Simon Kelley4e96a4b2020-11-11 23:25:04 +00005 Fix a remote buffer overflow problem in the DNSSEC code. Any
6 dnsmasq with DNSSEC compiled in and enabled is vulnerable to this,

Simon Kelley4e96a4b2020-11-11 23:25:04 +00009
Simon Kelley257ac0c2020-11-12 18:49:23 +000010 Be sure to only accept UDP DNS query replies at the address
11 from which the query was originated. This keeps as much entropy
Simon Kelley15b60dd2020-11-18 18:34:55 +000012 in the {query-ID, random-port} tuple as possible, to help defeat
Simon Kelleye01e09c2021-01-08 22:50:03 +000013 cache poisoning attacks. Refer: CVE-2020-25684.
Simon Kelley4e96a4b2020-11-11 23:25:04 +000014
Simon Kelley2d765862020-11-12 22:06:07 +000015 Use the SHA-256 hash function to verify that DNS answers
16 received are for the questions originally asked. This replaces
17 the slightly insecure SHA-1 (when compiled with DNSSEC) or
Simon Kelleye01e09c2021-01-08 22:50:03 +000018 the very insecure CRC32 (otherwise). Refer: CVE-2020-25685.
Simon Kelley15b60dd2020-11-18 18:34:55 +000019
20 Handle multiple identical near simultaneous DNS queries better.
21 Previously, such queries would all be forwarded
22 independently. This is, in theory, inefficent but in practise
23 not a problem, _except_ that is means that an answer for any
24 of the forwarded queries will be accepted and cached.
25 An attacker can send a query multiple times, and for each repeat,
26 another {port, ID} becomes capable of accepting the answer he is
27 sending in the blind, to random IDs and ports. The chance of a
28 succesful attack is therefore multiplied by the number of repeats
29 of the query. The new behaviour detects repeated queries and
30 merely stores the clients sending repeats so that when the
31 first query completes, the answer can be sent to all the
Simon Kelleye01e09c2021-01-08 22:50:03 +000032 clients who asked. Refer: CVE-2020-25686.

Matthias Andreef60fea12020-07-19 21:54:44 +010044 Fix crash under heavy TCP connection load introduced in 2.81.
Simon Kelley2bd02d22020-07-12 21:57:38 +010045 Thanks to Frank for good work chasing this down.

Matthias Andreef60fea12020-07-19 21:54:44 +010049 Alter calculation of preferred and valid times in router
Simon Kelley4d85e402020-07-12 22:45:46 +010050 advertisements, so that these do not have a floor applied
51 of the lease time in the dhcp-range if this is not explicitly
52 specified and is merely the default.

Simon Kelleya799ca02018-10-18 19:35:29 +010056version 2.81
Matthias Andree081a1c42020-04-05 11:26:38 +020057 Improve cache behaviour for TCP connections. For ease of
Matthias Andreef60fea12020-07-19 21:54:44 +010058 implementation, dnsmasq has always forked a new process to handle
Simon Kelleya799ca02018-10-18 19:35:29 +010059 each incoming TCP connection. A side-effect of this is that
60 any DNS queries answered from TCP connections are not cached:
61 when TCP connections were rare, this was not a problem.
Matthias Andree081a1c42020-04-05 11:26:38 +020062 With the coming of DNSSEC, it is now the case that some
Simon Kelleya799ca02018-10-18 19:35:29 +010063 DNSSEC queries have answers which spill to TCP, and if,
Matthias Andree081a1c42020-04-05 11:26:38 +020064 for instance, this applies to the keys for the root, then
Simon Kelleya799ca02018-10-18 19:35:29 +010065 those never get cached, and performance is very bad.
66 This fix passes cache entries back from the TCP child process to
67 the main server process, and fixes the problem.
68
Simon Kelley48d12f12018-11-02 21:55:04 +000069 Remove the NO_FORK compile-time option, and support for uclinux.
70 In an era where everything has an MMU, this looks like
71 an anachronism, and it adds to (Ok, multiplies!) the
72 combinatorial explosion of compile-time options. Thanks to
73 Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant for the patch.
74
Simon Kelley4219ade2019-02-27 20:30:21 +000075 Fix line-counting when reading /etc/hosts and friends; for
76 correct error messages. Thanks to Christian Rosentreter

78
Sven Mueller162e5e02019-02-27 21:17:37 +000079 Fix bug in DNS non-terminal code, added in 2.80, which could
80 sometimes cause a NODATA rather than an NXDOMAIN reply.
Simon Kelleya066aac2019-03-01 16:18:07 +000081 Thanks to Norman Rasmussen, Sven Mueller and Maciej Żenczykowski
82 for spotting and diagnosing the bug and providing patches.

Simon Kelley608aa9f2019-03-10 22:44:15 +000084 Support TCP-fastopen (RFC-7413) on both incoming and
85 outgoing TCP connections, if supported and enabled in the OS.
Simon Kelley305ffb52019-03-16 18:17:17 +000086
87 Improve kernel-capability manipulation code under Linux. Dnsmasq
88 now fails early if a required capability is not available, and
89 tries not to request capabilities not required by its
90 configuration.
91
Simon Kelleyae5b7e02019-03-27 22:33:28 +000092 Add --shared-network config. This enables allocation of addresses
Matthias Andree081a1c42020-04-05 11:26:38 +020093 by the DHCP server in subnets where the server (or relay) does not
Simon Kelleyae5b7e02019-03-27 22:33:28 +000094 have an interface on the network in that subnet. Many thanks to

102
Simon Kelleyfef2f1c2019-08-29 21:59:00 +0100103 Fix spurious DNSSEC validation failures when the auth section
Simon Kelley69a04772019-09-03 16:49:02 +0100104 of a reply contains unsigned RRs from a signed zone,
105 with the exception that NSEC and NSEC3 RRs must always be signed.
106 Thanks to Tore Anderson for spotting and diagnosing the bug.
Simon Kelleyfef2f1c2019-08-29 21:59:00 +0100107
Florent Fourcot13a58f92019-06-20 10:26:40 +0200108 Add --dhcp-ignore-clid. This disables reading of DHCP client
109 identifier option (option 61), so clients are only identified by
110 MAC addresses.
111
Simon Kelley6ebdc952019-10-30 21:04:27 +0000112 Fix a bug which stopped --dhcp-name-match from working when a hostname

Simon Kelleycd672932020-01-27 22:53:07 +0000123 In the router advert code, handle case where we have two
Matthias Andree081a1c42020-04-05 11:26:38 +0200124 different interfaces on the same IPv6 net, and we are doing
Simon Kelleycd672932020-01-27 22:53:07 +0000125 RA/DHCP service on only one of them. Thanks to NIIBE Yutaka
126 for spotting this case and making the initial patch.
Simon Kelley79aba0f2020-02-03 23:58:45 +0000127
128 Support prefixed ranges of ipv6 addresses in dhcp-host.
129 This eases problems chain-netbooting, where each link in the
130 chain requests an address using a different UID. With a single
131 address, only one gets the "static" address, but with this
132 fix, enough addresses can be reserved for all the stages of the
133 boot. Many thanks to Harald Jensås for his work on this idea and
Simon Kelley52ec7832020-02-07 21:05:54 +0000134 earlier patches.
135
136 Add filtering by tag of --dhcp-host directives. Based on a patch
137 by Harald Jensås.
Simon Kelleya9b022a2020-02-11 21:58:59 +0000138
139 Allow empty server spec in --rev-server, to match --server.
Simon Kelleycd672932020-01-27 22:53:07 +0000140
Simon Kelley425e2402020-02-26 18:28:32 +0000141 Remove DSA signature verification from DNSSEC, as specified in
142 RFC 8624. Thanks to Loganaden Velvindron for the original patch.
143
Simon Kelleyee645822020-02-27 16:34:14 +0000144 Add --script-on-renewal option.

Simon Kelley734d5312018-03-23 23:09:53 +0000147version 2.80
148 Add support for RFC 4039 DHCP rapid commit. Thanks to Ashram Method
149 for the initial patch and motivation.
150
Simon Kelleya6918532018-04-15 16:20:52 +0100151 Alter the default for dnssec-check-unsigned. Versions of
152 dnsmasq prior to 2.80 defaulted to not checking unsigned
153 replies, and used --dnssec-check-unsigned to switch
154 this on. Such configurations will continue to work as before,
155 but those which used the default of no checking will need to be
156 altered to explicitly select no checking. The new default is
157 because switching off checking for unsigned replies is
158 inherently dangerous. Not only does it open the possiblity of forged
159 replies, but it allows everything to appear to be working even
160 when the upstream namesevers do not support DNSSEC, and in this
161 case no DNSSEC validation at all is occuring.
162
Simon Kelley0669ee72018-05-04 16:46:24 +0100163 Fix DHCP broken-ness when --no-ping AND --dhcp-sequential-ip
164 are set. Thanks to Daniel Miess for help with this.
Simon Kelleya6918532018-04-15 16:20:52 +0100165
Simon Kelley6b173352018-05-08 18:32:14 +0100166 Add a facilty to store DNS packets sent/recieved in a
167 pcap-format file for later debugging. The file location
168 is given by the --dumpfile option, and a bitmap controlling
169 which packets should be dumped is given by the --dumpmask
170 option.
171
Simon Kelleyc488b682018-06-02 13:06:00 +0100172 Handle the case of both standard and constructed dhcp-ranges on the
173 same interface better. We don't now contruct a dhcp-range if there's
174 already one specified. This allows the specified interface to
175 have different parameters and avoids advertising the same
176 prefix twice. Thanks to Luis Marsano for spotting this case.
177
Simon Kelley090856c2018-06-02 18:37:07 +0100178 Allow zone transfer in authoritative mode if auth-peer is specified,
179 even if auth-sec-servers is not. Thanks to Raphaël Halimi for
180 the suggestion.
181
Simon Kelleya997ca02018-06-29 14:39:41 +0100182 Fix bug which sometimes caused dnsmasq to wrongly return answers
183 without DNSSEC RRs to queries with the do-bit set, but only when
184 DNSSEC validation was not enabled.
185 Thanks to Petr Menšík for spotting this.
Simon Kelleya3bd7e72018-07-19 22:00:08 +0100186
187 Fix missing fatal errors with some malformed options
188 (server, local, address, rebind-domain-ok, ipset, alias).
189 Thanks to Eugene Lozovoy for spotting the problem.
Simon Kelleydd33e982018-07-30 14:55:39 +0100190

193
Simon Kelley1682d152018-08-03 20:38:18 +0100194 Fix missing EDNS0 section in some replies generated by local
195 DNS configuration which confused systemd-resolvd. Thanks to
196 Steve Dodd for characterising the problem.
197
Simon Kelleyc8226202018-08-08 23:46:03 +0100198 Add --dhcp-name-match config option.

202 Implement --address=/example.com/# as (more efficient) syntactic
203 sugar for --address=/example.com/0.0.0.0 and
204 --address=/example.com/::
205 Returning null addresses is a useful technique for ad-blocking.
206 Thanks to Peter Russell for the suggestion.

Simon Kelley41392982018-09-19 22:27:11 +0100208 Change anti cache-snooping behaviour with queries with the
209 recursion-desired bit unset. Instead to returning SERVFAIL, we
210 now always forward, and never answer from the cache. This
211 allows "dig +trace" command to work.
212
Simon Kelley7cbf4972018-09-26 18:03:10 +0100213 Include in the example config file a formulation which
214 stops DHCP clients from claiming the DNS name "wpad".
215 This is a fix for the CERT Vulnerability VU#598349.

220 Thanks to Diego Aguirre for spotting the bug.
221
Simon Kelley9d6918d2017-10-13 17:55:09 +0100222 Where available, use IP_UNICAST_IF or IPV6_UNICAST_IF to bind
223 upstream servers to an interface, rather than SO_BINDTODEVICE.
224 Thanks to Beniamino Galvani for the patch.
225
Simon Kelley087eb762017-10-30 23:16:54 +0000226 Always return a SERVFAIL answer to DNS queries without the
Ville Skyttäfaaf3062018-01-14 17:32:52 +0000227 recursion desired bit set, UNLESS acting as an authoritative
Simon Kelley087eb762017-10-30 23:16:54 +0000228 DNS server. This avoids a potential route to cache snooping.
229
Simon Kelley8e8b2d62017-10-30 23:21:52 +0000230 Add support for Ed25519 signatures in DNSSEC validation.
231
232 No longer support RSA/MD5 signatures in DNSSEC validation,
233 since these are not secure. This behaviour is mandated in
234 RFC-6944.
235
Simon Kelleya6cee692017-12-14 22:40:48 +0000236 Fix incorrect error exit code from dhcp_release6 utility.
237 Thanks Gaudenz Steinlin for the bug report.
238
Simon Kelley3c973ad2018-01-14 21:05:37 +0000239 Use SIGINT (instead of overloading SIGHUP) to turn on DNSSEC
240 time validation when --dnssec-no-timecheck is in use.
241 Note that this is an incompatible change from earlier releases.
242
Simon Kelley22cd8602018-01-14 22:57:14 +0000243 Allow more than one --bridge-interface option to refer to an
244 interface, so that we can use
245 --bridge-interface=int1,alias1
246 --bridge-interface=int1,alias2
247 as an alternative to
248 --bridge-interface=int1,alias1,alias2
249 Thanks to Neil Jerram for work on this.
Simon Kelley4fe67442018-01-19 12:26:08 +0000250
251 Fix for DNSSEC with wildcard-derived NSEC records.
252 It's OK for NSEC records to be expanded from wildcards,
253 but in that case, the proof of non-existence is only valid
254 starting at the wildcard name, *.<domain> NOT the name expanded
255 from the wildcard. Without this check it's possible for an
256 attacker to craft an NSEC which wrongly proves non-existence.
257 Thanks to Ralph Dolmans for finding this, and co-ordinating
258 the vulnerability tracking and fix release.
259 CVE-2017-15107 applies.

270 Add to --synth-domain the ability to create names using
271 sequential numbers, as well as encodings of IP addresses.
272 For instance,
273 --synth-domain=thekelleys.org.uk,192.168.0.50,192.168.0.70,internal-*
274 creates 21 domain names of the form
275 internal-4.thekelleys.org.uk over the address range given, with
276 internal-0.thekelleys.org.uk being 192.168.0.50 and
277 internal-20.thekelleys.org.uk being 192.168.0.70

Simon Kelley63437ff2017-09-06 22:34:21 +0100303 Fix regression in 2.77, ironically added as a security
304 improvement, which resulted in a crash when a DNS
305 query exceeded 512 bytes (or the EDNS0 packet size,
306 if different.) Thanks to Christian Kujau, Arne Woerner
307 Juan Manuel Fernandez and Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant for

309
Simon Kelley0549c732017-09-25 18:17:11 +0100310 Fix heap overflow in DNS code. This is a potentially serious
311 security hole. It allows an attacker who can make DNS
312 requests to dnsmasq, and who controls the contents of
313 a domain, which is thereby queried, to overflow
314 (by 2 bytes) a heap buffer and either crash, or

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100375 Calculate the length of TFTP error reply packet
376 correctly. This fixes a problem when the error
377 message in a TFTP packet exceeds the arbitrary
378 limit of 500 characters. The message was correctly
379 truncated, but not the packet length, so
380 extra data was appended. This is a possible
381 security risk, since the extra data comes from
382 a buffer which is also used for DNS, so that
383 previous DNS queries or replies may be leaked.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100580 Fix PXE booting for UEFI architectures. Modify PXE boot
581 sequence in this case to force the client to talk to dnsmasq
582 over port 4011. This makes PXE and especially proxy-DHCP PXE
583 work with these architectures.
Simon Kelley0a4a0492016-05-15 20:13:45 +0100584
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100585 Workaround problems with UEFI PXE clients. There exist
586 in the wild PXE clients which have problems with PXE
587 boot menus. To work around this, when there's a single
588 --pxe-service which applies to client, then that target
589 will be booted directly, rather then sending a
590 single-item boot menu.
591
592 Many thanks to Jarek Polok, Michael Kuron and Dreamcat4
593 for their work on the long-standing UEFI PXE problem.
594
595 Subtle change in the semantics of "basename" in
596 --pxe-service. The historical behaviour has always been
597 that the actual filename downloaded from the TFTP server
598 is <basename>.<layer> where <layer> is an integer which
599 corresponds to the layer parameter supplied by the client.
600 It's not clear what the function of the "layer"
601 actually is in the PXE protocol, and in practise layer
602 is always zero, so the filename is <basename>.0
603 The new behaviour is the same as the old, except when
604 <basename> includes a file suffix, in which case
605 the layer suffix is no longer added. This allows
606 sensible suffices to be used, rather then the
607 meaningless ".0". Only in the unlikely event that you
608 have a config with a basename which already has a
609 suffix, is this an incompatible change, since the file
610 downloaded will change from name.suffix.0 to just

Simon Kelley63ec5d12015-07-30 20:59:07 +0100614version 2.75
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100615 Fix reversion on 2.74 which caused 100% CPU use when a
616 dhcp-script is configured. Thanks to Adrian Davey for
617 reporting the bug and testing the fix.

Simon Kelley90cb2222015-07-05 21:59:10 +0100620version 2.74
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100621 Fix reversion in 2.73 where --conf-file would attempt to
622 read the default file, rather than no file.
Simon Kelley90cb2222015-07-05 21:59:10 +0100623
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100624 Fix inotify code to handle dangling symlinks better and
625 not SEGV in some circumstances.
Simon Kelley362c9302015-07-06 21:48:49 +0100626
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100627 DNSSEC fix. In the case of a signed CNAME generated by a
628 wildcard which pointed to an unsigned domain, the wrong
629 status would be logged, and some necessary checks omitted.

Simon Kelley00cd9d52014-10-02 21:44:21 +0100632version 2.73
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100633 Fix crash at startup when an empty suffix is supplied to
634 --conf-dir, also trivial memory leak. Thanks to
635 Tomas Hozza for spotting this.
Simon Kelley800c5cc2014-12-15 17:50:15 +0000636
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100637 Remove floor of 4096 on advertised EDNS0 packet size when
638 DNSSEC in use, the original rationale for this has long gone.
639 Thanks to Anders Kaseorg for spotting this.
Simon Kelley800c5cc2014-12-15 17:50:15 +0000640
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100641 Use inotify for checking on updates to /etc/resolv.conf and
642 friends under Linux. This fixes race conditions when the files are
643 updated rapidly and saves CPU by noy polling. To build
644 a binary that runs on old Linux kernels without inotify,
645 use make COPTS=-DNO_INOTIFY
Simon Kelley3ad3f3b2014-12-16 18:25:17 +0000646
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100647 Fix breakage of --domain=<domain>,<subnet>,local - only reverse
648 queries were intercepted. THis appears to have been broken
649 since 2.69. Thanks to Josh Stone for finding the bug.
Simon Kelley47669362014-12-17 12:41:56 +0000650
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100651 Eliminate IPv6 privacy addresses and deprecated addresses from
652 the answers given by --interface-name. Note that reverse queries
653 (ie looking for names, given addresses) are not affected.
654 Thanks to Michael Gorbach for the suggestion.
Simon Kelley094b5c32014-12-21 16:11:52 +0000655
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100656 Fix crash in DNSSEC code with long RRs. Thanks to Marco Davids
657 for the bug report.
Simon Kelley00cd9d52014-10-02 21:44:21 +0100658
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100659 Add --ignore-address option. Ignore replies to A-record
660 queries which include the specified address. No error is
661 generated, dnsmasq simply continues to listen for another
662 reply. This is useful to defeat blocking strategies which
663 rely on quickly supplying a forged answer to a DNS
664 request for certain domains, before the correct answer can
665 arrive. Thanks to Glen Huang for the patch.
Simon Kelley25cf5e32015-01-09 15:53:03 +0000666
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100667 Revisit the part of DNSSEC validation which determines if an
668 unsigned answer is legit, or is in some part of the DNS
669 tree which should be signed. Dnsmasq now works from the
670 DNS root downward looking for the limit of signed
671 delegations, rather than working bottom up. This is
672 both more correct, and less likely to trip over broken
673 nameservers in the unsigned parts of the DNS tree
674 which don't respond well to DNSSEC queries.
Simon Kelley39341552015-01-18 22:11:10 +0000675
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100676 Add --log-queries=extra option, which makes logs easier
677 to search automatically.
Simon Kelley5f4dc5c2015-01-20 20:51:02 +0000678
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100679 Add --min-cache-ttl option. I've resisted this for a long
680 time, on the grounds that disbelieving TTLs is never a
681 good idea, but I've been persuaded that there are
682 sometimes reasons to do it. (Step forward, GFW).
683 To avoid misuse, there's a hard limit on the TTL
684 floor of one hour. Thanks to RinSatsuki for the patch.
Win King Wan61b838d2015-01-21 20:41:48 +0000685
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100686 Cope with multiple interfaces with the same link-local
687 address. (IPv6 addresses are scoped, so this is allowed.)
688 Thanks to Cory Benfield for help with this.
Simon Kelleyf6e62e22015-03-01 18:17:54 +0000689
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100690 Add --dhcp-hostsdir. This allows addition of new host
691 configurations to a running dnsmasq instance much more
692 cheaply than having dnsmasq re-read all its existing
693 configuration each time.
Stefan Tomanek30d08792015-03-31 22:32:11 +0100694
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100695 Don't reply to DHCPv6 SOLICIT messages if we're not
696 configured to do stateful DHCPv6. Thanks to Win King Wan
697 for the patch.
Simon Kelley04b0ac02015-04-06 17:19:13 +0100698
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100699 Fix broken DNSSEC validation of ECDSA signatures.
Simon Kelley38440b22015-04-12 21:52:47 +0100700
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100701 Add --dnssec-timestamp option, which provides an automatic
702 way to detect when the system time becomes valid after
703 boot on systems without an RTC, whilst allowing DNS
704 queries before the clock is valid so that NTP can run.
705 Thanks to Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant for developing this idea.
Simon Kelley38440b22015-04-12 21:52:47 +0100706
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100707 Add --tftp-no-fail option. Thanks to Stefan Tomanek for
708 the patch.
Simon Kelley04b0ac02015-04-06 17:19:13 +0100709
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100710 Fix crash caused by looking up servers.bind, CHAOS text
711 record, when more than about five --servers= lines are
712 in the dnsmasq config. This causes memory corruption
713 which causes a crash later. Thanks to Matt Coddington for
714 sterling work chasing this down.
Simon Kelleya5ae1f82015-04-25 21:46:10 +0100715
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100716 Fix crash on receipt of certain malformed DNS requests.
717 Thanks to Nick Sampanis for spotting the problem.
718 Note that this is could allow the dnsmasq process's
719 memory to be read by an attacker under certain
720 circumstances, so it has a CVE, CVE-2015-3294
Simon Kelley78c61842015-04-16 15:05:30 +0100721
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100722 Fix crash in authoritative DNS code, if a .arpa zone
723 is declared as authoritative, and then a PTR query which
724 is not to be treated as authoritative arrived. Normally,
725 directly declaring .arpa zone as authoritative is not
726 done, so this crash wouldn't be seen. Instead the
727 relevant .arpa zone should be specified as a subnet
728 in the auth-zone declaration. Thanks to Johnny S. Lee
729 for the bugreport and initial patch.
Simon Kelleya77cec82015-05-08 16:25:38 +0100730
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100731 Fix authoritative DNS code to correctly reply to NS
732 and SOA queries for .arpa zones for which we are
733 declared authoritative by means of a subnet in auth-zone.
734 Previously we provided correct answers to PTR queries
735 in such zones (including NS and SOA) but not direct
736 NS and SOA queries. Thanks to Johnny S. Lee for
737 pointing out the problem.
Simon Kelleyb059c962015-05-08 20:25:51 +0100738
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100739 Fix logging of DHCPREPLY which should be suppressed
740 by quiet-dhcp6. Thanks to J. Pablo Abonia for
741 spotting the problem.
Simon Kelleyca85a282015-05-13 22:33:04 +0100742
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100743 Try and handle net connections with broken fragmentation
744 that lose large UDP packets. If a server times out,
745 reduce the maximum UDP packet size field in the EDNS0
746 header to 1280 bytes. If it then answers, make that
747 change permanent.
Nicolas Cavallaric6d82c92015-06-09 20:42:20 +0100748
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100749 Check IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses when --stop-rebind

Neil Jerram4918bd52015-06-10 22:23:20 +0100751
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100752 Allow DHCPv4 options T1 and T2 to be set using --dhcp-option.
753 Thanks to Kevin Benton for patches and work on this.
Neil Jerram4918bd52015-06-10 22:23:20 +0100754
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100755 Fix code for DHCPCONFIRM DHCPv6 messages to confirm addresses
756 in the correct subnet, even of not in dynamic address
757 allocation range. Thanks to Steve Hirsch for spotting
758 the problem.
759
760 Add AddDhcpLease and DeleteDhcpLease DBus methods. Thanks
761 to Nicolas Cavallari for the patch.
762
763 Allow configuration of router advertisements without the
764 "on-link" bit set. Thanks to Neil Jerram for the patch.

Simon Kelley8e9ffba2014-05-20 20:38:25 +0100775
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100776 Fix race condition which could lock up dnsmasq when an
777 interface goes down and up rapidly. Thanks to Conrad
778 Kostecki for helping to chase this down.
Daniel Collinsc4638f92014-06-07 21:21:44 +0100779
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100780 Add DBus methods SetFilterWin2KOption and SetBogusPrivOption
781 Thanks to the Smoothwall project for the patch.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100783 Fix failure to build against Nettle-3.0. Thanks to Steven
784 Barth for spotting this and finding the fix.
Simon Kelleyb5ea1cc2014-07-29 16:34:14 +0100785
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100786 When assigning existing DHCP leases to interfaces by comparing
787 networks, handle the case that two or more interfaces have the
788 same network part, but different prefix lengths (favour the
789 longer prefix length.) Thanks to Lung-Pin Chang for the
790 patch.
Simon Kelley57826492014-09-18 22:08:58 +0100791
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100792 Add a mode which detects and removes DNS forwarding loops, ie
793 a query sent to an upstream server returns as a new query to
794 dnsmasq, and would therefore be forwarded again, resulting in
795 a query which loops many times before being dropped. Upstream
796 servers which loop back are disabled and this event is logged.
797 Thanks to Smoothwall for their sponsorship of this feature.
Simon Kelleybf2db4b2014-09-18 22:10:46 +0100798
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100799 Extend --conf-dir to allow filtering of files. So
800 --conf-dir=/etc/dnsmasq.d,\*.conf
801 will load all the files in /etc/dnsmasq.d which end in .conf
802
803 Fix bug when resulted in NXDOMAIN answers instead of NODATA in
804 some circumstances.
805
806 Fix bug which caused dnsmasq to become unresponsive if it
807 failed to send packets due to a network interface disappearing.
808 Thanks to Niels Peen for spotting this.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100815 Subtle change to error handling to help DNSSEC validation
816 when servers fail to provide NODATA answers for
817 non-existent DS records.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100833 Fix crash, introduced in 2.69, on TCP request when dnsmasq
834 compiled with DNSSEC support, but running without DNSSEC
835 enabled. Thanks to Manish Sing for spotting that one.
Simon Kelley63758382014-04-16 22:20:55 +0100836
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100837 Fix regression which broke ipset functionality. Thanks to

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100842 Implement dynamic interface discovery on *BSD. This allows
843 the constructor: syntax to be used in dhcp-range for DHCPv6
844 on the BSD platform. Thanks to Matthias Andree for
845 valuable research on how to implement this.

Simon Kelleyae762422014-01-10 18:15:16 +0000853
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100854 Add [fd00::] and [fe80::] as special addresses in DHCPv6
855 options, analogous to [::]. [fd00::] is replaced with the
856 actual ULA of the interface on the machine running
857 dnsmasq, [fe80::] with the link-local address.
858 Thanks to Tsachi Kimeldorfer for championing this.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100865 this adds dependencies on the nettle crypto library and the

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100871 which bloats the dnsmasq binary, but saves the size of
872 the shared libraries which are much bigger.
Simon Kelleyde73a492014-02-17 21:43:27 +0000873
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100874 To enable, DNSSEC, you will need a set of
875 trust-anchors. Now that the TLDs are signed, this can be
876 the keys for the root zone, and for convenience they are
877 included in trust-anchors.conf in the dnsmasq
878 distribution. You should of course check that these are
879 legitimate and up-to-date. So, adding
Simon Kelleyc8a80482014-03-05 14:29:54 +0000880

Simon Kelley604f7592014-03-22 19:33:43 +0000883
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100884 to your config is all that's needed to get things
885 working. The upstream nameservers have to be DNSSEC-capable
886 too, of course. Many ISP nameservers aren't, but the
887 Google public nameservers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) are.
888 When DNSSEC is configured, dnsmasq validates any queries
889 for domains which are signed. Query results which are
890 bogus are replaced with SERVFAIL replies, and results
891 which are correctly signed have the AD bit set. In
892 addition, and just as importantly, dnsmasq supplies
893 correct DNSSEC information to clients which are doing
894 their own validation, and caches DNSKEY, DS and RRSIG
895 records, which significantly improve the performance of
896 downstream validators. Setting --log-queries will show
897 DNSSEC in action.
Simon Kelley10068602014-04-03 21:16:40 +0100898
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100899 If a domain is returned from an upstream nameserver without
900 DNSSEC signature, dnsmasq by default trusts this. This
901 means that for unsigned zone (still the majority) there
902 is effectively no cost for having DNSSEC enabled. Of course
903 this allows an attacker to replace a signed record with a
904 false unsigned record. This is addressed by the
905 --dnssec-check-unsigned flag, which instructs dnsmasq
906 to prove that an unsigned record is legitimate, by finding
907 a secure proof that the zone containing the record is not
908 signed. Doing this has costs (typically one or two extra
909 upstream queries). It also has a nasty failure mode if
910 dnsmasq's upstream nameservers are not DNSSEC capable.
911 Without --dnssec-check-unsigned using such an upstream
912 server will simply result in not queries being validated;
913 with --dnssec-check-unsigned enabled and a
914 DNSSEC-ignorant upstream server, _all_ queries will fail.
915
916 Note that DNSSEC requires that the local time is valid and
917 accurate, if not then DNSSEC validation will fail. NTP
918 should be running. This presents a problem for routers
919 without a battery-backed clock. To set the time needs NTP
920 to do DNS lookups, but lookups will fail until NTP has run.
921 To address this, there's a flag, --dnssec-no-timecheck
922 which disables the time checks (only) in DNSSEC. When dnsmasq
923 is started and the clock is not synced, this flag should
924 be used. As soon as the clock is synced, SIGHUP dnsmasq.
925 The SIGHUP clears the cache of partially-validated data and
926 resets the no-timecheck flag, so that all DNSSEC checks
927 henceforward will be complete.
928
929 The development of DNSSEC in dnsmasq was started by
930 Giovanni Bajo, to whom huge thanks are owed. It has been
931 supported by Comcast, whose techfund grant has allowed for
932 an invaluable period of full-time work to get it to
933 a workable state.
934
935 Add --rev-server. Thanks to Dave Taht for suggesting this.
936
937 Add --servers-file. Allows dynamic update of upstream servers
938 full access to configuration.
939
940 Add --local-service. Accept DNS queries only from hosts
941 whose address is on a local subnet, ie a subnet for which
942 an interface exists on the server. This option
943 only has effect if there are no --interface --except-interface,
944 --listen-address or --auth-server options. It is intended
945 to be set as a default on installation, to allow
946 unconfigured installations to be useful but also safe from
947 being used for DNS amplification attacks.
948
949 Fix crashes in cache_get_cname_target() when dangling CNAMEs
950 encountered. Thanks to Andy and the rt-n56u project for
951 find this and helping to chase it down.
952
953 Fix wrong RCODE in authoritative DNS replies to PTR queries. The
954 correct answer was included, but the RCODE was set to NXDOMAIN.
955 Thanks to Craig McQueen for spotting this.
956
957 Make statistics available as DNS queries in the .bind TLD as
958 well as logging them.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100966 Fix bug which meant that the DHCPv6 DUID was not available
967 in DHCP script runs during the lifetime of the dnsmasq
968 process which created the DUID de-novo. Once the DUID was
969 created and stored in the lease file and dnsmasq

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +0100977 Allow subnet specifications in --auth-zone to be interface
978 names as well as address literals. This makes it possible
979 to configure authoritative DNS when local address ranges
980 are dynamic and works much better than the previous
981 work-around which exempted constructed DHCP ranges from the
982 IP address filtering. As a consequence, that work-around
983 is removed. Under certain circumstances, this change wil
984 break existing configuration: if you're relying on the
985 constructed-range exception, you need to change --auth-zone
986 to specify the same interface as is used to construct your
987 DHCP ranges, probably with a trailing "/6" like this:
988 --auth-zone=example.com,eth0/6 to limit the addresses to
989 IPv6 addresses of eth0.

1003 requests via IPv6, even in --bind-interfaces mode. This
1004 isn't possible for IPv4 and can generate scary warnings,
1005 but as it's always possible for IPv6 (the API always
1006 exists) then we should do it always.
1007
1008 Tweak the rules on prefix-lengths in --dhcp-range for
1009 IPv6. The new rule is that the specified prefix length
1010 must be larger than or equal to the prefix length of the
1011 corresponding address on the local interface.

1020 lease-time information in the reply to DHCPINFORM
1021 requests, on the correct grounds that it was a standards
1022 violation. However, this broke the dnsmasq-specific
1023 dhcp_lease_time utility. Now, DHCPINFORM returns
1024 lease-time only if it's specifically requested
1025 (maintaining standards) and the dhcp_lease_time utility
1026 has been taught to ask for it (restoring functionality).

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001038 Handle IPv4 interface-address labels in Linux. These are
1039 often used to emulate the old IP-alias addresses. Before,
1040 using --interface=eth0 would service all the addresses of
1041 eth0, including ones configured as aliases, which appear
1042 in ifconfig as eth0:0. Now, only addresses with the label
1043 eth0 are active. This is not backwards compatible: if you
1044 want to continue to bind the aliases too, you need to add
1045 eg. --interface=eth0:0 to the config.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001177 Add "constructed DHCP ranges" for DHCPv6. This is intended
1178 for IPv6 routers which get prefixes dynamically via prefix
1179 delegation. With suitable configuration, stateful DHCPv6
1180 and RA can happen automatically as prefixes are delegated
1181 and then deprecated, without having to re-write the
1182 dnsmasq configuration file or restart the daemon. Thanks to
1183 Steven Barth for extensive testing and development work on
1184 this idea.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001220 Allow a trailing '*' wildcard in all interface-name
1221 configurations. Thanks to Christian Parpart for the patch.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001223 Handle the situation where libc headers define
1224 SO_REUSEPORT, but the kernel in use doesn't, to cope with
1225 the introduction of this option to Linux. Thanks to Rich
1226 Felker for the bug report.
1227
1228 Update Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
1229
1230 Fix crash if the configured DHCP lease limit is
1231 reached. Regression occurred in 2.61. Thanks to Tsachi for
1232 the bug report.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001238 Fix regression which broke forwarding of queries sent via
1239 TCP which are not for A and AAAA and which were directed to
1240 non-default servers. Thanks to Niax for the bug report.
Simon Kelleyee86ce62012-12-07 11:54:46 +00001241
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001242 Fix failure to build with DHCP support excluded. Thanks to
1243 Gustavo Zacarias for the patch.
1244
1245 Fix nasty regression in 2.64 which completely broke caching.

Simon Kelley2e34ac12012-08-29 14:15:25 +01001248version 2.64
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001249 Handle DHCP FQDN options with all flag bits zero and
1250 --dhcp-client-update set. Thanks to Bernd Krumbroeck for
1251 spotting the problem.
Simon Kelley2e34ac12012-08-29 14:15:25 +01001252
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001253 Finesse the check for /etc/hosts names which conflict with
1254 DHCP names. Previously a name/address pair in /etc/hosts
1255 which didn't match the name/address of a DHCP lease would
1256 generate a warning. Now that only happens if there is not
1257 also a match. This allows multiple addresses for a name in
1258 /etc/hosts with one of them assigned via DHCP.
Simon Kelley12d71ed2012-08-30 15:16:41 +01001259
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001260 Fix broken vendor-option processing for BOOTP. Thanks to

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001281 Fix breakage of --host-record parsing, resulting in
1282 infinite loop at startup. Regression in 2.63. Thanks to
1283 Haim Gelfenbeyn for spotting this.
Simon Kelleye4807d82012-09-27 21:52:26 +01001284
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001285 Set SO_REUSEADDRESS and SO_V6ONLY options on the DHCPv6
1286 socket, this allows multiple instances of dnsmasq on a
1287 single machine, in the same way as for DHCPv4. Thanks to
1288 Gene Czarcinski and Vladislav Grishenko for work on this.
Simon Kelley20223102012-10-15 10:41:17 +01001289
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001290 Fix DHCPv6 to do access control correctly when it's
1291 configured with --listen-address. Thanks to
1292 Gene Czarcinski for sorting this out.
Simon Kelleybe6cfb42012-10-16 20:38:31 +01001293
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001294 Add a "wildcard" dhcp-range which works for any IPv6
1295 subnet, --dhcp-range=::,static Useful for Stateless
1296 DHCPv6. Thanks to Vladislav Grishenko for the patch.
Simon Kelley819ff4d2012-10-21 18:25:12 +01001297
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001298 Don't include lease-time in DHCPACK replies to DHCPINFORM
1299 queries, since RFC-2131 says we shouldn't. Thanks to
1300 Wouter Ibens for pointing this out.
Simon Kelley8e4b8792012-11-14 14:12:56 +00001301
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001302 Makefile tweak to do dependency checking on header files.
1303 Thanks to Johan Peeters for the patch.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001305 Check interface for outgoing unsolicited router
1306 advertisements, rather than relying on interface address
1307 configuration. Thanks to Gene Czarinski for the patch.
Simon Kelley29d28dd2012-12-03 14:05:59 +00001308
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001309 Handle better attempts to transmit on interfaces which are
1310 still doing DAD, and specifically do not just transmit
1311 without setting source address and interface, since this
1312 can cause very puzzling effects when a router
1313 advertisement goes astray. Thanks again to Gene Czarinski.
Simon Kelley29d28dd2012-12-03 14:05:59 +00001314
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001315 Get RA timers right when there is more than one

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001322 Check that tftp-root directories are accessible before
1323 start-up. Thanks to Daniel Veillard for the initial patch.
Simon Kelley8b3ae2f2012-06-13 13:43:49 +01001324
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001325 Allow more than one --tfp-root flag. The per-interface
1326 stuff is pointless without that.
Simon Kelley8b3ae2f2012-06-13 13:43:49 +01001327
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001328 Add --bind-dynamic. A hybrid mode between the default and
1329 --bind-interfaces which copes with dynamically created
1330 interfaces.
Simon Kelley54dd3932012-06-20 11:23:38 +01001331
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001332 A couple of fixes to the build system for Android. Thanks
1333 to Metin Kaya for the patches.
Simon Kelley8bc4cec2012-07-03 21:04:11 +01001334
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001335 Remove the interface:<interface> argument in --dhcp-range, and
1336 the interface argument to --enable-tftp. These were a
1337 still-born attempt to allow automatic isolated
1338 configuration by libvirt, but have never (to my knowledge)
1339 been used, had very strange semantics, and have been
1340 superseded by other mechanisms.
Simon Kelleyc4a7f902012-07-12 20:52:12 +01001341
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001342 Fixed bug logging filenames when duplicate dhcp-host
1343 addresses are found. Thanks to John Hanks for the patch.
Simon Kelley611ebc52012-07-16 16:23:46 +01001344
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001345 Fix regression in 2.61 which broke caching of CNAME
1346 chains. Thanks to Atul Gupta for the bug report.
Simon Kelley611ebc52012-07-16 16:23:46 +01001347
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001348 Allow the target of a --cname flag to be another --cname.
Simon Kelley42243212012-07-20 15:19:18 +01001349
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001350 Teach DHCPv6 about the RFC 4242 information-refresh-time
1351 option, and add parsing if the minutes, hours and days
1352 format for options. Thanks to Francois-Xavier Le Bail for
1353 the suggestion.
Simon Kelley42243212012-07-20 15:19:18 +01001354
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001355 Allow "w" (for week) as multiplier in lease times, as well
1356 as seconds, minutes, hours and days. Álvaro Gámez Machado
1357 spotted the omission.
Simon Kelleyad094272012-08-10 17:10:54 +01001358

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001373 Cope with router-solict packets which don't have a valid
1374 source address. Thanks to Vladislav Grishenko for the patch.
Simon Kelleyf632e562012-05-12 15:05:34 +01001375
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001376 Fixed bug which caused missing periodic router

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001380 Fixed bug which broke DHCPv6/RA with prefix lengths
1381 which are not divisible by 8. Thanks to Andre Coetzee
1382 for spotting this.
Simon Kelleyc64b7f62012-05-18 10:19:59 +01001383
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001384 Fix non-response to router-solicitations when
1385 router-advertisement configured, but DHCPv6 not
1386 configured. Thanks to Marien Zwart for the patch.
Simon Kelley18c63ef2012-05-21 14:34:15 +01001387
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001388 Add --dns-rr, to allow arbitrary DNS resource records.
Simon Kelley9f7f3b12012-05-28 21:39:57 +01001389
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001390 Fixed bug which broke RA scheduling when an interface had
1391 two addresses in the same network. Thanks to Jim Bos for
1392 his help nailing this.
Simon Kelley5ae34bf2012-06-04 21:14:03 +01001393

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001395 Re-write interface discovery code on *BSD to use
1396 getifaddrs. This is more portable, more straightforward,
1397 and allows us to find the prefix length for IPv6
1398 addresses.
Simon Kelleyeabc6dd2012-03-07 20:28:20 +00001399
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001400 Add ra-names, ra-stateless and slaac keywords for DHCPv6.
1401 Dnsmasq can now synthesise AAAA records for dual-stack
1402 hosts which get IPv6 addresses via SLAAC. It is also now
1403 possible to use SLAAC and stateless DHCPv6, and to
1404 tell clients to use SLAAC addresses as well as DHCP ones.
1405 Thanks to Dave Taht for help with this.
Simon Kelley7023e382012-03-09 12:05:49 +00001406
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001407 Add --dhcp-duid to allow DUID-EN uids to be used.
Simon Kelley8b372702012-03-09 17:45:10 +00001408
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001409 Explicitly send DHCPv6 replies to the correct port, instead
1410 of relying on clients to send requests with the correct
1411 source address, since at least one client in the wild gets
1412 this wrong. Thanks to Conrad Kostecki for help tracking
1413 this down.
Simon Kelleyeabc6dd2012-03-07 20:28:20 +00001414
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001415 Send a preference value of 255 in DHCPv6 replies when
1416 --dhcp-authoritative is in effect. This tells clients not
1417 to wait around for other DHCP servers.
Simon Kelley8643ec72012-03-12 20:04:14 +00001418
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001419 Better logging of DHCPv6 options.
Simon Kelley8643ec72012-03-12 20:04:14 +00001420
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001421 Add --host-record. Thanks to Rob Zwissler for the
1422 suggestion.
Simon Kelleye759d422012-03-16 13:18:57 +00001423
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001424 Invoke the DHCP script with action "tftp" when a TFTP file
1425 transfer completes. The size of the file, address to which
1426 it was sent and complete pathname are supplied. Note that
1427 version 2.60 introduced some script incompatibilities
1428 associated with DHCPv6, and this is a further change. To
1429 be safe, scripts should ignore unknown actions, and if
1430 not IPv6-aware, should exit if the environment
1431 variable DNSMASQ_IAID is set. The use-case for this is
1432 to track netboot/install. Suggestion from Shantanu
1433 Gadgil.
Simon Kelleya9530962012-03-20 22:07:35 +00001434
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001435 Update contrib/port-forward/dnsmasq-portforward to reflect
1436 the above.
Simon Kelleya9530962012-03-20 22:07:35 +00001437
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001438 Set the environment variable DNSMASQ_LOG_DHCP when running
1439 the script id --log-dhcp is in effect, so that script can
1440 taylor their logging verbosity. Suggestion from Malte
1441 Forkel.
Simon Kelleya9530962012-03-20 22:07:35 +00001442
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001443 Arrange that addresses specified with --listen-address
1444 work even if there is no interface carrying the
1445 address. This is chiefly useful for IPv4 loopback
1446 addresses, where any address in 127.0.0.0/8 is a valid
1447 loopback address, but normally only 127.0.0.1 appears on
1448 the lo interface. Thanks to Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre for
1449 the idea and initial patch.
Simon Kelley7d2b5c92012-03-23 10:00:02 +00001450
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001451 Fix crash, introduced in 2.60, when a DHCPINFORM is
1452 received from a network which has no valid dhcp-range.
1453 Thanks to Stephane Glondu for the bug report.
Simon Kelleyc8257542012-03-28 21:15:41 +01001454
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001455 Add a new DHCP lease time keyword, "deprecated" for
1456 --dhcp-range. This is only valid for IPv6, and sets the
1457 preferred lease time for both DHCP and RA to zero. The
1458 effect is that clients can continue to use the address
1459 for existing connections, but new connections will use
1460 other addresses, if they exist. This makes hitless
1461 renumbering at least possible.
Simon Kelley18f0fb02012-03-31 21:18:55 +01001462
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001463 Fix bug in address6_available() which caused DHCPv6 lease
1464 acquisition to fail if more than one dhcp-range in use.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001473 Don't cache data from non-recursive nameservers, since it
1474 may erroneously look like a valid CNAME to a non-existent
1475 name. Thanks to Ben Winslow for finding this.
Simon Kelleyd1c759c2012-04-16 17:26:19 +01001476
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001477 Call SO_BINDTODEVICE on the DHCP socket(s) when doing DHCP
1478 on exactly one interface and --bind-interfaces is set. This
1479 makes the OpenStack use-case of one dnsmasq per virtual
1480 interface work. This is only available on Linux; it's not
1481 supported on other platforms. Thanks to Vishvananda Ishaya
1482 and the OpenStack team for the suggestion.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001486 Give correct from-cache answers to explicit CNAME queries.
1487 Thanks to Rob Zwissler for spotting this.
1488
1489 Add --tftp-lowercase option. Thanks to Oliver Rath for the
1490 patch.
1491
1492 Ensure that the DBus DhcpLeaseUpdated events are generated
1493 when a lease goes through INIT_REBOOT state, even if the
1494 dhcp-script is not in use. Thanks to Antoaneta-Ecaterina
1495 Ene for the patch.
1496
1497 Fix failure of TFTP over IPv4 on OpenBSD platform. Thanks
1498 to Brad Smith for spotting this.

Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001501version 2.60
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001502 Fix compilation problem in Mac OS X Lion. Thanks to Olaf
1503 Flebbe for the patch.
Simon Kelley74c95c22011-10-19 09:33:39 +01001504
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001505 Fix DHCP when using --listen-address with an IP address
1506 which is not the primary address of an interface.
Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001507
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001508 Add --dhcp-client-update option.
Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001509
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001510 Add Lua integration. Dnsmasq can now execute a DHCP
1511 lease-change script written in Lua. This needs to be
1512 enabled at compile time by setting HAVE_LUASCRIPT in
1513 src/config.h or running "make COPTS=-DHAVE_LUASCRIPT"
1514 Thanks to Jan-Piet Mens for the idea and proof-of-concept
1515 implementation.
Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001516
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001517 Tidied src/config.h to distinguish between
1518 platform-dependent compile-time options which are selected
1519 automatically, and builder-selectable compile time
1520 options. Document the latter better, and describe how to
1521 set them from the make command line.
Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001522
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001523 Tidied up IPPROTO_IP/SOL_IP (and IPv6 equivalent)
1524 confusion. IPPROTO_IP works everywhere now.
Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001525
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001526 Set TOS on DHCP sockets, this improves things on busy
1527 wireless networks. Thanks to Dave Taht for the patch.
Simon Kelleya2761752012-01-18 16:07:21 +00001528
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001529 Determine VERSION automatically based on git magic:
1530 release tags or hash values.
Simon Kelleya2761752012-01-18 16:07:21 +00001531
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001532 Improve start-up speed when reading large hosts files
1533 containing many distinct addresses.
Simon Kelley9bbc8872012-02-09 21:33:09 +00001534
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001535 Fix problem if dnsmasq is started without the stdin,
1536 stdout and stderr file descriptors open. This can manifest
1537 itself as 100% CPU use. Thanks to Chris Moore for finding
1538 this.
Simon Kelley751d6f42012-02-10 15:24:51 +00001539
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001540 Fix shell-scripting bug in bld/pkg-wrapper. Thanks to
1541 Mark Mitchell for the patch.
Simon Kelleyb36ae192012-02-13 12:54:34 +00001542
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001543 Allow the TFP server or boot server in --pxe-service, to
1544 be a domain name instead of an IP address. This allows for
1545 round-robin to multiple servers, in the same way as
1546 --dhcp-boot. A good suggestion from Cristiano Cumer.
Simon Kelley1adadf52012-02-13 22:15:58 +00001547
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001548 Support BUILDDIR variable in the Makefile. Allows builds
1549 for multiple archs from the same source tree with eg.
1550 make BUILDDIR=linux (relative to dnsmasq tree)
1551 make BUILDDIR=/tmp/openbsd (absolute path)
1552 If BUILDDIR is not set, compilation happens in the src
1553 directory, as before. Suggestion from Mark Mitchell.
Simon Kelleyac8540c2012-02-26 20:57:31 +00001554
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001555 Support DHCPv6. Support is there for the sort of things
1556 the existing v4 server does, including tags, options,
1557 static addresses and relay support. Missing is prefix
1558 delegation, which is probably not required in the dnsmasq
1559 niche, and an easy way to accept prefix delegations from
1560 an upstream DHCPv6 server, which is. Future plans include
1561 support for DHCPv6 router option and MAC address option
1562 (to make selecting clients by MAC address work like IPv4).
1563 These will be added as the standards mature.
1564 This code has been tested, but this is the first release,
1565 so don't bet the farm on it just yet. Many thanks to all
1566 testers who have got it this far.
Simon Kelley552af8b2012-02-29 20:10:31 +00001567
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001568 Support IPv6 router advertisements. This is a
1569 simple-minded implementation, aimed at providing the
1570 vestigial RA needed to go alongside IPv6. Is picks up
1571 configuration from the DHCPv6 conf, and should just need
1572 enabling with --enable-ra.
1573
1574 Fix long-standing wrinkle with --localise-queries that
1575 could result in wrong answers when DNS packets arrive
1576 via an interface other than the expected one. Thanks to
1577 Lorenzo Milesi and John Hanks for spotting this one.
1578
1579 Update French translation. Thanks to Gildas Le Nadan.
1580
1581 Update Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.

Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001584version 2.59
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001585 Fix regression in 2.58 which caused failure to start up
1586 with some combinations of dnsmasq config and IPv6 kernel
1587 network config. Thanks to Brielle Bruns for the bug
1588 report.
Simon Kelleyc72daea2012-01-05 21:33:27 +00001589
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001590 Improve dnsmasq's behaviour when network interfaces are
1591 still doing duplicate address detection (DAD). Previously,
1592 dnsmasq would wait up to 20 seconds at start-up for the
1593 DAD state to terminate. This is broken for bridge
1594 interfaces on recent Linux kernels, which don't start DAD
1595 until the bridge comes up, and so can take arbitrary
1596 time. The new behaviour lets dnsmasq poll for an arbitrary
1597 time whilst providing service on other interfaces. Thanks
1598 to Stephen Hemminger for pointing out the problem.
Simon Kelley74c95c22011-10-19 09:33:39 +01001599
1600
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001601version 2.58
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001602 Provide a definition of the SA_SIZE macro where it's
1603 missing. Fixes build failure on openBSD.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001604
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001605 Don't include a zero terminator at the end of messages
1606 sent to /dev/log when /dev/log is a datagram socket.
1607 Thanks to Didier Rabound for spotting the problem.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001608
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001609 Add --dhcp-sequential-ip flag, to force allocation of IP
1610 addresses in ascending order. Note that the default
1611 pseudo-random mode is in general better but some
1612 server-deployment applications need this.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001613
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001614 Fix problem where a server-id of 0.0.0.0 is sent to a
1615 client when a dhcp-relay is in use if a client renews a
1616 lease after dnsmasq restart and before any clients on the
1617 subnet get a new lease. Thanks to Mike Ruiz for assistance
1618 in chasing this one down.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001619
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001620 Don't return NXDOMAIN to an AAAA query if we have CNAME
1621 which points to an A record only: NODATA is the correct
1622 reply in this case. Thanks to Tom Fernandes for spotting
1623 the problem.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001624
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001625 Relax the need to supply a netmask in --dhcp-range for
1626 networks which use a DHCP relay. Whilst this is still
1627 desirable, in the absence of a netmask dnsmasq will use
1628 a default based on the class (A, B, or C) of the address.
1629 This should at least remove a cause of mysterious failure
1630 for people using RFC1918 addresses and relays.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001631
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001632 Add support for Linux conntrack connection marking. If
1633 enabled with --conntrack, the connection mark for incoming
1634 DNS queries will be copied to the outgoing connections
1635 used to answer those queries. This allows clever firewall
1636 and accounting stuff. Only available if dnsmasq is
1637 compiled with HAVE_CONNTRACK and adds a dependency on
1638 libnetfilter-conntrack. Thanks to Ed Wildgoose for the
1639 initial idea, testing and sponsorship of this function.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001640
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001641 Provide a sane error message when someone attempts to
1642 match a tag in --dhcp-host.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001643
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001644 Tweak the behaviour of --domain-needed, to avoid problems
1645 with recursive nameservers downstream of dnsmasq. The new
1646 behaviour only stops A and AAAA queries, and returns
1647 NODATA rather than NXDOMAIN replies.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001648
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001649 Efficiency fix for very large DHCP configurations, thanks
1650 to James Gartrell and Mike Ruiz for help with this.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001651
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001652 Allow the TFTP-server address in --dhcp-boot to be a
1653 domain-name which is looked up in /etc/hosts. This can
1654 give multiple IP addresses which are used round-robin,
1655 thus doing TFTP server load-balancing. Thanks to Sushil
1656 Agrawal for the patch.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001657
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001658 When two tagged dhcp-options for a particular option
1659 number are both valid, use the one which is valid without
1660 a tag from the dhcp-range. Allows overriding of the value
1661 of a DHCP option for a particular host as well as
1662 per-network values. So
1663 --dhcp-range=set:interface1,......
1664 --dhcp-host=set:myhost,.....
1665 --dhcp-option=tag:interface1,option:nis-domain,"domain1"
1666 --dhcp-option=tag:myhost,option:nis-domain,"domain2"
1667 will set the NIS-domain to domain1 for hosts in the range, but
1668 override that to domain2 for a particular host.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001669
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001670 Fix bug which resulted in truncated files and timeouts for
1671 some TFTP transfers. The bug only occurs with netascii
1672 transfers and needs an unfortunate relationship between
1673 file size, blocksize and the number of newlines in the
1674 last block before it manifests itself. Many thanks to
1675 Alkis Georgopoulos for spotting the problem and providing
1676 a comprehensive test-case.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001677
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001678 Fix regression in TFTP server on *BSD platforms introduced
1679 in version 2.56, due to confusion with sockaddr
1680 length. Many thanks to Loic Pefferkorn for finding this.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001681
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001682 Support scope-ids in IPv6 addresses of nameservers from
1683 /etc/resolv.conf and in --server options. Eg
1684 nameserver fe80::202:a412:4512:7bbf%eth0 or
1685 server=fe80::202:a412:4512:7bbf%eth0. Thanks to
1686 Michael Stapelberg for the suggestion.
Simon Kelley7de060b2011-08-26 17:24:52 +01001687
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001688 Update Polish translation, thanks to Jan Psota.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001694 Add patches to allow build under Android.
Simon Kelley572b41e2011-02-18 18:11:18 +00001695
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001696 Provide our own header for the DNS protocol, rather than
1697 relying on arpa/nameser.h. This has proved more or less
1698 defective over the years and the final straw is that it's
1699 effectively empty on Android.
Simon Kelley572b41e2011-02-18 18:11:18 +00001700
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001701 Fix regression in 2.56 which caused hex constants in
1702 configuration to be rejected if they contain the '*'
1703 wildcard.
Simon Kelley572b41e2011-02-18 18:11:18 +00001704
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001705 Correct wrong casts of arguments to ctype.h functions,
1706 isdigit(), isxdigit() etc. Thanks to Matthias Andree for
1707 spotting this.
Simon Kelley572b41e2011-02-18 18:11:18 +00001708
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001709 Allow build with IDN support independently from i18n.
1710 IDN support continues to be included automatically
1711 when i18n is included.
1712 'make COPTS=-DHAVE_IDN' is the magic incantation.
Simon Kelley572b41e2011-02-18 18:11:18 +00001713
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001714 Modify check on extraneous command line junk (added in
1715 2.56) so that it doesn't complain about extra _empty_
1716 arguments. Otherwise this breaks libvirt.
Simon Kelley572b41e2011-02-18 18:11:18 +00001717

Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001719version 2.56
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001720 Add a patch to allow dnsmasq to get interface names right in a
1721 Solaris zone. Thanks to Dj Padzensky for this.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001722
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001723 Improve data-type parsing heuristics so that
1724 --dhcp-option=option:domain-search,.
1725 treats the value as a string and not an IP address.
1726 Thanks to Clemens Fischer for spotting that.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001727
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001728 Add IPv6 support to the TFTP server. Many thanks to Jan
1729 'RedBully' Seiffert for the patches.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001730
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001731 Log DNS queries at level LOG_INFO, rather then
1732 LOG_DEBUG. This makes things consistent with DHCP
1733 logging. Thanks to Adam Pribyl for spotting the problem.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001734
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001735 Ensure that dnsmasq terminates cleanly when using
1736 --syslog-async even if it cannot make a connection to the
1737 syslogd.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001738
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001739 Add --add-mac option. This is to support currently
1740 experimental DNS filtering facilities. Thanks to Benjamin
1741 Petrin for the original patch.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001742
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001743 Fix bug which meant that tags were ignored in dhcp-range
1744 configuration specifying PXE-proxy service. Thanks to
1745 Cristiano Cumer for spotting this.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001746
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001747 Raise an error if there is extra junk, not part of an
1748 option, on the command line.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001749
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001750 Flag a couple of log messages in cache.c as coming from
1751 the DHCP subsystem. Thanks to Olaf Westrik for the patch.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001752
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001753 Omit timestamps from logs when a) logging to stderr and
1754 b) --keep-in-foreground is set. The logging facility on the
1755 other end of stderr can be assumed to supply them. Thanks
1756 to John Hallam for the patch.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001757
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001758 Don't complain about strings longer than 255 characters in
1759 --txt-record, just split the long strings into 255
1760 character chunks instead.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001761
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001762 Fix crash on double-free. This bug can only happen when
1763 dhcp-script is in use and then only in rare circumstances
1764 triggered by high DHCP transaction rate and a slow
1765 script. Thanks to Ferenc Wagner for finding the problem.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001766
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001767 Only log that a file has been sent by TFTP after the
1768 transfer has completed successfully.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001769
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001770 A good suggestion from Ferenc Wagner: extend
1771 the --domain option to allow this sort of thing:
1772 --domain=thekelleys.org.uk,192.168.0.0/24,local

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001777 Tighten up syntax checking of hex constants in the config
1778 file. Thanks to Fred Damen for spotting this.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001779
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001780 Add dnsmasq logo/icon, contributed by Justin Swift. Many
1781 thanks for that.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001782
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001783 Never cache DNS replies which have the 'cd' bit set, or
1784 which result from queries forwarded with the 'cd' bit
1785 set. The 'cd' bit instructs a DNSSEC validating server
1786 upstream to ignore signature failures and return replies
1787 anyway. Without this change it's possible to pollute the
1788 dnsmasq cache with bad data by making a query with the
1789 'cd' bit set and subsequent queries would return this data
1790 without its being marked as suspect. Thanks to Anders
1791 Kaseorg for pointing out this problem.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001792
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001793 Add --proxy-dnssec flag, for compliance with RFC
1794 4035. Dnsmasq will now clear the 'ad' bit in answers returned
1795 from upstream validating nameservers unless this option is
1796 set.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001797
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001798 Allow a filename of "-" for --conf-file to read
1799 stdin. Suggestion from Timothy Redaelli.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001800
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001801 Rotate the order of SRV records in replies, to provide
1802 round-robin load balancing when all the priorities are
1803 equal. Thanks to Peter McKinney for the suggestion.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001804
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001805 Edit
1806 contrib/MacOSX-launchd/uk.org.thekelleys.dnsmasq.plist
1807 so that it doesn't log all queries to a file by
1808 default. Thanks again to Peter McKinney.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001809
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001810 By default, setting an IPv4 address for a domain but not
1811 an IPv6 address causes dnsmasq to return
Ville Skyttäfaaf3062018-01-14 17:32:52 +00001812 a NODATA reply for IPv6 (or vice-versa). So
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001813 --address=/google.com/1.2.3.4 stops IPv6 queries for
1814 *google.com from being forwarded. Make it possible to
1815 override this behaviour by defining the semantics if the
1816 same domain appears in both --server and --address.
1817 In that case, the --address has priority for the address
1818 family in which is appears, but the --server has priority
1819 of the address family which doesn't appear in --address
1820 So:
1821 --address=/google.com/1.2.3.4
1822 --server=/google.com/#
1823 will return 1.2.3.4 for IPv4 queries for *.google.com but
1824 forward IPv6 queries to the normal upstream nameserver.
1825 Similarly when setting an IPv6 address
1826 only this will allow forwarding of IPv4 queries. Thanks to
1827 William for pointing out the need for this.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001828
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001829 Allow more than one --dhcp-optsfile and --dhcp-hostsfile
1830 and make them understand directories as arguments in the
1831 same way as --addn-hosts. Suggestion from John Hanks.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001832
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001833 Ignore rebinding requests for leases we don't know
1834 about. Rebind is broadcast, so we might get to overhear a
1835 request meant for another DHCP server. NAKing this is
1836 wrong. Thanks to Brad D'Hondt for assistance with this.
1837
1838 Fix cosmetic bug which produced strange output when
1839 dumping cache statistics with some configurations. Thanks
1840 to Fedor Kozhevnikov for spotting this.
Simon Kelley28866e92011-02-14 20:19:14 +00001841

Simon Kelleyc52e1892010-06-07 22:01:39 +01001843version 2.55
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001844 Fix crash when /etc/ethers is in use. Thanks to
1845 Gianluigi Tiesi for finding this.
Simon Kelleyc52e1892010-06-07 22:01:39 +01001846
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001847 Fix crash in netlink_multicast(). Thanks to Arno Wald for
1848 finding this one.
Simon Kelleyc52e1892010-06-07 22:01:39 +01001849
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001850 Allow the empty domain "." in dhcp domain-search (119)
1851 options.
Simon Kelleyc52e1892010-06-07 22:01:39 +01001852

1854version 2.54
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001855 There is no version 2.54 to avoid confusion with 2.53,
1856 which incorrectly identifies itself as 2.54.

1858
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001859version 2.53
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001860 Fix failure to compile on Debian/kFreeBSD. Thanks to
1861 Axel Beckert and Petr Salinger.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001862
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001863 Fix code to avoid scary strict-aliasing warnings
1864 generated by gcc 4.4.
1865
1866 Added FAQ entry warning about DHCP failures with Vista
1867 when firewalls block 255.255.255.255.
1868
1869 Fixed bug which caused bad things to happen if a
1870 resolv.conf file which exists is subsequently removed.
1871 Thanks to Nikolai Saoukh for the patch.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001872
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001873 Rationalised the DHCP tag system. Every configuration item
1874 which can set a tag does so by adding "set:<tag>" and
1875 every configuration item which is conditional on a tag is
1876 made so by "tag:<tag>". The NOT operator changes to '!',
1877 which is a bit more intuitive too. Dhcp-host directives
1878 can set more than one tag now. The old '#' NOT,
1879 "net:" prefix and no-prefixes are still honoured, so
1880 no existing config file needs to be changed, but
1881 the documentation and new-style config files should be
1882 much less confusing.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001883
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001884 Added --tag-if to allow boolean operations on tags.
1885 This allows complicated logic to be clearer and more
1886 general. A great suggestion from Richard Voigt.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001887
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001888 Add broadcast/unicast information to DHCP logging.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001889
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001890 Allow --dhcp-broadcast to be unconditional.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001891
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001892 Fixed incorrect behaviour with NOT <tag> conditionals in
1893 dhcp-options. Thanks to Max Turkewitz for assistance
1894 finding this.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001895
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001896 If we send vendor-class encapsulated options based on the
1897 vendor-class supplied by the client, and no explicit
1898 vendor-class option is given, echo back the vendor-class
1899 from the client.
1900
1901 Fix bug which stopped dnsmasq from matching both a
1902 circuitid and a remoteid. Thanks to Ignacio Bravo for
1903 finding this.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001904
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001905 Add --dhcp-proxy, which makes it possible to configure
1906 dnsmasq to use a DHCP relay agent as a full proxy, with
1907 all DHCP messages passing through the proxy. This is
1908 useful if the relay adds extra information to the packets
1909 it forwards, but cannot be configured with the RFC 5107
1910 server-override option.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001911
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001912 Added interface:<iface name> part to dhcp-range. The
1913 semantics of this are very odd at first sight, but it
1914 allows a single line of the form
1915 dhcp-range=interface:virt0,192.168.0.4,192.168.0.200
1916 to be added to dnsmasq configuration which then supplies
1917 DHCP and DNS services to that interface, without affecting
1918 what services are supplied to other interfaces and
1919 irrespective of the existence or lack of
1920 interface=<interface>
1921 lines elsewhere in the dnsmasq configuration. The idea is
1922 that such a line can be added automatically by libvirt
1923 or equivalent systems, without disturbing any manual
1924 configuration.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001925
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001926 Similarly to the above, allow --enable-tftp=<interface>
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001927
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001928 Allow a TFTP root to be set separately for requests via
1929 different interfaces, --tftp-root=<path>,<interface>
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001930
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001931 Correctly handle and log clashes between CNAMES and
1932 DNS names being given to DHCP leases. This fixes a bug
1933 which caused nonsense IP addresses to be logged. Thanks to
1934 Sergei Zhirikov for finding and analysing the problem.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001935
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001936 Tweak flush_log so as to avoid leaving the log
1937 file in non-blocking mode. O_NONBLOCK is a property of the
1938 file, not the process/descriptor.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001939
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001940 Fix contrib/Solaris10/create_package
1941 (/usr/man -> /usr/share/man) Thanks to Vita Batrla.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001942
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001943 Fix a problem where, if a client got a lease, then went
1944 to another subnet and got another lease, then moved back,
1945 it couldn't resume the old lease, but would instead get
1946 a new address. Thanks to Leonardo Rodrigues for spotting
1947 this and testing the fix.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001948
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001949 Fix weird bug which sometimes omitted certain characters
1950 from the start of quoted strings in dhcp-options. Thanks
1951 to Dayton Turner for spotting the problem.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001952
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001953 Add facility to redirect some domains to the standard
1954 upstream servers: this allows something like
1955 --server=/google.com/1.2.3.4 --server=/www.google.com/#
1956 which will send queries for *.google.com to 1.2.3.4,
1957 except *www.google.com which will be forwarded as usual.
1958 Thanks to AJ Weber for prompting this addition.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001959
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001960 Improve the hash-algorithm used to generate IP addresses
1961 from MAC addresses during initial DHCP address
1962 allocation. This improves performance when large numbers
1963 of hosts with similar MAC addresses all try and get an IP
1964 address at the same time. Thanks to Paul Smith for his
1965 work on this.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001966
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001967 Tweak DHCP code so that --bridge-interface can be used to
1968 select which IP alias of an interface should be used for
1969 DHCP purposes on Linux. If eth0 has an alias eth0:dhcp
1970 then adding --bridge-interface=eth0:dhcp,eth0 will use
1971 the address of eth0:dhcp to determine the correct subnet
1972 for DHCP address allocation. Thanks to Pawel Golaszewski
1973 for prompting this and Eric Cooper for further testing.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001974
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001975 Add --dhcp-generate-names. Suggestion by Ferenc Wagner.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001976
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001977 Tweak DNS server selection algorithm when there is more
1978 than one server available for a domain, eg.
1979 --server=/mydomain/1.1.1.1
1980 --server=/mydomain/2.2.2.2
1981 Thanks to Alberto Cuesta-Canada for spotting a weakness
1982 here.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001983
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001984 Add --max-ttl. Thanks to Fredrik Ringertz for the patch.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001985
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001986 Allow --log-facility=- to force all logging to
1987 stderr. Suggestion from Clemens Fischer.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001988
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001989 Fix regression which caused configuration like
1990 --address=/.domain.com/1.2.3.4 to be rejected. The dot to the
1991 left of the domain has been implied and not required for a
1992 long time, but it should be accepted for backward
1993 compatibility. Thanks to Andrew Burcin for spotting this.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001994
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001995 Add --rebind-domain-ok and --rebind-localhost-ok.
1996 Suggestion from Clemens Fischer.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01001997
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01001998 Log replies to queries of type TXT, when --log-queries
1999 is set.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01002000
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002001 Fix compiler warnings when compiled with -DNO_DHCP. Thanks
2002 to Shantanu Gadgil for the patch.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01002003
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002004 Updated French translation. Thanks to Gildas Le Nadan.
Simon Kelley8ef5ada2010-06-03 19:42:45 +01002005
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002006 Updated Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.

2008 Updated German translation. Thanks to Matthias Andree.
2009
2010 Added contrib/static-arp, thanks to Darren Hoo.
2011
2012 Fix corruption of the domain when a name from /etc/hosts
2013 overrides one supplied by a DHCP client. Thanks to Fedor
2014 Kozhevnikov for spotting the problem.
2015
2016 Updated Spanish translation. Thanks to Chris Chatham.

2018
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002019version 2.52
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002020 Work around a Linux kernel bug which insists that the
2021 length of the option passed to setsockopt must be at least
2022 sizeof(int) bytes, even if we're calling SO_BINDTODEVICE
2023 and the device name is "lo". Note that this is fixed
2024 in kernel 2.6.31, but the workaround is harmless and
2025 allows earlier kernels to be used. Also fix dnsmasq
2026 bug which reported the wrong address when this failed.
2027 Thanks to Fedor for finding this.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002028
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002029 The API for IPv6 PKTINFO changed around Linux kernel
2030 2.6.14. Workaround the case where dnsmasq is compiled
2031 against newer headers, but then run on an old kernel:
2032 necessary for some *WRT distros.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002033
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002034 Re-read the set of network interfaces when re-loading
2035 /etc/resolv.conf if --bind-interfaces is not set. This
2036 handles the case that loopback interfaces do not exist
2037 when dnsmasq is first started.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002038
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002039 Tweak the PXE code to support port 4011. This should
2040 reduce broadcasts and make things more reliable when other
2041 servers are around. It also improves inter-operability
2042 with certain clients.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002043
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002044 Make a pxe-service configuration with no filename or boot
2045 service type legal: this does a local boot. eg.
2046 pxe-service=x86PC, "Local boot"
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002047
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002048 Be more conservative in detecting "A for A"
2049 queries. Dnsmasq checks if the name in a type=A query looks
2050 like a dotted-quad IP address and answers the query itself
2051 if so, rather than forwarding it. Previously dnsmasq
2052 relied in the library function inet_addr() to convert
2053 addresses, and that will accept some things which are
2054 confusing in this context, like 1.2.3 or even just
2055 1234. Now we only do A for A processing for four decimal
2056 numbers delimited by dots.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002057
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002058 A couple of tweaks to fix compilation on Solaris. Thanks
2059 to Joel Macklow for help with this.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002060
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002061 Another Solaris compilation tweak, needed for Solaris
2062 2009.06. Thanks to Lee Essen for that.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002063
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002064 Added extract packaging stuff from Lee Essen to
2065 contrib/Solaris10.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002066
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002067 Increased the default limit on number of leases to 1000
2068 (from 150). This is mainly a defence against DoS attacks,
2069 and for the average "one for two class C networks"
2070 installation, IP address exhaustion does that just as
2071 well. Making the limit greater than the number of IP
2072 addresses available in such an installation removes a
2073 surprise which otherwise can catch people out.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002075 Removed extraneous trailing space in the value of the
2076 DNSMASQ_TIME_REMAINING DNSMASQ_LEASE_LENGTH and
2077 DNSMASQ_LEASE_EXPIRES environment variables. Thanks to
2078 Gildas Le Nadan for spotting this.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002079
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002080 Provide the network-id tags for a DHCP transaction to
2081 the lease-change script in the environment variable
2082 DNSMASQ_TAGS. A good suggestion from Gildas Le Nadan.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002083
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002084 Add support for RFC3925 "Vendor-Identifying Vendor
2085 Options". The syntax looks like this:
2086 --dhcp-option=vi-encap:<enterprise number>, .........
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002087
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002088 Add support to --dhcp-match to allow matching against
2089 RFC3925 "Vendor-Identifying Vendor Classes". The syntax
2090 looks like this:
2091 --dhcp-match=tag,vi-encap<enterprise number>, <value>
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002092
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002093 Add some application specific code to assist in
2094 implementing the Broadband forum TR069 CPE-WAN
2095 specification. The details are in contrib/CPE-WAN/README
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002096
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002097 Increase the default DNS packet size limit to 4096, as
2098 recommended by RFC5625 section 4.4.3. This can be
2099 reconfigured using --edns-packet-max if needed. Thanks to
2100 Francis Dupont for pointing this out.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002101
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002102 Rewrite query-ids even for TSIG signed packets, since
2103 this is allowed by RFC5625 section 4.5.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002104
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002105 Use getopt_long by default on OS X. It has been supported
2106 since version 10.3.0. Thanks to Arek Dreyer for spotting
2107 this.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002108
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002109 Added up-to-date startup configuration for MacOSX/launchd
2110 in contrib/MacOSX-launchd. Thanks to Arek Dreyer for
2111 providing this.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002112
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002113 Fix link error when including Dbus but excluding DHCP.
2114 Thanks to Oschtan for the bug report.
Simon Kelley316e2732010-01-22 20:16:09 +00002115
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002116 Updated French translation. Thanks to Gildas Le Nadan.
2117
2118 Updated Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
2119
2120 Updated Spanish translation. Thanks to Chris Chatham.
2121
2122 Fixed confusion about domains, when looking up DHCP hosts
2123 in /etc/hosts. This could cause spurious "Ignoring
2124 domain..." messages. Thanks to Fedor Kozhevnikov for
2125 finding and analysing the problem.
2126
2127
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01002128version 2.51
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002129 Add support for internationalised DNS. Non-ASCII characters
2130 in domain names found in /etc/hosts, /etc/ethers and
2131 /etc/dnsmasq.conf will be correctly handled by translation to
2132 punycode, as specified in RFC3490. This function is only
2133 available if dnsmasq is compiled with internationalisation
2134 support, and adds a dependency on GNU libidn. Without i18n
2135 support, dnsmasq continues to be compilable with just
2136 standard tools. Thanks to Yves Dorfsman for the
2137 suggestion.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01002138
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002139 Add two more environment variables for lease-change scripts:
2140 First, DNSMASQ_SUPPLIED_HOSTNAME; this is set to the hostname
2141 supplied by a client, even if the actual hostname used is
2142 over-ridden by dhcp-host or dhcp-ignore-names directives.
2143 Also DNSMASQ_RELAY_ADDRESS which gives the address of
2144 a DHCP relay, if used.
2145 Suggestions from Michael Rack.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01002146
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002147 Fix regression which broke echo of relay-agent
2148 options. Thanks to Michael Rack for spotting this.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01002149
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002150 Don't treat option 67 as being interchangeable with
2151 dhcp-boot parameters if it's specified as
2152 dhcp-option-force.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01002153
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002154 Make the code to call scripts on lease-change compile-time
2155 optional. It can be switched off by editing src/config.h
2156 or building with "make COPTS=-DNO_SCRIPT".
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01002157
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002158 Make the TFTP server cope with filenames from Windows/DOS
2159 which use '\' as pathname separator. Thanks to Ralf for
2160 the patch.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01002161
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002162 Updated Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01002163
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002164 Warn if an IP address is duplicated in /etc/ethers. Thanks
2165 to Felix Schwarz for pointing this out.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01002166
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002167 Teach --conf-dir to take an option list of file suffices
2168 which will be ignored when scanning the directory. Useful
2169 for backup files etc. Thanks to Helmut Hullen for the
2170 suggestion.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01002171
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002172 Add new DHCP option named tftpserver-address, which
2173 corresponds to the third argument of dhcp-boot. This
2174 allows the complete functionality of dhcp-boot to be
2175 replicated with dhcp-option. Useful when using
2176 dhcp-optsfile.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01002177
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002178 Test which upstream nameserver to use every 10 seconds
2179 or 50 queries and not just when a query times out and
2180 is retried. This should improve performance when there
2181 is a slow nameserver in the list. Thanks to Joe for the
2182 suggestion.
Simon Kelley1f15b812009-10-13 17:49:32 +01002183
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002184 Don't do any PXE processing, even for clients with the
2185 correct vendorclass, unless at least one pxe-prompt or
2186 pxe-service option is given. This stops dnsmasq
2187 interfering with proxy PXE subsystems when it is just
2188 the DHCP server. Thanks to Spencer Clark for spotting this.
2189
2190 Limit the blocksize used for TFTP transfers to a value
2191 which avoids packet fragmentation, based on the MTU of the
2192 local interface. Many netboot ROMs can't cope with
2193 fragmented packets.
2194
2195 Honour dhcp-ignore configuration for PXE and proxy-PXE
2196 requests. Thanks to Niels Basjes for the bug report.
2197
2198 Updated French translation. Thanks to Gildas Le Nadan.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002202 Fix security problem which allowed any host permitted to
2203 do TFTP to possibly compromise dnsmasq by remote buffer
2204 overflow when TFTP enabled. Thanks to Core Security
2205 Technologies and Iván Arce, Pablo Hernán Jorge, Alejandro

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002217 Fix regression in 2.48 which disables the lease-change
2218 script. Thanks to Jose Luis Duran for spotting this.
Simon Kelley03a97b62009-06-10 20:55:49 +01002219
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002220 Log TFTP "file not found" errors. These were not logged,
2221 since a normal PXELinux boot generates many of them, but
2222 the lack of the messages seems to be more confusing than
2223 routinely seeing them when there is no real error.
Simon Kelley03a97b62009-06-10 20:55:49 +01002224
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002225 Update Spanish translation. Thanks to Chris Chatham.

Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002228version 2.48
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002229 Archived the extensive, backwards, changelog to
2230 CHANGELOG.archive. The current changelog now runs from
2231 version 2.43 and runs conventionally.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002232
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002233 Fixed bug which broke binding of servers to physical
2234 interfaces when interface names were longer than four
2235 characters. Thanks to MURASE Katsunori for the patch.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002236
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002237 Fixed netlink code to check that messages come from the
2238 correct source, and not another userspace process. Thanks
2239 to Steve Grubb for the patch.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002240
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002241 Maintainability drive: removed bug and missing feature
2242 workarounds for some old platforms. Solaris 9, OpenBSD
2243 older than 4.1, Glibc older than 2.2, Linux 2.2.x and
2244 DBus older than 1.1.x are no longer supported.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002245
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002246 Don't read included configuration files more than once:
2247 allows complex configuration structures without problems.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002248
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002249 Mark log messages from the various subsystems in dnsmasq:
2250 messages from the DHCP subsystem now have the ident string
2251 "dnsmasq-dhcp" and messages from TFTP have ident
2252 "dnsmasq-tftp". Thanks to Olaf Westrik for the patch.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002253
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002254 Fix possible infinite DHCP protocol loop when an IP
2255 address nailed to a hostname (not a MAC address) and a
2256 host sometimes provides the name, sometimes not.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002257
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002258 Allow --addn-hosts to take a directory: all the files
2259 in the directory are read. Thanks to Phil Cornelius for
2260 the suggestion.
Simon Kelley9e4abcb2004-01-22 19:47:41 +00002261
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002262 Support --bridge-interface on all platforms, not just BSD.
Simon Kelley1ab84e22004-01-29 16:48:35 +00002263
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002264 Added support for advanced PXE functions. It's now
2265 possible to define a prompt and menu options which will
2266 be displayed when a client PXE boots. It's also possible to
2267 hand-off booting to other boot servers. Proxy-DHCP, where
2268 dnsmasq just supplies the PXE information and another DHCP
2269 server does address allocation, is also allowed. See the
2270 --pxe-prompt and --pxe-service keywords. Thanks to
2271 Alkis Georgopoulos for the suggestion and Guilherme Moro
2272 and Michael Brown for assistance.
2273
2274 Improvements to DHCP logging. Thanks to Tom Metro for
2275 useful suggestions.
2276
2277 Add ability to build dnsmasq without DHCP support. To do
2278 this, edit src/config.h or build with
2279 "make COPTS=-DNO_DHCP". Thanks to Mahavir Jain for the patch.
2280
2281 Added --test command-line switch - syntax check
2282 configuration files only.
2283
2284 Updated French translation. Thanks to Gildas Le Nadan.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002290 Fixed interface enumeration code to work on NetBSD
2291 5.0. Thanks to Roy Marples for the patch.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002292
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002293 Updated config.h to use the same location for the lease
2294 file on NetBSD as the other *BSD variants. Also allow
2295 LEASEFILE and CONFFILE symbols to be overridden in CFLAGS.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002296
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002297 Handle duplicate address detection on IPv6 more
2298 intelligently. In IPv6, an interface can have an address
2299 which is not usable, because it is still undergoing DAD
2300 (such addresses are marked "tentative"). Attempting to
2301 bind to an address in this state returns an error,
2302 EADDRNOTAVAIL. Previously, on getting such an error,
2303 dnsmasq would silently abandon the address, and never
2304 listen on it. Now, it retries once per second for 20
2305 seconds before generating a fatal error. 20 seconds should
2306 be long enough for any DAD process to complete, but can be
2307 adjusted in src/config.h if necessary. Thanks to Martin
2308 Krafft for the bug report.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002316 Support arbitrarily encapsulated DHCP options, suggestion
2317 and initial patch from Samium Gromoff. This is useful for
Geert Stappersc7e6aea2018-01-13 17:56:37 +00002318 (eg) iPXE, which expect all its private options to be
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002319 encapsulated inside a single option 175. So, eg,
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002320
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002321 dhcp-option = encap:175, 190, "iscsi-client0"
2322 dhcp-option = encap:175, 191, "iscsi-client0-secret"
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002323
Geert Stappersc7e6aea2018-01-13 17:56:37 +00002324 will provide iSCSI parameters to iPXE.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002325
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002326 Enhance --dhcp-match to allow testing of the contents of a
2327 client-sent option, as well as its presence. This
2328 application in mind for this is RFC 4578
2329 client-architecture specifiers, but it's generally useful.
2330 Joey Korkames suggested the enhancement.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002331
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002332 Move from using the IP_XMIT_IF ioctl to IP_BOUND_IF on
2333 OpenSolaris. Thanks to Bastian Machek for the heads-up.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002334
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002335 No longer complain about blank lines in
2336 /etc/ethers. Thanks to Jon Nelson for the patch.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002337
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002338 Fix binding of servers to physical devices, eg
2339 --server=/domain/1.2.3.4@eth0 which was broken from 2.43
2340 onwards unless --query-port=0 set. Thanks to Peter Naulls
2341 for the bug report.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002342
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002343 Reply to DHCPINFORM requests even when the supplied ciaddr
2344 doesn't fall in any dhcp-range. In this case it's not
2345 possible to supply a complete configuration, but
2346 individually-configured options (eg PAC) may be useful.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002347
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002348 Allow the source address of an alias to be a range:
2349 --alias=192.168.0.0,10.0.0.0,255.255.255.0 maps the whole
2350 subnet 192.168.0.0->192.168.0.255 to 10.0.0.0->10.0.0.255,
2351 as before.
2352 --alias=192.168.0.10-192.168.0.40,10.0.0.0,255.255.255.0
2353 maps only the 192.168.0.10->192.168.0.40 region. Thanks to
2354 Ib Uhrskov for the suggestion.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002356 Don't dynamically allocate DHCP addresses which may break
2357 Windows. Addresses which end in .255 or .0 are broken in
2358 Windows even when using supernetting.
2359 --dhcp-range=192.168.0.1,192.168.1.254,255,255,254.0 means
2360 192.168.0.255 is a valid IP address, but not for Windows.
2361 See Microsoft KB281579. We therefore no longer allocate
2362 these addresses to avoid hard-to-diagnose problems.
Simon Kelley73a08a22009-02-05 20:28:08 +00002363
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002364 Update Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.

2366 Delete the PID-file when dnsmasq shuts down. Note that by
2367 this time, dnsmasq is normally not running as root, so
2368 this will fail if the PID-file is stored in a root-owned
2369 directory; such failure is silently ignored. To take
2370 advantage of this feature, the PID-file must be stored in a
2371 directory owned and write-able by the user running
2372 dnsmasq.

2375version 2.46
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002376 Allow --bootp-dynamic to take a netid tag, so that it may
2377 be selectively enabled. Thanks to Olaf Westrik for the
2378 suggestion.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002379
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002380 Remove ISC-leasefile reading code. This has been
2381 deprecated for a long time, and last time I removed it, it
2382 ended up going back by request of one user. This time,
2383 it's gone for good; otherwise it would need to be
2384 re-worked to support multiple domains (see below).
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002385
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002386 Support DHCP clients in multiple DNS domains. This is a
2387 long-standing request. Clients are assigned to a domain
2388 based in their IP address.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002389
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002390 Add --dhcp-fqdn flag, which changes behaviour if DNS names
2391 assigned to DHCP clients. When this is set, there must be
2392 a domain associated with each client, and only
2393 fully-qualified domain names are added to the DNS. The
2394 advantage is that the only the FQDN needs to be unique,
2395 so that two or more DHCP clients can share a hostname, as
2396 long as they are in different domains.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002397
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002398 Set environment variable DNSMASQ_DOMAIN when invoking
2399 lease-change script. This may be useful information to
2400 have now that it's variable.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002401
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002402 Tighten up data-checking code for DNS packet
2403 handling. Thanks to Steve Dodd who found certain illegal
2404 packets which could crash dnsmasq. No memory overwrite was
2405 possible, so this is not a security issue beyond the DoS
2406 potential.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002407
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002408 Update example config dhcp option 47, the previous
2409 suggestion generated an illegal, zero-length,
2410 option. Thanks to Matthias Andree for finding this.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002411
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002412 Rewrite hosts-file reading code to remove the limit of
2413 1024 characters per line. John C Meuser found this.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002414
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002415 Create a net-id tag with the name of the interface on
2416 which the DHCP request was received.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002417
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002418 Fixed minor memory leak in DBus code, thanks to Jeremy
2419 Laine for the patch.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002420
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002421 Emit DBus signals as the DHCP lease database
2422 changes. Thanks to Jeremy Laine for the patch.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002423
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002424 Allow for more that one MAC address in a dhcp-host
2425 line. This configuration tells dnsmasq that it's OK to
2426 abandon a DHCP lease of the fixed address to one MAC
2427 address, if another MAC address in the dhcp-host statement
2428 asks for an address. This is useful to give a fixed
2429 address to a host which has two network interfaces
2430 (say, a laptop with wired and wireless interfaces.)
2431 It's very important to ensure that only one interface
2432 at a time is up, since dnsmasq abandons the first lease
2433 and re-uses the address before the leased time has
2434 elapsed. John Gray suggested this.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002435
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002436 Tweak the response to a DHCP request packet with a wrong
2437 server-id when --dhcp-authoritative is set; dnsmasq now
2438 returns a DHCPNAK, rather than silently ignoring the
2439 packet. Thanks to Chris Marget for spotting this
2440 improvement.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002441
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002442 Add --cname option. This provides a limited alias
2443 function, usable for DHCP names. Thanks to AJ Weber for
2444 suggestions on this.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002445
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002446 Updated contrib/webmin with latest version from Neil
2447 Fisher.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002448
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002449 Updated Polish translation. Thanks to Jan Psota.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002450
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002451 Correct the text names for DHCP options 64 and 65 to be
2452 "nis+-domain" and "nis+-servers".
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002453
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002454 Updated Spanish translation. Thanks to Chris Chatham.

2456 Force re-reading of /etc/resolv.conf when an "interface
2457 up" event occurs.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002461 Fix total DNS failure in release 2.44 unless --min-port
2462 specified. Thanks to Steven Barth and Grant Coady for
2463 bugreport. Also reject out-of-range port spec, which could
2464 break things too: suggestion from Gilles Espinasse.

Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002466
2467version 2.44
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002468 Fix crash when unknown client attempts to renew a DHCP
2469 lease, problem introduced in version 2.43. Thanks to
2470 Carlos Carvalho for help chasing this down.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002471
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002472 Fix potential crash when a host which doesn't have a lease
2473 does DHCPINFORM. Again introduced in 2.43. This bug has
2474 never been reported in the wild.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002475
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002476 Fix crash in netlink code introduced in 2.43. Thanks to
2477 Jean Wolter for finding this.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002478
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002479 Change implementation of min_port to work even if min-port
2480 is large.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002481
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002482 Patch to enable compilation of latest Mac OS X. Thanks to
2483 David Gilman.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002484
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002485 Update Spanish translation. Thanks to Christopher Chatham.

Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002491 Flag errors when configuration options are repeated
2492 illegally.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002493
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002494 Further tweaks for GNU/kFreeBSD
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002495
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002496 Add --no-wrap to msgmerge call - provides nicer .po file
2497 format.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002498
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002499 Honour lease-time spec in dhcp-host lines even for
2500 BOOTP. The user is assumed to known what they are doing in
2501 this case. (Hosts without the time spec still get infinite
2502 leases for BOOTP, over-riding the default in the
2503 dhcp-range.) Thanks to Peter Katzmann for uncovering this.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002504
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002505 Fix problem matching relay-agent ids. Thanks to Michael
2506 Rack for the bug report.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002507
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002508 Add --naptr-record option. Suggestion from Johan
2509 Bergquist.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002510
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002511 Implement RFC 5107 server-id-override DHCP relay agent
2512 option.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002513
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002514 Apply patches from Stefan Kruger for compilation on
2515 Solaris 10 under Sun studio.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002516
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002517 Yet more tweaking of Linux capability code, to suppress
2518 pointless wingeing from kernel 2.6.25 and above.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002519
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002520 Improve error checking during startup. Previously, some
2521 errors which occurred during startup would be worked
2522 around, with dnsmasq still starting up. Some were logged,
2523 some silent. Now, they all cause a fatal error and dnsmasq
2524 terminates with a non-zero exit code. The errors are those
2525 associated with changing uid and gid, setting process
2526 capabilities and writing the pidfile. Thanks to Uwe
2527 Gansert and the Suse security team for pointing out
2528 this improvement, and Bill Reimers for good implementation
2529 suggestions.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002530
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002531 Provide NO_LARGEFILE compile option to switch off largefile
2532 support when compiling against versions of uclibc which
2533 don't support it. Thanks to Stephane Billiart for the patch.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002534
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002535 Implement random source ports for interactions with
2536 upstream nameservers. New spoofing attacks have been found
2537 against nameservers which do not do this, though it is not
2538 clear if dnsmasq is vulnerable, since to doesn't implement
2539 recursion. By default dnsmasq will now use a different
2540 source port (and socket) for each query it sends
2541 upstream. This behaviour can suppressed using the
2542 --query-port option, and the old default behaviour
2543 restored using --query-port=0. Explicit source-port
2544 specifications in --server configs are still honoured.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002545
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002546 Replace the random number generator, for better
2547 security. On most BSD systems, dnsmasq uses the
2548 arc4random() RNG, which is secure, but on other platforms,
2549 it relied on the C-library RNG, which may be
2550 guessable and therefore allow spoofing. This release
2551 replaces the libc RNG with the SURF RNG, from Daniel
2552 J. Berstein's DJBDNS package.
Simon Kelley7622fc02009-06-04 20:32:05 +01002553
Simon Kelley32be32e2017-06-25 21:33:28 +01002554 Don't attempt to change user or group or set capabilities
2555 if dnsmasq is run as a non-root user. Without this, the
2556 change from soft to hard errors when these fail causes
2557 problems for non-root daemons listening on high
2558 ports. Thanks to Patrick McLean for spotting this.
