14:39:03 +0100940
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100941 Add --quiet-dhcp, --quiet-dhcp6 and --quiet-ra. Thanks to
942 Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant for the initial patch.
Simon Kelley24b5a5d2013-10-11 15:19:28 +0100943
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100944 Allow A/AAAA records created by --interface-name to be the
945 target of --cname. Thanks to Hadmut Danisch for the
946 suggestion.
Simon Kelley45cca582013-10-15 10:20:13 +0100947
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100948 Avoid treating a --dhcp-host which has an IPv6 address
949 as eligible for use with DHCPv4 on the grounds that it has
950 no address, and vice-versa. Thanks to Yury Konovalov for
951 spotting the problem.

Simon Kelley333b2ce2013-01-07 21:46:03 +0000957version 2.66
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100958 Add the ability to act as an authoritative DNS
959 server. Dnsmasq can now answer queries from the wider 'net
960 with local data, as long as the correct NS records are set
961 up. Only local data is provided, to avoid creating an open
962 DNS relay. Zone transfer is supported, to allow secondary
963 servers to be configured.
Simon Kelley333b2ce2013-01-07 21:46:03 +0000964
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100965 Add "constructed DHCP ranges" for DHCPv6. This is intended
966 for IPv6 routers which get prefixes dynamically via prefix
967 delegation. With suitable configuration, stateful DHCPv6
968 and RA can happen automatically as prefixes are delegated
969 and then deprecated, without having to re-write the
970 dnsmasq configuration file or restart the daemon. Thanks to
971 Steven Barth for extensive testing and development work on
972 this idea.
Simon Kelley71c73ac2013-01-08 21:22:24 +0000973
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100974 Fix crash on startup on Solaris 11. Regression probably
975 introduced in 2.61. Thanks to Geoff Johnstone for the
976 patch.
Simon Kelley22ce5502013-01-22 13:53:04 +0000977
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100978 Add code to make behaviour for TCP DNS requests that same
979 as for UDP requests, when a request arrives for an allowed
980 address, but via a banned interface. This change is only
981 active on Linux, since the relevant API is missing (AFAIK)
982 on other platforms. Many thanks to Tomas Hozza for
983 spotting the problem, and doing invaluable discovery of
984 the obscure and undocumented API required for the solution.
Simon Kelleya21e27b2013-02-17 16:41:35 +0000985
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100986 Don't send the default DHCP option advertising dnsmasq as
987 the local DNS server if dnsmasq is configured to not act
988 as DNS server, or it's configured to a non-standard port.
Simon Kelley4038ae22013-02-19 16:47:07 +0000989
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100990 Add DNSMASQ_CIRCUIT_ID, DNSMASQ_SUBSCRIBER_ID,
991 DNSMASQ_REMOTE_ID variables to the environment of the
992 lease-change script (and the corresponding Lua). These hold
993 information inserted into the DHCP request by a DHCP relay
994 agent. Thanks to Lakefield Communications for providing a
995 bounty for this addition.
Jason A. Donenfeld13d86c72013-02-22 18:20:53 +0000996
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100997 Fixed crash, introduced in 2.64, whilst handling DHCPv6

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001011 Handle the situation where libc headers define
1012 SO_REUSEPORT, but the kernel in use doesn't, to cope with
1013 the introduction of this option to Linux. Thanks to Rich
1014 Felker for the bug report.
1015
1016 Update Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
1017
1018 Fix crash if the configured DHCP lease limit is

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001026 Fix regression which broke forwarding of queries sent via
1027 TCP which are not for A and AAAA and which were directed to
1028 non-default servers. Thanks to Niax for the bug report.
Simon Kelleyee86ce62012-12-07 11:54:46 +00001029
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001030 Fix failure to build with DHCP support excluded. Thanks to

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001037 Handle DHCP FQDN options with all flag bits zero and
1038 --dhcp-client-update set. Thanks to Bernd Krumbroeck for
1039 spotting the problem.
Simon Kelley2e34ac12012-08-29 14:15:25 +01001040
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001041 Finesse the check for /etc/hosts names which conflict with
1042 DHCP names. Previously a name/address pair in /etc/hosts
1043 which didn't match the name/address of a DHCP lease would
1044 generate a warning. Now that only happens if there is not
1045 also a match. This allows multiple addresses for a name in
1046 /etc/hosts with one of them assigned via DHCP.
Simon Kelley12d71ed2012-08-30 15:16:41 +01001047
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001048 Fix broken vendor-option processing for BOOTP. Thanks to

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001073 Set SO_REUSEADDRESS and SO_V6ONLY options on the DHCPv6
1074 socket, this allows multiple instances of dnsmasq on a
1075 single machine, in the same way as for DHCPv4. Thanks to
1076 Gene Czarcinski and Vladislav Grishenko for work on this.
Simon Kelley20223102012-10-15 10:41:17 +01001077
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001078 Fix DHCPv6 to do access control correctly when it's
1079 configured with --listen-address. Thanks to
1080 Gene Czarcinski for sorting this out.

1084 DHCPv6. Thanks to Vladislav Grishenko for the patch.
Simon Kelley819ff4d2012-10-21 18:25:12 +01001085
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001086 Don't include lease-time in DHCPACK replies to DHCPINFORM

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001093 Check interface for outgoing unsolicited router
1094 advertisements, rather than relying on interface address
1095 configuration. Thanks to Gene Czarinski for the patch.
Simon Kelley29d28dd2012-12-03 14:05:59 +00001096
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001097 Handle better attempts to transmit on interfaces which are
1098 still doing DAD, and specifically do not just transmit
1099 without setting source address and interface, since this
1100 can cause very puzzling effects when a router
1101 advertisement goes astray. Thanks again to Gene Czarinski.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001113 Allow more than one --tfp-root flag. The per-interface
1114 stuff is pointless without that.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001116 Add --bind-dynamic. A hybrid mode between the default and

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001123 Remove the interface:<interface> argument in --dhcp-range, and
1124 the interface argument to --enable-tftp. These were a
1125 still-born attempt to allow automatic isolated
1126 configuration by libvirt, but have never (to my knowledge)
1127 been used, had very strange semantics, and have been
1128 superseded by other mechanisms.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001130 Fixed bug logging filenames when duplicate dhcp-host

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001138 Teach DHCPv6 about the RFC 4242 information-refresh-time
1139 option, and add parsing if the minutes, hours and days
1140 format for options. Thanks to Francois-Xavier Le Bail for
1141 the suggestion.
Simon Kelley42243212012-07-20 15:19:18 +01001142
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001143 Allow "w" (for week) as multiplier in lease times, as well
1144 as seconds, minutes, hours and days. Álvaro Gámez Machado
1145 spotted the omission.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001183 Re-write interface discovery code on *BSD to use
1184 getifaddrs. This is more portable, more straightforward,
1185 and allows us to find the prefix length for IPv6
1186 addresses.
Simon Kelleyeabc6dd2012-03-07 20:28:20 +00001187
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001188 Add ra-names, ra-stateless and slaac keywords for DHCPv6.
1189 Dnsmasq can now synthesise AAAA records for dual-stack
1190 hosts which get IPv6 addresses via SLAAC. It is also now
1191 possible to use SLAAC and stateless DHCPv6, and to
1192 tell clients to use SLAAC addresses as well as DHCP ones.
1193 Thanks to Dave Taht for help with this.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001197 Explicitly send DHCPv6 replies to the correct port, instead
1198 of relying on clients to send requests with the correct
1199 source address, since at least one client in the wild gets
1200 this wrong. Thanks to Conrad Kostecki for help tracking
1201 this down.
Simon Kelleyeabc6dd2012-03-07 20:28:20 +00001202
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001203 Send a preference value of 255 in DHCPv6 replies when
1204 --dhcp-authoritative is in effect. This tells clients not
1205 to wait around for other DHCP servers.
Simon Kelley8643ec72012-03-12 20:04:14 +00001206
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001207 Better logging of DHCPv6 options.
Simon Kelley8643ec72012-03-12 20:04:14 +00001208
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001209 Add --host-record. Thanks to Rob Zwissler for the
1210 suggestion.
Simon Kelleye759d422012-03-16 13:18:57 +00001211
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001212 Invoke the DHCP script with action "tftp" when a TFTP file
1213 transfer completes. The size of the file, address to which
1214 it was sent and complete pathname are supplied. Note that
1215 version 2.60 introduced some script incompatibilities
1216 associated with DHCPv6, and this is a further change. To
1217 be safe, scripts should ignore unknown actions, and if
1218 not IPv6-aware, should exit if the environment
1219 variable DNSMASQ_IAID is set. The use-case for this is
1220 to track netboot/install. Suggestion from Shantanu
1221 Gadgil.
Simon Kelleya9530962012-03-20 22:07:35 +00001222
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001223 Update contrib/port-forward/dnsmasq-portforward to reflect
1224 the above.
Simon Kelleya9530962012-03-20 22:07:35 +00001225
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001226 Set the environment variable DNSMASQ_LOG_DHCP when running
1227 the script id --log-dhcp is in effect, so that script can
1228 taylor their logging verbosity. Suggestion from Malte
1229 Forkel.
Simon Kelleya9530962012-03-20 22:07:35 +00001230
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001231 Arrange that addresses specified with --listen-address
1232 work even if there is no interface carrying the
1233 address. This is chiefly useful for IPv4 loopback
1234 addresses, where any address in 127.0.0.0/8 is a valid
1235 loopback address, but normally only 127.0.0.1 appears on
1236 the lo interface. Thanks to Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre for
1237 the idea and initial patch.
Simon Kelley7d2b5c92012-03-23 10:00:02 +00001238
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001239 Fix crash, introduced in 2.60, when a DHCPINFORM is
1240 received from a network which has no valid dhcp-range.
1241 Thanks to Stephane Glondu for the bug report.
Simon Kelleyc8257542012-03-28 21:15:41 +01001242
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001243 Add a new DHCP lease time keyword, "deprecated" for
1244 --dhcp-range. This is only valid for IPv6, and sets the
1245 preferred lease time for both DHCP and RA to zero. The
1246 effect is that clients can continue to use the address
1247 for existing connections, but new connections will use
1248 other addresses, if they exist. This makes hitless
1249 renumbering at least possible.
Simon Kelley18f0fb02012-03-31 21:18:55 +01001250
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001251 Fix bug in address6_available() which caused DHCPv6 lease

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001261 Don't cache data from non-recursive nameservers, since it
1262 may erroneously look like a valid CNAME to a non-existent
1263 name. Thanks to Ben Winslow for finding this.
Simon Kelleyd1c759c2012-04-16 17:26:19 +01001264
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001265 Call SO_BINDTODEVICE on the DHCP socket(s) when doing DHCP
1266 on exactly one interface and --bind-interfaces is set. This
1267 makes the OpenStack use-case of one dnsmasq per virtual
1268 interface work. This is only available on Linux; it's not
1269 supported on other platforms. Thanks to Vishvananda Ishaya
1270 and the OpenStack team for the suggestion.

1278 patch.
1279
1280 Ensure that the DBus DhcpLeaseUpdated events are generated
1281 when a lease goes through INIT_REBOOT state, even if the
1282 dhcp-script is not in use. Thanks to Antoaneta-Ecaterina
1283 Ene for the patch.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001293 Fix DHCP when using --listen-address with an IP address
1294 which is not the primary address of an interface.
Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001295
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001296 Add --dhcp-client-update option.
Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001297
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001298 Add Lua integration. Dnsmasq can now execute a DHCP
1299 lease-change script written in Lua. This needs to be
1300 enabled at compile time by setting HAVE_LUASCRIPT in
1301 src/config.h or running "make COPTS=-DHAVE_LUASCRIPT"
1302 Thanks to Jan-Piet Mens for the idea and proof-of-concept
1303 implementation.
Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001304
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001305 Tidied src/config.h to distinguish between
1306 platform-dependent compile-time options which are selected
1307 automatically, and builder-selectable compile time
1308 options. Document the latter better, and describe how to
1309 set them from the make command line.
Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001310
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001311 Tidied up IPPROTO_IP/SOL_IP (and IPv6 equivalent)
1312 confusion. IPPROTO_IP works everywhere now.
Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001313
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001314 Set TOS on DHCP sockets, this improves things on busy
1315 wireless networks. Thanks to Dave Taht for the patch.

1321 containing many distinct addresses.
Simon Kelley9bbc8872012-02-09 21:33:09 +00001322
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001323 Fix problem if dnsmasq is started without the stdin,
1324 stdout and stderr file descriptors open. This can manifest
1325 itself as 100% CPU use. Thanks to Chris Moore for finding
1326 this.
Simon Kelley751d6f42012-02-10 15:24:51 +00001327
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001328 Fix shell-scripting bug in bld/pkg-wrapper. Thanks to
1329 Mark Mitchell for the patch.
Simon Kelleyb36ae192012-02-13 12:54:34 +00001330
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001331 Allow the TFP server or boot server in --pxe-service, to
1332 be a domain name instead of an IP address. This allows for
1333 round-robin to multiple servers, in the same way as
1334 --dhcp-boot. A good suggestion from Cristiano Cumer.
Simon Kelley1adadf52012-02-13 22:15:58 +00001335
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001336 Support BUILDDIR variable in the Makefile. Allows builds
1337 for multiple archs from the same source tree with eg.
1338 make BUILDDIR=linux (relative to dnsmasq tree)
1339 make BUILDDIR=/tmp/openbsd (absolute path)
1340 If BUILDDIR is not set, compilation happens in the src
1341 directory, as before. Suggestion from Mark Mitchell.
Simon Kelleyac8540c2012-02-26 20:57:31 +00001342
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001343 Support DHCPv6. Support is there for the sort of things
1344 the existing v4 server does, including tags, options,
1345 static addresses and relay support. Missing is prefix
1346 delegation, which is probably not required in the dnsmasq
1347 niche, and an easy way to accept prefix delegations from
1348 an upstream DHCPv6 server, which is. Future plans include
1349 support for DHCPv6 router option and MAC address option
1350 (to make selecting clients by MAC address work like IPv4).
1351 These will be added as the standards mature.
1352 This code has been tested, but this is the first release,
1353 so don't bet the farm on it just yet. Many thanks to all
1354 testers who have got it this far.
Simon Kelley552af8b2012-02-29 20:10:31 +00001355
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001356 Support IPv6 router advertisements. This is a
1357 simple-minded implementation, aimed at providing the
1358 vestigial RA needed to go alongside IPv6. Is picks up
1359 configuration from the DHCPv6 conf, and should just need
1360 enabling with --enable-ra.
1361
1362 Fix long-standing wrinkle with --localise-queries that
1363 could result in wrong answers when DNS packets arrive
1364 via an interface other than the expected one. Thanks to
1365 Lorenzo Milesi and John Hanks for spotting this one.
1366
1367 Update French translation. Thanks to Gildas Le Nadan.
1368
1369 Update Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.

Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001372version 2.59
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001373 Fix regression in 2.58 which caused failure to start up
1374 with some combinations of dnsmasq config and IPv6 kernel
1375 network config. Thanks to Brielle Bruns for the bug
1376 report.
Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001377
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001378 Improve dnsmasq's behaviour when network interfaces are
1379 still doing duplicate address detection (DAD). Previously,
1380 dnsmasq would wait up to 20 seconds at start-up for the
1381 DAD state to terminate. This is broken for bridge
1382 interfaces on recent Linux kernels, which don't start DAD
1383 until the bridge comes up, and so can take arbitrary
1384 time. The new behaviour lets dnsmasq poll for an arbitrary
1385 time whilst providing service on other interfaces. Thanks
1386 to Stephen Hemminger for pointing out the problem.
Simon Kelley74c95c22011-10-19 09:33:39 +01001387
1388
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001389version 2.58
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001390 Provide a definition of the SA_SIZE macro where it's
1391 missing. Fixes build failure on openBSD.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001392
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001393 Don't include a zero terminator at the end of messages
1394 sent to /dev/log when /dev/log is a datagram socket.
1395 Thanks to Didier Rabound for spotting the problem.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001396
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001397 Add --dhcp-sequential-ip flag, to force allocation of IP
1398 addresses in ascending order. Note that the default
1399 pseudo-random mode is in general better but some
1400 server-deployment applications need this.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001401
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001402 Fix problem where a server-id of 0.0.0.0 is sent to a
1403 client when a dhcp-relay is in use if a client renews a
1404 lease after dnsmasq restart and before any clients on the
1405 subnet get a new lease. Thanks to Mike Ruiz for assistance
1406 in chasing this one down.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001407
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001408 Don't return NXDOMAIN to an AAAA query if we have CNAME
1409 which points to an A record only: NODATA is the correct
1410 reply in this case. Thanks to Tom Fernandes for spotting
1411 the problem.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001412
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001413 Relax the need to supply a netmask in --dhcp-range for
1414 networks which use a DHCP relay. Whilst this is still
1415 desirable, in the absence of a netmask dnsmasq will use
1416 a default based on the class (A, B, or C) of the address.
1417 This should at least remove a cause of mysterious failure
1418 for people using RFC1918 addresses and relays.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001419
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001420 Add support for Linux conntrack connection marking. If
1421 enabled with --conntrack, the connection mark for incoming
1422 DNS queries will be copied to the outgoing connections
1423 used to answer those queries. This allows clever firewall
1424 and accounting stuff. Only available if dnsmasq is
1425 compiled with HAVE_CONNTRACK and adds a dependency on
1426 libnetfilter-conntrack. Thanks to Ed Wildgoose for the
1427 initial idea, testing and sponsorship of this function.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001428
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001429 Provide a sane error message when someone attempts to
1430 match a tag in --dhcp-host.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001431
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001432 Tweak the behaviour of --domain-needed, to avoid problems
1433 with recursive nameservers downstream of dnsmasq. The new
1434 behaviour only stops A and AAAA queries, and returns
1435 NODATA rather than NXDOMAIN replies.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001436
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001437 Efficiency fix for very large DHCP configurations, thanks
1438 to James Gartrell and Mike Ruiz for help with this.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001439
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001440 Allow the TFTP-server address in --dhcp-boot to be a
1441 domain-name which is looked up in /etc/hosts. This can
1442 give multiple IP addresses which are used round-robin,
1443 thus doing TFTP server load-balancing. Thanks to Sushil
1444 Agrawal for the patch.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001445
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001446 When two tagged dhcp-options for a particular option
1447 number are both valid, use the one which is valid without
1448 a tag from the dhcp-range. Allows overriding of the value
1449 of a DHCP option for a particular host as well as
1450 per-network values. So
1451 --dhcp-range=set:interface1,......
1452 --dhcp-host=set:myhost,.....
1453 --dhcp-option=tag:interface1,option:nis-domain,"domain1"
1454 --dhcp-option=tag:myhost,option:nis-domain,"domain2"
1455 will set the NIS-domain to domain1 for hosts in the range, but
1456 override that to domain2 for a particular host.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001457
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001458 Fix bug which resulted in truncated files and timeouts for
1459 some TFTP transfers. The bug only occurs with netascii
1460 transfers and needs an unfortunate relationship between
1461 file size, blocksize and the number of newlines in the
1462 last block before it manifests itself. Many thanks to
1463 Alkis Georgopoulos for spotting the problem and providing
1464 a comprehensive test-case.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001465
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001466 Fix regression in TFTP server on *BSD platforms introduced
1467 in version 2.56, due to confusion with sockaddr
1468 length. Many thanks to Loic Pefferkorn for finding this.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001469
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001470 Support scope-ids in IPv6 addresses of nameservers from
1471 /etc/resolv.conf and in --server options. Eg
1472 nameserver fe80::202:a412:4512:7bbf%eth0 or
1473 server=fe80::202:a412:4512:7bbf%eth0. Thanks to
1474 Michael Stapelberg for the suggestion.

Simon Kelley572b41e2011-02-18 18:11:18 +00001483
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001484 Provide our own header for the DNS protocol, rather than
1485 relying on arpa/nameser.h. This has proved more or less
1486 defective over the years and the final straw is that it's
1487 effectively empty on Android.
Simon Kelley572b41e2011-02-18 18:11:18 +00001488
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001489 Fix regression in 2.56 which caused hex constants in

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001493 Correct wrong casts of arguments to ctype.h functions,
1494 isdigit(), isxdigit() etc. Thanks to Matthias Andree for
1495 spotting this.
Simon Kelley572b41e2011-02-18 18:11:18 +00001496
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001497 Allow build with IDN support independently from i18n.
1498 IDN support continues to be included automatically
1499 when i18n is included.
1500 'make COPTS=-DHAVE_IDN' is the magic incantation.
Simon Kelley572b41e2011-02-18 18:11:18 +00001501
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001502 Modify check on extraneous command line junk (added in
1503 2.56) so that it doesn't complain about extra _empty_
1504 arguments. Otherwise this breaks libvirt.
Simon Kelley572b41e2011-02-18 18:11:18 +00001505
1506
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001507version 2.56
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001508 Add a patch to allow dnsmasq to get interface names right in a
1509 Solaris zone. Thanks to Dj Padzensky for this.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001510
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001511 Improve data-type parsing heuristics so that
1512 --dhcp-option=option:domain-search,.
1513 treats the value as a string and not an IP address.
1514 Thanks to Clemens Fischer for spotting that.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001515
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001516 Add IPv6 support to the TFTP server. Many thanks to Jan
1517 'RedBully' Seiffert for the patches.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001518
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001519 Log DNS queries at level LOG_INFO, rather then
1520 LOG_DEBUG. This makes things consistent with DHCP
1521 logging. Thanks to Adam Pribyl for spotting the problem.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001522
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001523 Ensure that dnsmasq terminates cleanly when using
1524 --syslog-async even if it cannot make a connection to the
1525 syslogd.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001526
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001527 Add --add-mac option. This is to support currently
1528 experimental DNS filtering facilities. Thanks to Benjamin
1529 Petrin for the original patch.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001530
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001531 Fix bug which meant that tags were ignored in dhcp-range
1532 configuration specifying PXE-proxy service. Thanks to
1533 Cristiano Cumer for spotting this.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001534
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001535 Raise an error if there is extra junk, not part of an
1536 option, on the command line.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001537
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001538 Flag a couple of log messages in cache.c as coming from
1539 the DHCP subsystem. Thanks to Olaf Westrik for the patch.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001540
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001541 Omit timestamps from logs when a) logging to stderr and
1542 b) --keep-in-foreground is set. The logging facility on the
1543 other end of stderr can be assumed to supply them. Thanks
1544 to John Hallam for the patch.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001545
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001546 Don't complain about strings longer than 255 characters in
1547 --txt-record, just split the long strings into 255
1548 character chunks instead.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001549
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001550 Fix crash on double-free. This bug can only happen when
1551 dhcp-script is in use and then only in rare circumstances
1552 triggered by high DHCP transaction rate and a slow
1553 script. Thanks to Ferenc Wagner for finding the problem.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001554
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001555 Only log that a file has been sent by TFTP after the
1556 transfer has completed successfully.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001557
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001558 A good suggestion from Ferenc Wagner: extend
1559 the --domain option to allow this sort of thing:
1560 --domain=thekelleys.org.uk,192.168.0.0/24,local
1561 which automatically creates
1562 --local=/thekelleys.org.uk/
1563 --local=/0.168.192.in-addr.arpa/
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001564
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001565 Tighten up syntax checking of hex constants in the config
1566 file. Thanks to Fred Damen for spotting this.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001567
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001568 Add dnsmasq logo/icon, contributed by Justin Swift. Many
1569 thanks for that.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001570
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001571 Never cache DNS replies which have the 'cd' bit set, or
1572 which result from queries forwarded with the 'cd' bit
1573 set. The 'cd' bit instructs a DNSSEC validating server
1574 upstream to ignore signature failures and return replies
1575 anyway. Without this change it's possible to pollute the
1576 dnsmasq cache with bad data by making a query with the
1577 'cd' bit set and subsequent queries would return this data
1578 without its being marked as suspect. Thanks to Anders
1579 Kaseorg for pointing out this problem.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001580
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001581 Add --proxy-dnssec flag, for compliance with RFC
1582 4035. Dnsmasq will now clear the 'ad' bit in answers returned
1583 from upstream validating nameservers unless this option is
1584 set.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001585
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001586 Allow a filename of "-" for --conf-file to read
1587 stdin. Suggestion from Timothy Redaelli.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001588
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001589 Rotate the order of SRV records in replies, to provide
1590 round-robin load balancing when all the priorities are
1591 equal. Thanks to Peter McKinney for the suggestion.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001592
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001593 Edit
1594 contrib/MacOSX-launchd/uk.org.thekelleys.dnsmasq.plist
1595 so that it doesn't log all queries to a file by
1596 default. Thanks again to Peter McKinney.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001597
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001598 By default, setting an IPv4 address for a domain but not
1599 an IPv6 address causes dnsmasq to return
Ville Skyttäfaaf3062018-01-14 17:32:52 +00001600 a NODATA reply for IPv6 (or vice-versa). So
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001601 --address=/google.com/1.2.3.4 stops IPv6 queries for
1602 *google.com from being forwarded. Make it possible to
1603 override this behaviour by defining the semantics if the
1604 same domain appears in both --server and --address.
1605 In that case, the --address has priority for the address
1606 family in which is appears, but the --server has priority
1607 of the address family which doesn't appear in --address
1608 So:
1609 --address=/google.com/1.2.3.4
1610 --server=/google.com/#
1611 will return 1.2.3.4 for IPv4 queries for *.google.com but
1612 forward IPv6 queries to the normal upstream nameserver.
1613 Similarly when setting an IPv6 address
1614 only this will allow forwarding of IPv4 queries. Thanks to
1615 William for pointing out the need for this.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001616
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001617 Allow more than one --dhcp-optsfile and --dhcp-hostsfile
1618 and make them understand directories as arguments in the
1619 same way as --addn-hosts. Suggestion from John Hanks.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001620
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001621 Ignore rebinding requests for leases we don't know
1622 about. Rebind is broadcast, so we might get to overhear a
1623 request meant for another DHCP server. NAKing this is
1624 wrong. Thanks to Brad D'Hondt for assistance with this.
1625
1626 Fix cosmetic bug which produced strange output when
1627 dumping cache statistics with some configurations. Thanks
1628 to Fedor Kozhevnikov for spotting this.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001629
1630
Simon Kelleyc52e1892010-06-07 22:01:39 +01001631version 2.55
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001632 Fix crash when /etc/ethers is in use. Thanks to
1633 Gianluigi Tiesi for finding this.
Simon Kelleyc52e1892010-06-07 22:01:39 +01001634
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001635 Fix crash in netlink_multicast(). Thanks to Arno Wald for
1636 finding this one.
Simon Kelleyc52e1892010-06-07 22:01:39 +01001637
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001638 Allow the empty domain "." in dhcp domain-search (119)
1639 options.
Simon Kelleyc52e1892010-06-07 22:01:39 +01001640
1641
1642version 2.54
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001643 There is no version 2.54 to avoid confusion with 2.53,
1644 which incorrectly identifies itself as 2.54.
Simon Kelleyc52e1892010-06-07 22:01:39 +01001645
1646
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001647version 2.53
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001648 Fix failure to compile on Debian/kFreeBSD. Thanks to
1649 Axel Beckert and Petr Salinger.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001650
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001651 Fix code to avoid scary strict-aliasing warnings
1652 generated by gcc 4.4.
1653
1654 Added FAQ entry warning about DHCP failures with Vista
1655 when firewalls block 255.255.255.255.
1656
1657 Fixed bug which caused bad things to happen if a
1658 resolv.conf file which exists is subsequently removed.
1659 Thanks to Nikolai Saoukh for the patch.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001660
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001661 Rationalised the DHCP tag system. Every configuration item
1662 which can set a tag does so by adding "set:<tag>" and
1663 every configuration item which is conditional on a tag is
1664 made so by "tag:<tag>". The NOT operator changes to '!',
1665 which is a bit more intuitive too. Dhcp-host directives
1666 can set more than one tag now. The old '#' NOT,
1667 "net:" prefix and no-prefixes are still honoured, so
1668 no existing config file needs to be changed, but
1669 the documentation and new-style config files should be
1670 much less confusing.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001671
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001672 Added --tag-if to allow boolean operations on tags.
1673 This allows complicated logic to be clearer and more
1674 general. A great suggestion from Richard Voigt.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001675
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001676 Add broadcast/unicast information to DHCP logging.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001677
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001678 Allow --dhcp-broadcast to be unconditional.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001679
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001680 Fixed incorrect behaviour with NOT <tag> conditionals in
1681 dhcp-options. Thanks to Max Turkewitz for assistance
1682 finding this.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001683
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001684 If we send vendor-class encapsulated options based on the
1685 vendor-class supplied by the client, and no explicit
1686 vendor-class option is given, echo back the vendor-class
1687 from the client.
1688
1689 Fix bug which stopped dnsmasq from matching both a
1690 circuitid and a remoteid. Thanks to Ignacio Bravo for
1691 finding this.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001692
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001693 Add --dhcp-proxy, which makes it possible to configure
1694 dnsmasq to use a DHCP relay agent as a full proxy, with
1695 all DHCP messages passing through the proxy. This is
1696 useful if the relay adds extra information to the packets
1697 it forwards, but cannot be configured with the RFC 5107
1698 server-override option.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001699
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001700 Added interface:<iface name> part to dhcp-range. The
1701 semantics of this are very odd at first sight, but it
1702 allows a single line of the form
1703 dhcp-range=interface:virt0,192.168.0.4,192.168.0.200
1704 to be added to dnsmasq configuration which then supplies
1705 DHCP and DNS services to that interface, without affecting
1706 what services are supplied to other interfaces and
1707 irrespective of the existence or lack of
1708 interface=<interface>
1709 lines elsewhere in the dnsmasq configuration. The idea is
1710 that such a line can be added automatically by libvirt
1711 or equivalent systems, without disturbing any manual
1712 configuration.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001713
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001714 Similarly to the above, allow --enable-tftp=<interface>
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001715
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001716 Allow a TFTP root to be set separately for requests via
1717 different interfaces, --tftp-root=<path>,<interface>
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001718
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001719 Correctly handle and log clashes between CNAMES and
1720 DNS names being given to DHCP leases. This fixes a bug
1721 which caused nonsense IP addresses to be logged. Thanks to
1722 Sergei Zhirikov for finding and analysing the problem.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001723
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001724 Tweak flush_log so as to avoid leaving the log
1725 file in non-blocking mode. O_NONBLOCK is a property of the
1726 file, not the process/descriptor.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001727
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001728 Fix contrib/Solaris10/create_package
1729 (/usr/man -> /usr/share/man) Thanks to Vita Batrla.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001730
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001731 Fix a problem where, if a client got a lease, then went
1732 to another subnet and got another lease, then moved back,
1733 it couldn't resume the old lease, but would instead get
1734 a new address. Thanks to Leonardo Rodrigues for spotting
1735 this and testing the fix.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001736
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001737 Fix weird bug which sometimes omitted certain characters
1738 from the start of quoted strings in dhcp-options. Thanks
1739 to Dayton Turner for spotting the problem.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001740
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001741 Add facility to redirect some domains to the standard
1742 upstream servers: this allows something like
1743 --server=/google.com/1.2.3.4 --server=/www.google.com/#
1744 which will send queries for *.google.com to 1.2.3.4,
1745 except *www.google.com which will be forwarded as usual.
1746 Thanks to AJ Weber for prompting this addition.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001747
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001748 Improve the hash-algorithm used to generate IP addresses
1749 from MAC addresses during initial DHCP address
1750 allocation. This improves performance when large numbers
1751 of hosts with similar MAC addresses all try and get an IP
1752 address at the same time. Thanks to Paul Smith for his
1753 work on this.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001754
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001755 Tweak DHCP code so that --bridge-interface can be used to
1756 select which IP alias of an interface should be used for
1757 DHCP purposes on Linux. If eth0 has an alias eth0:dhcp
1758 then adding --bridge-interface=eth0:dhcp,eth0 will use
1759 the address of eth0:dhcp to determine the correct subnet
1760 for DHCP address allocation. Thanks to Pawel Golaszewski
1761 for prompting this and Eric Cooper for further testing.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001762
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001763 Add --dhcp-generate-names. Suggestion by Ferenc Wagner.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001764
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001765 Tweak DNS server selection algorithm when there is more
1766 than one server available for a domain, eg.
1767 --server=/mydomain/1.1.1.1
1768 --server=/mydomain/2.2.2.2
1769 Thanks to Alberto Cuesta-Canada for spotting a weakness
1770 here.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001771
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001772 Add --max-ttl. Thanks to Fredrik Ringertz for the patch.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001773
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001774 Allow --log-facility=- to force all logging to
1775 stderr. Suggestion from Clemens Fischer.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001776
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001777 Fix regression which caused configuration like
1778 --address=/.domain.com/1.2.3.4 to be rejected. The dot to the
1779 left of the domain has been implied and not required for a
1780 long time, but it should be accepted for backward

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001783 Add --rebind-domain-ok and --rebind-localhost-ok.
1784 Suggestion from Clemens Fischer.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001785

Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001807version 2.52
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001808 Work around a Linux kernel bug which insists that the
1809 length of the option passed to setsockopt must be at least
1810 sizeof(int) bytes, even if we're calling SO_BINDTODEVICE
1811 and the device name is "lo". Note that this is fixed
1812 in kernel 2.6.31, but the workaround is harmless and
1813 allows earlier kernels to be used. Also fix dnsmasq
1814 bug which reported the wrong address when this failed.
1815 Thanks to Fedor for finding this.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001816
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001817 The API for IPv6 PKTINFO changed around Linux kernel
1818 2.6.14. Workaround the case where dnsmasq is compiled
1819 against newer headers, but then run on an old kernel:
1820 necessary for some *WRT distros.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001821
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001822 Re-read the set of network interfaces when re-loading
1823 /etc/resolv.conf if --bind-interfaces is not set. This
1824 handles the case that loopback interfaces do not exist
1825 when dnsmasq is first started.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001826
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001827 Tweak the PXE code to support port 4011. This should
1828 reduce broadcasts and make things more reliable when other
1829 servers are around. It also improves inter-operability
1830 with certain clients.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001831
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001832 Make a pxe-service configuration with no filename or boot
1833 service type legal: this does a local boot. eg.
1834 pxe-service=x86PC, "Local boot"
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001835
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001836 Be more conservative in detecting "A for A"
1837 queries. Dnsmasq checks if the name in a type=A query looks
1838 like a dotted-quad IP address and answers the query itself
1839 if so, rather than forwarding it. Previously dnsmasq
1840 relied in the library function inet_addr() to convert
1841 addresses, and that will accept some things which are
1842 confusing in this context, like 1.2.3 or even just
1843 1234. Now we only do A for A processing for four decimal
1844 numbers delimited by dots.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001845
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001846 A couple of tweaks to fix compilation on Solaris. Thanks
1847 to Joel Macklow for help with this.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001848
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001849 Another Solaris compilation tweak, needed for Solaris
1850 2009.06. Thanks to Lee Essen for that.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001851
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001852 Added extract packaging stuff from Lee Essen to
1853 contrib/Solaris10.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001854
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001855 Increased the default limit on number of leases to 1000
1856 (from 150). This is mainly a defence against DoS attacks,
1857 and for the average "one for two class C networks"
1858 installation, IP address exhaustion does that just as
1859 well. Making the limit greater than the number of IP
1860 addresses available in such an installation removes a
1861 surprise which otherwise can catch people out.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001862
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001863 Removed extraneous trailing space in the value of the
1864 DNSMASQ_TIME_REMAINING DNSMASQ_LEASE_LENGTH and
1865 DNSMASQ_LEASE_EXPIRES environment variables. Thanks to
1866 Gildas Le Nadan for spotting this.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001867
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001868 Provide the network-id tags for a DHCP transaction to
1869 the lease-change script in the environment variable
1870 DNSMASQ_TAGS. A good suggestion from Gildas Le Nadan.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001871
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001872 Add support for RFC3925 "Vendor-Identifying Vendor
1873 Options". The syntax looks like this:
1874 --dhcp-option=vi-encap:<enterprise number>, .........
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001875
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001876 Add support to --dhcp-match to allow matching against
1877 RFC3925 "Vendor-Identifying Vendor Classes". The syntax
1878 looks like this:
1879 --dhcp-match=tag,vi-encap<enterprise number>, <value>
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001880
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001881 Add some application specific code to assist in
1882 implementing the Broadband forum TR069 CPE-WAN
1883 specification. The details are in contrib/CPE-WAN/README
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001884
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001885 Increase the default DNS packet size limit to 4096, as
1886 recommended by RFC5625 section 4.4.3. This can be
1887 reconfigured using --edns-packet-max if needed. Thanks to
1888 Francis Dupont for pointing this out.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001889
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001890 Rewrite query-ids even for TSIG signed packets, since
1891 this is allowed by RFC5625 section 4.5.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001892
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001893 Use getopt_long by default on OS X. It has been supported
1894 since version 10.3.0. Thanks to Arek Dreyer for spotting
1895 this.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001896
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001897 Added up-to-date startup configuration for MacOSX/launchd
1898 in contrib/MacOSX-launchd. Thanks to Arek Dreyer for
1899 providing this.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001900
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001901 Fix link error when including Dbus but excluding DHCP.
1902 Thanks to Oschtan for the bug report.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00001903
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001904 Updated French translation. Thanks to Gildas Le Nadan.
1905
1906 Updated Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
1907
1908 Updated Spanish translation. Thanks to Chris Chatham.
1909
1910 Fixed confusion about domains, when looking up DHCP hosts
1911 in /etc/hosts. This could cause spurious "Ignoring
1912 domain..." messages. Thanks to Fedor Kozhevnikov for
1913 finding and analysing the problem.
1914
1915
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01001916version 2.51
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001917 Add support for internationalised DNS. Non-ASCII characters
1918 in domain names found in /etc/hosts, /etc/ethers and
1919 /etc/dnsmasq.conf will be correctly handled by translation to
1920 punycode, as specified in RFC3490. This function is only
1921 available if dnsmasq is compiled with internationalisation
1922 support, and adds a dependency on GNU libidn. Without i18n
1923 support, dnsmasq continues to be compilable with just
1924 standard tools. Thanks to Yves Dorfsman for the
1925 suggestion.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01001926
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001927 Add two more environment variables for lease-change scripts:
1928 First, DNSMASQ_SUPPLIED_HOSTNAME; this is set to the hostname
1929 supplied by a client, even if the actual hostname used is
1930 over-ridden by dhcp-host or dhcp-ignore-names directives.
1931 Also DNSMASQ_RELAY_ADDRESS which gives the address of
1932 a DHCP relay, if used.
1933 Suggestions from Michael Rack.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01001934
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001935 Fix regression which broke echo of relay-agent
1936 options. Thanks to Michael Rack for spotting this.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01001937
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001938 Don't treat option 67 as being interchangeable with
1939 dhcp-boot parameters if it's specified as
1940 dhcp-option-force.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01001941
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001942 Make the code to call scripts on lease-change compile-time
1943 optional. It can be switched off by editing src/config.h
1944 or building with "make COPTS=-DNO_SCRIPT".
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01001945
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001946 Make the TFTP server cope with filenames from Windows/DOS
1947 which use '\' as pathname separator. Thanks to Ralf for
1948 the patch.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01001949
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001950 Updated Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01001951
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001952 Warn if an IP address is duplicated in /etc/ethers. Thanks
1953 to Felix Schwarz for pointing this out.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01001954
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001955 Teach --conf-dir to take an option list of file suffices
1956 which will be ignored when scanning the directory. Useful
1957 for backup files etc. Thanks to Helmut Hullen for the
1958 suggestion.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01001959
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001960 Add new DHCP option named tftpserver-address, which
1961 corresponds to the third argument of dhcp-boot. This
1962 allows the complete functionality of dhcp-boot to be
1963 replicated with dhcp-option. Useful when using
1964 dhcp-optsfile.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01001965
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001966 Test which upstream nameserver to use every 10 seconds
1967 or 50 queries and not just when a query times out and
1968 is retried. This should improve performance when there
1969 is a slow nameserver in the list. Thanks to Joe for the
1970 suggestion.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01001971
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001972 Don't do any PXE processing, even for clients with the
1973 correct vendorclass, unless at least one pxe-prompt or
1974 pxe-service option is given. This stops dnsmasq
1975 interfering with proxy PXE subsystems when it is just
1976 the DHCP server. Thanks to Spencer Clark for spotting this.
1977
1978 Limit the blocksize used for TFTP transfers to a value
1979 which avoids packet fragmentation, based on the MTU of the
1980 local interface. Many netboot ROMs can't cope with
1981 fragmented packets.
1982
1983 Honour dhcp-ignore configuration for PXE and proxy-PXE
1984 requests. Thanks to Niels Basjes for the bug report.
1985
1986 Updated French translation. Thanks to Gildas Le Nadan.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001990 Fix security problem which allowed any host permitted to
1991 do TFTP to possibly compromise dnsmasq by remote buffer
1992 overflow when TFTP enabled. Thanks to Core Security
1993 Technologies and Iván Arce, Pablo Hernán Jorge, Alejandro

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002005 Fix regression in 2.48 which disables the lease-change
2006 script. Thanks to Jose Luis Duran for spotting this.
Simon Kelley03a97b62009-06-10 20:55:49 +01002007
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002008 Log TFTP "file not found" errors. These were not logged,
2009 since a normal PXELinux boot generates many of them, but
2010 the lack of the messages seems to be more confusing than
2011 routinely seeing them when there is no real error.
Simon Kelley03a97b62009-06-10 20:55:49 +01002012
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002013 Update Spanish translation. Thanks to Chris Chatham.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002017 Archived the extensive, backwards, changelog to
2018 CHANGELOG.archive. The current changelog now runs from

Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002020
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002021 Fixed bug which broke binding of servers to physical
2022 interfaces when interface names were longer than four
2023 characters. Thanks to MURASE Katsunori for the patch.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002024
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002025 Fixed netlink code to check that messages come from the
2026 correct source, and not another userspace process. Thanks
2027 to Steve Grubb for the patch.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002028
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002029 Maintainability drive: removed bug and missing feature
2030 workarounds for some old platforms. Solaris 9, OpenBSD
2031 older than 4.1, Glibc older than 2.2, Linux 2.2.x and
2032 DBus older than 1.1.x are no longer supported.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002033
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002034 Don't read included configuration files more than once:
2035 allows complex configuration structures without problems.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002036
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002037 Mark log messages from the various subsystems in dnsmasq:
2038 messages from the DHCP subsystem now have the ident string
2039 "dnsmasq-dhcp" and messages from TFTP have ident
2040 "dnsmasq-tftp". Thanks to Olaf Westrik for the patch.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002041
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002042 Fix possible infinite DHCP protocol loop when an IP
2043 address nailed to a hostname (not a MAC address) and a
2044 host sometimes provides the name, sometimes not.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002045
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002046 Allow --addn-hosts to take a directory: all the files
2047 in the directory are read. Thanks to Phil Cornelius for
2048 the suggestion.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002049
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002050 Support --bridge-interface on all platforms, not just BSD.
Simon Kelley1ab84e22004-01-29 16:48:35 +00002051
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002052 Added support for advanced PXE functions. It's now
2053 possible to define a prompt and menu options which will
2054 be displayed when a client PXE boots. It's also possible to
2055 hand-off booting to other boot servers. Proxy-DHCP, where
2056 dnsmasq just supplies the PXE information and another DHCP
2057 server does address allocation, is also allowed. See the
2058 --pxe-prompt and --pxe-service keywords. Thanks to
2059 Alkis Georgopoulos for the suggestion and Guilherme Moro
2060 and Michael Brown for assistance.
2061
2062 Improvements to DHCP logging. Thanks to Tom Metro for
2063 useful suggestions.
2064
2065 Add ability to build dnsmasq without DHCP support. To do
2066 this, edit src/config.h or build with
2067 "make COPTS=-DNO_DHCP". Thanks to Mahavir Jain for the patch.
2068
2069 Added --test command-line switch - syntax check
2070 configuration files only.

2079 5.0. Thanks to Roy Marples for the patch.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002080
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002081 Updated config.h to use the same location for the lease
2082 file on NetBSD as the other *BSD variants. Also allow
2083 LEASEFILE and CONFFILE symbols to be overridden in CFLAGS.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002084
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002085 Handle duplicate address detection on IPv6 more
2086 intelligently. In IPv6, an interface can have an address
2087 which is not usable, because it is still undergoing DAD
2088 (such addresses are marked "tentative"). Attempting to
2089 bind to an address in this state returns an error,
2090 EADDRNOTAVAIL. Previously, on getting such an error,
2091 dnsmasq would silently abandon the address, and never
2092 listen on it. Now, it retries once per second for 20
2093 seconds before generating a fatal error. 20 seconds should
2094 be long enough for any DAD process to complete, but can be
2095 adjusted in src/config.h if necessary. Thanks to Martin
2096 Krafft for the bug report.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002098 Add DBus introspection. Patch from Jeremy Laine.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002104 Support arbitrarily encapsulated DHCP options, suggestion
2105 and initial patch from Samium Gromoff. This is useful for
Geert Stappersc7e6aea2018-01-13 17:56:37 +00002106 (eg) iPXE, which expect all its private options to be
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002107 encapsulated inside a single option 175. So, eg,
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002108
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002109 dhcp-option = encap:175, 190, "iscsi-client0"
2110 dhcp-option = encap:175, 191, "iscsi-client0-secret"
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002111
Geert Stappersc7e6aea2018-01-13 17:56:37 +00002112 will provide iSCSI parameters to iPXE.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002113
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002114 Enhance --dhcp-match to allow testing of the contents of a
2115 client-sent option, as well as its presence. This
2116 application in mind for this is RFC 4578
2117 client-architecture specifiers, but it's generally useful.
2118 Joey Korkames suggested the enhancement.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002119
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002120 Move from using the IP_XMIT_IF ioctl to IP_BOUND_IF on
2121 OpenSolaris. Thanks to Bastian Machek for the heads-up.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002122
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002123 No longer complain about blank lines in
2124 /etc/ethers. Thanks to Jon Nelson for the patch.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002125
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002126 Fix binding of servers to physical devices, eg
2127 --server=/domain/1.2.3.4@eth0 which was broken from 2.43
2128 onwards unless --query-port=0 set. Thanks to Peter Naulls
2129 for the bug report.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002130
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002131 Reply to DHCPINFORM requests even when the supplied ciaddr
2132 doesn't fall in any dhcp-range. In this case it's not
2133 possible to supply a complete configuration, but
2134 individually-configured options (eg PAC) may be useful.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002135
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002136 Allow the source address of an alias to be a range:
2137 --alias=192.168.0.0,10.0.0.0,255.255.255.0 maps the whole
2138 subnet 192.168.0.0->192.168.0.255 to 10.0.0.0->10.0.0.255,
2139 as before.
2140 --alias=192.168.0.10-192.168.0.40,10.0.0.0,255.255.255.0
2141 maps only the 192.168.0.10->192.168.0.40 region. Thanks to
2142 Ib Uhrskov for the suggestion.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002143
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002144 Don't dynamically allocate DHCP addresses which may break
2145 Windows. Addresses which end in .255 or .0 are broken in
2146 Windows even when using supernetting.
2147 --dhcp-range=192.168.0.1,192.168.1.254,255,255,254.0 means
2148 192.168.0.255 is a valid IP address, but not for Windows.
2149 See Microsoft KB281579. We therefore no longer allocate
2150 these addresses to avoid hard-to-diagnose problems.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002151
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002152 Update Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
2153
2154 Delete the PID-file when dnsmasq shuts down. Note that by
2155 this time, dnsmasq is normally not running as root, so
2156 this will fail if the PID-file is stored in a root-owned
2157 directory; such failure is silently ignored. To take
2158 advantage of this feature, the PID-file must be stored in a
2159 directory owned and write-able by the user running
2160 dnsmasq.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002161
2162
2163version 2.46
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002164 Allow --bootp-dynamic to take a netid tag, so that it may
2165 be selectively enabled. Thanks to Olaf Westrik for the
2166 suggestion.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002167
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002168 Remove ISC-leasefile reading code. This has been
2169 deprecated for a long time, and last time I removed it, it
2170 ended up going back by request of one user. This time,
2171 it's gone for good; otherwise it would need to be
2172 re-worked to support multiple domains (see below).
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002173
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002174 Support DHCP clients in multiple DNS domains. This is a
2175 long-standing request. Clients are assigned to a domain
2176 based in their IP address.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002177
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002178 Add --dhcp-fqdn flag, which changes behaviour if DNS names
2179 assigned to DHCP clients. When this is set, there must be
2180 a domain associated with each client, and only
2181 fully-qualified domain names are added to the DNS. The
2182 advantage is that the only the FQDN needs to be unique,
2183 so that two or more DHCP clients can share a hostname, as
2184 long as they are in different domains.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002185
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002186 Set environment variable DNSMASQ_DOMAIN when invoking
2187 lease-change script. This may be useful information to
2188 have now that it's variable.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002189
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002190 Tighten up data-checking code for DNS packet
2191 handling. Thanks to Steve Dodd who found certain illegal
2192 packets which could crash dnsmasq. No memory overwrite was
2193 possible, so this is not a security issue beyond the DoS
2194 potential.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002195
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002196 Update example config dhcp option 47, the previous
2197 suggestion generated an illegal, zero-length,
2198 option. Thanks to Matthias Andree for finding this.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002199
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002200 Rewrite hosts-file reading code to remove the limit of
2201 1024 characters per line. John C Meuser found this.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002202
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002203 Create a net-id tag with the name of the interface on
2204 which the DHCP request was received.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002205
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002206 Fixed minor memory leak in DBus code, thanks to Jeremy
2207 Laine for the patch.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002208
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002209 Emit DBus signals as the DHCP lease database
2210 changes. Thanks to Jeremy Laine for the patch.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002211
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002212 Allow for more that one MAC address in a dhcp-host
2213 line. This configuration tells dnsmasq that it's OK to
2214 abandon a DHCP lease of the fixed address to one MAC
2215 address, if another MAC address in the dhcp-host statement
2216 asks for an address. This is useful to give a fixed
2217 address to a host which has two network interfaces
2218 (say, a laptop with wired and wireless interfaces.)
2219 It's very important to ensure that only one interface
2220 at a time is up, since dnsmasq abandons the first lease
2221 and re-uses the address before the leased time has
2222 elapsed. John Gray suggested this.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002223
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002224 Tweak the response to a DHCP request packet with a wrong
2225 server-id when --dhcp-authoritative is set; dnsmasq now
2226 returns a DHCPNAK, rather than silently ignoring the
2227 packet. Thanks to Chris Marget for spotting this
2228 improvement.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002229
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002230 Add --cname option. This provides a limited alias
2231 function, usable for DHCP names. Thanks to AJ Weber for
2232 suggestions on this.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002233
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002234 Updated contrib/webmin with latest version from Neil
2235 Fisher.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002237 Updated Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002238
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002239 Correct the text names for DHCP options 64 and 65 to be
2240 "nis+-domain" and "nis+-servers".
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002241
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002242 Updated Spanish translation. Thanks to Chris Chatham.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002249 Fix total DNS failure in release 2.44 unless --min-port
2250 specified. Thanks to Steven Barth and Grant Coady for
2251 bugreport. Also reject out-of-range port spec, which could
2252 break things too: suggestion from Gilles Espinasse.

Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002254
2255version 2.44
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002256 Fix crash when unknown client attempts to renew a DHCP
2257 lease, problem introduced in version 2.43. Thanks to
2258 Carlos Carvalho for help chasing this down.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002259
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002260 Fix potential crash when a host which doesn't have a lease
2261 does DHCPINFORM. Again introduced in 2.43. This bug has
2262 never been reported in the wild.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002263
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002264 Fix crash in netlink code introduced in 2.43. Thanks to
2265 Jean Wolter for finding this.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002266
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002267 Change implementation of min_port to work even if min-port
2268 is large.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002269
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002270 Patch to enable compilation of latest Mac OS X. Thanks to

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002279 Flag errors when configuration options are repeated
2280 illegally.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002281
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002282 Further tweaks for GNU/kFreeBSD
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002283
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002284 Add --no-wrap to msgmerge call - provides nicer .po file
2285 format.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002286
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002287 Honour lease-time spec in dhcp-host lines even for
2288 BOOTP. The user is assumed to known what they are doing in
2289 this case. (Hosts without the time spec still get infinite
2290 leases for BOOTP, over-riding the default in the
2291 dhcp-range.) Thanks to Peter Katzmann for uncovering this.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002292
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002293 Fix problem matching relay-agent ids. Thanks to Michael
2294 Rack for the bug report.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002296 Add --naptr-record option. Suggestion from Johan
2297 Bergquist.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002298
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002299 Implement RFC 5107 server-id-override DHCP relay agent
2300 option.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002301
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002302 Apply patches from Stefan Kruger for compilation on
2303 Solaris 10 under Sun studio.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002304
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002305 Yet more tweaking of Linux capability code, to suppress
2306 pointless wingeing from kernel 2.6.25 and above.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002307
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002308 Improve error checking during startup. Previously, some
2309 errors which occurred during startup would be worked
2310 around, with dnsmasq still starting up. Some were logged,
2311 some silent. Now, they all cause a fatal error and dnsmasq
2312 terminates with a non-zero exit code. The errors are those
2313 associated with changing uid and gid, setting process
2314 capabilities and writing the pidfile. Thanks to Uwe
2315 Gansert and the Suse security team for pointing out
2316 this improvement, and Bill Reimers for good implementation
2317 suggestions.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002318
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002319 Provide NO_LARGEFILE compile option to switch off largefile
2320 support when compiling against versions of uclibc which
2321 don't support it. Thanks to Stephane Billiart for the patch.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002322
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002323 Implement random source ports for interactions with
2324 upstream nameservers. New spoofing attacks have been found
2325 against nameservers which do not do this, though it is not
2326 clear if dnsmasq is vulnerable, since to doesn't implement
2327 recursion. By default dnsmasq will now use a different
2328 source port (and socket) for each query it sends
2329 upstream. This behaviour can suppressed using the
2330 --query-port option, and the old default behaviour
2331 restored using --query-port=0. Explicit source-port
2332 specifications in --server configs are still honoured.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002333
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002334 Replace the random number generator, for better
2335 security. On most BSD systems, dnsmasq uses the
2336 arc4random() RNG, which is secure, but on other platforms,
2337 it relied on the C-library RNG, which may be
2338 guessable and therefore allow spoofing. This release
2339 replaces the libc RNG with the SURF RNG, from Daniel
2340 J. Berstein's DJBDNS package.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002341
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002342 Don't attempt to change user or group or set capabilities
2343 if dnsmasq is run as a non-root user. Without this, the
2344 change from soft to hard errors when these fail causes
2345 problems for non-root daemons listening on high
2346 ports. Thanks to Patrick McLean for spotting this.
