2016-01-11resolved: refuse doing queries for known-obsolete RR typesLennart Poettering
Given how fragile DNS servers are with some DNS types, and given that we really should avoid confusing them with known-weird lookups, refuse doing lookups for known-obsolete RR types.
2016-01-11resolved: rename DnsTransaction's current_features field to ↵Lennart Poettering
current_feature_level This is a follow-up for f4461e5641d53f27d6e76e0607bdaa9c0c58c1f6.
2016-01-11resolved: accept rightfully unsigned NSEC responsesLennart Poettering
2016-01-11resolved: rework how and when we detect whether our chosen DNS server knows ↵Lennart Poettering
DNSSEC Move detection into a set of new functions, that check whether one specific server can do DNSSEC, whether a server and a specific transaction can do DNSSEC, or whether a transaction and all its auxiliary transactions could do so. Also, do these checks both before we acquire additional RRs for the validation (so that we can skip them if the server doesn't do DNSSEC anyway), and after we acquired them all (to see if any of the lookups changed our opinion about the servers). THis also tightens the checks a bit: a server that lacks TCP support is considered incompatible with DNSSEC too.
2016-01-11resolved: rework server feature level logicLennart Poettering
This changes the DnsServer logic to count failed UDP and TCP failures separately. This is useful so that we don't end up downgrading the feature level from one UDP level to a lower UDP level just because a TCP connection we did because of a TC response failed. This also adds accounting of truncated packets. If we detect incoming truncated packets, and count too many failed TCP connections (which is the normal fall back if we get a trucnated UDP packet) we downgrade the feature level, given that the responses at the current levels don't get through, and we somehow need to make sure they become smaller, which they will do if we don't request DNSSEC or EDNS support. This makes resolved work much better with crappy DNS servers that do not implement TCP and only limited UDP packet sizes, but otherwise support DNSSEC RRs. They end up choking on the generally larger DNSSEC RRs and there's no way to retrieve the full data.
2016-01-11resolved: log why we use TCP when UDP isn't supported by a serverLennart Poettering
2016-01-11resolved: log about truncated replies before trying again, not afterLennart Poettering
2016-01-11resolved: don't attempt to send queries for DNSSEC RR types to servers not ↵Lennart Poettering
supporting them If we already degraded the feature level below DO don't bother with sending requests for DS, DNSKEY, RRSIG, NSEC, NSEC3 or NSEC3PARAM RRs. After all, we cannot do DNSSEC validation then anyway, and we better not press a legacy server like this with such modern concepts. This also has the benefit that when we try to validate a response we received using DNSSEC, and we detect a limited server support level while doing so, all further auxiliary DNSSEC queries will fail right-away.
2016-01-11resolved: log about reasons for switching to TCPLennart Poettering
2016-01-11resolved: properly handle UDP ICMP errors as lost packetsLennart Poettering
UDP ICMP errors are reported to us via recvmsg() when we read a reply. Handle this properly, and consider this a lost packet, and retry the connection. This also adds some additional logging for invalid incoming packets.
2016-01-11resolved: when we get a TCP connection failure, try againLennart Poettering
Previously, when we couldn't connect to a DNS server via TCP we'd abort the whole transaction using a "connection-failure" state. This change removes that, and counts failed connections as "lost packet" events, so that we switch back to the UDP protocol again.
2016-01-11resolved: introduce dns_transaction_retry() and use it everywhereLennart Poettering
The code to retry transactions has been used over and over again, simplify it by replacing it by a new function.
2016-01-11resolved: set a description on all our event sourcesLennart Poettering
2016-01-11resolved: properly look for NSEC/NSEC3 RRs when getting a positive wildcard ↵Lennart Poettering
response This implements RFC 5155, Section 8.8 and RFC 4035, Section 5.3.4: When we receive a response with an RRset generated from a wildcard we need to look for one NSEC/NSEC3 RR that proves that there's no explicit RR around before we accept the wildcard RRset as response. This patch does a couple of things: the validation calls will now identify wildcard signatures for us, and let us know the RRSIG used (so that the RRSIG's signer field let's us know what the wildcard was that generate the entry). Moreover, when iterating trough the RRsets of a response we now employ three phases instead of just two. a) in the first phase we only look for DNSKEYs RRs b) in the second phase we only look for NSEC RRs c) in the third phase we look for all kinds of RRs Phase a) is necessary, since DNSKEYs "unlock" more signatures for us, hence we shouldn't assume a key is missing until all DNSKEY RRs have been processed. Phase b) is necessary since NSECs need to be validated before we can validate wildcard RRs due to the logic explained above. Phase c) validates everything else. This phase also handles RRsets that cannot be fully validated and removes them or lets the transaction fail.
2016-01-11resolved: when validating, first strip revoked trust anchor keys from ↵Lennart Poettering
validated keys list When validating a transaction we initially collect DNSKEY, DS, SOA RRs in the "validated_keys" list, that we need for the proofs. This includes DNSKEY and DS data from our trust anchor database. Quite possibly we learn that some of these DNSKEY/DS RRs have been revoked between the time we request and collect those additional RRs and we begin the validation step. In this case we need to make sure that the respective DS/DNSKEY RRs are removed again from our list. This patch adds that, and strips known revoked trust anchor RRs from the validated list before we begin the actual validation proof, and each time we add more DNSKEY material to it while we are doing the proof.
2016-01-11resolved: rework trust anchor revoke checkingLennart Poettering
Instead of first iterating through all DNSKEYs in the DnsAnswer in dns_transaction_check_revoked_trust_anchors(), and then doing that a second time in dns_trust_anchor_check_revoked(), do so only once in the former, and pass the dnskey we found directly to the latter.
2016-01-11resolved: look for revoked trust anchors before validating a messageLennart Poettering
There's not reason to wait for checking for revoked trust anchors until after validation, after all revoked DNSKEYs only need to be self-signed, but not have a full trust chain. This way, we can be sure that all trust anchor lookups we do during validation already honour that some keys might have been revoked.
2016-01-11resolved: remove one level of indentation in dns_transaction_validate_dnssec()Lennart Poettering
Invert an "if" check, so that we can use "continue" rather than another code block indentation.
2016-01-06resolved: introduce support for per-interface negative trust anchorsLennart Poettering
2016-01-06resolved: count unsupported dnssec algorithm as indeterminate RRsetLennart Poettering
After all, when we don't support the algorithm we cannot determine validity.
2016-01-05resolved: try to detect fritz.box-style private DNS zones, and downgrade to ↵Lennart Poettering
non-DNSSEC mode for them This adds logic to detect cases like the Fritz!Box routers which serve a private DNS domain "fritz.box" under the TLD "box" that does not exist in the root servers. If this is detected DNSSEC validation is turned off for this private domain, thus improving compatibility with such private DNS zones. This should be fairly secure as we first rely on the proof that .box does not exist before this logic is applied. Nevertheless the logic is only enabled for DNSSEC=allow-downgrade mode. This logic does not work for routers that set up a full DNS zone directly under a non-existing TLD, as in that case we cannot prove that the domain is truly non-existing according to the root servers.
2016-01-05resolved: fix DNSSEC transaction dependency recursion checkLennart Poettering
We followed the wrong connection. This only worked sometimes at all, because we also return the wrong error code.
2016-01-05resolved: rename "downgrade-ok" mode to "allow-downgrade"Lennart Poettering
After discussing this with Tom, we figured out "allow-downgrade" sounds nicer.
2016-01-05resolved: when caching negative responses, honour NSEC/NSEC3 TTLsLennart Poettering
When storing negative responses, clamp the SOA minimum TTL (as suggested by RFC2308) to the TTL of the NSEC/NSEC3 RRs we used to prove non-existance, if it there is any. This is necessary since otherwise an attacker might put together a faked negative response for one of our question including a high-ttl SOA RR for any parent zone, and we'd use trust the TTL.
2016-01-04resolved: explicitly handle case when the trust anchor is emptyLennart Poettering
Since we honour RFC5011 revoked keys it might happen we end up with an empty trust anchor, or one where there's no entry for the root left. With this patch the logic is changed what to do in this case. Before this patch we'd end up requesting the root DS, which returns with NODATA but a signed NSEC we cannot verify, since the trust anchor is empty after all. Thus we'd return a DNSSEC result of "missing-key", as we lack a verified version of the key. With this patch in place, look-ups for the root DS are explicitly recognized, and not passed on to the DNS servers. Instead, if downgrade-ok mode is on an unsigned NODATA response is synthesized, so that the validator code continues under the assumption the root zone was unsigned. If downgrade-ok mode is off a new transaction failure is generated, that makes this case recognizable.
2016-01-04resolved: explicitly avoid cyclic transaction dependenciesLennart Poettering
We already try hard not to create cyclic transaction dependencies, where a transaction requires another one for DNSSEC validation purposes, which in turn (possibly indirectly) pulls in the original transaction again, thus resulting in a cyclic dependency and ultimately a deadlock since each transaction waits for another one forever. So far we wanted to avoid such cyclic dependencies by only going "up the tree" when requesting auxiliary RRs and only going from one RR type to another, but never back. However this turned out to be insufficient. Consider a domain that publishes one or more DNSKEY but which has no DS for it. A request for the domain's DNSKEY triggers a request for the domain's DS, which will then fail, but return an NSEC, signed by the DNSKEY. To validate that we'd request the DNSKEY again. Thus a DNSKEY request results in a DS request which results in the original DNSKEY request again. If the original lookup had been a DS lookup we'd end up in the same cyclic dependency, hence we cannot statically break one of them, since both requests are of course fully valid. Hence, do full cyclic dependency checking: each time we are about to add a dependency to a transaction, check if the transaction is already a dependency of the dependency (recursively down the tree).
2016-01-04resolved: block transaction GC'ing while ↵Lennart Poettering
dns_transaction_request_dnssec_keys() is running If any of the transactions started by dns_transaction_request_dnssec_keys() finishes promptly without requiring asynchronous operation this is reported back to the issuing transaction from the same stackframe. This might ultimately result in this transaction to be freed while we are still in its _request_dnssec_keys() stack frame. To avoid memory corruption block the transaction GC while in the call, and manually issue a GC after it returned.
2016-01-04resolved: partially implement RFC5011 Trust Anchor supportLennart Poettering
With this patch resolved will properly handle revoked keys, but not augment the locally configured trust anchor database with newly learned keys. Specifically, resolved now refuses validating RRsets with revoked keys, and it will remove revoked keys from the configured trust anchors (only until reboot). This patch does not add logic for adding new keys to the set of trust anchors. This is a deliberate decision as this only can work with persistent disk storage, and would result in a different update logic for stateful and stateless systems. Since we have to support stateless systems anyway, and don't want to encourage two independent upgrade paths we focus on upgrading the trust anchor database via the usual OS upgrade logic. Whenever a trust anchor entry is found revoked and removed from the trust anchor a recognizable log message is written, encouraging the user to update the trust anchor or update his operating system.

Fixes to NSEC3 proof v2
2016-01-03resolved: add negative trust anchro support, and add trust anchor ↵Lennart Poettering
configuration files This adds negative trust anchor support and allows reading trust anchor data from disk, from files /etc/systemd/dnssec-trust-anchors.d/*.positive and /etc/systemd/dnssec-trust-anchros.d/*.negative, as well as the matching counterparts in /usr/lib and /run. The positive trust anchor files are more or less compatible to normal DNS zone files containing DNSKEY and DS RRs. The negative trust anchor files contain only new-line separated hostnames for which to require no signing. By default no trust anchor files are installed, in which case the compiled-in root domain DS RR is used, as before. As soon as at least one positive root anchor for the root is defined via trust anchor files this buil-in DS RR is not added though.
2016-01-03resolved: don't conclude NODATA if CNAME existsTom Gundersen
Instead introduce the new return-code DNSSEC_NSEC_CNAME to indicate this condition. See RFC 6840, Section 4.3.

traffic
2015-12-28resolved: clean up dns_transaction_stop()Lennart Poettering
This renames dns_transaction_stop() to dns_transaction_stop_timeout() and makes it only about stopping the transaction timeout. This is safe, as in most occasions we call dns_transaction_stop() at the same time as dns_transaction_close_connection() anyway, which does the rest of what dns_transaction_stop() used to do. And in the one where we don't call it, it's implicitly called by the UDP emission or TCP connection code. This also closes the connections as we enter the validation phase of a transaction, so that no further messages may be received then.
2015-12-27resolved: rename "features" variables to "feature_level"Lennart Poettering
The name "features" suggests an orthogonal bitmap or suchlike, but the variables really encode only a linear set of feature levels. The type used is already called DnsServerFeatureLevel, hence fix up the variables accordingly, too.
2015-12-27resolved: rework OPT RR generation logicLennart Poettering
This moves management of the OPT RR out of the scope management and into the server and packet management. There are now explicit calls for appending and truncating the OPT RR from a packet (dns_packet_append_opt() and dns_packet_truncate_opt()) as well as a call to do the right thing depending on a DnsServer's feature level (dns_server_adjust_opt()). This also unifies the code to pick a server between the TCP and UDP code paths, and makes sure the feature level used for the transaction is selected at the time the server is picked, and not changed until the next time we pick a server. The server selction code is now unified in dns_transaction_pick_server(). This all fixes problems when changing between UDP and TCP communication for the same server, and makes sure the UDP and TCP codepaths are more alike. It also makes sure we never keep the UDP port open when switchung to TCP, so that we don't have to handle incoming datagrams on the latter we don't expect. As the new code picks the DNS server at the time we make a connection, we don't need to invalidate the DNS server anymore when changing to the next one, thus dns_transaction_next_dns_server() has been removed.
2015-12-27resolved: reuse dns_transaction_stop() when destructing transaction objectsLennart Poettering
2015-12-27resolved: add dns_transaction_close_connection()Lennart Poettering
This new call unifies how we shut down all connection resources, such as UDP sockets, event sources, and TCP stream objects. This patch just adds the basic hook-up, this function will be used more in later commits.

2015-12-27resolved: improve some log messages a bitLennart Poettering
Indicate thar we ignore invalid messages
2015-12-27resolved: never proceed processing truncated packetsLennart Poettering
Make sure we don't end up processing packets that are truncated. Instead, actually let the TCP connection do its thing.
2015-12-27resolved: remember explicitly whether we already tried a stream connectionLennart Poettering
On LLMNR we never want to retry stream connections (since local TCP connections should work, and we don't want to unnecessarily delay operation), explicitly remember whether we already tried one, instead of deriving this from a still stored stream object. This way, we can free the stream early, without forgetting that we tried it.
2015-12-27resolved: make sure we GC stream transactions properlyLennart Poettering
Make sure to GC a transaction after dealing with a reply, even if the transaction is not complete yet.
2015-12-27resolved: ignore additional DNS responses we get while validatingLennart Poettering
No need to choke on them.
2015-12-27resolved: introduce dns_transaction_reset_answer()Lennart Poettering
Let's unify how we reset the answer data we collected, after all pretty much every time we do it incompletely so far, let's fix it.
2015-12-26resolved: name TCP and UDP socket calls uniformlyLennart Poettering
Previously the calls for emitting DNS UDP packets were just called dns_{transacion|scope}_emit(), but the one to establish a DNS TCP connection was called dns_transaction_open_tcp(). Clean this up, and rename them dns_{transaction|scope}_emit_udp() and dns_transaction_open_tcp().
2015-12-26resolved: add an automatic downgrade to non-DNSSEC modeLennart Poettering
This adds a mode that makes resolved automatically downgrade from DNSSEC support to classic non-DNSSEC resolving if the configured DNS server is not capable of DNSSEC. Enabling this mode increases compatibility with crappy network equipment, but of course opens up the system to downgrading attacks. The new mode can be enabled by setting DNSSEC=downgrade-ok in resolved.conf. DNSSEC=yes otoh remains a "strict" mode, where DNS resolving rather fails then allow downgrading. Downgrading is done: - when the server does not support EDNS0+DO - or when the server supports it but does not augment returned RRs with RRSIGs. The latter is detected when requesting DS or SOA RRs for the root domain (which is necessary to do proofs for unsigned data)
2015-12-26resolved: generate an explicit transaction error when we cannot reach server ↵Lennart Poettering
via TCP Previously, if we couldn't reach a server via UDP we'd generate an MAX_ATTEMPTS transaction result, but if we couldn't reach it via TCP we'd generate a RESOURCES transaction result. While it is OK to generate two different errors I think, "RESOURCES" is certainly a misnomer. Introduce a new transaction result "CONNECTION_FAILURE" instead.
2015-12-26resolved: deal with unsigned DS/NSEC/NSEC3 properlyLennart Poettering
Previously, we'd insist on an RRSIG for all DS/NSEC/NSEC3 RRs. With this change we don't do that anymore, but also allow unsigned DS/NSEC/NSEC3 if we can prove that the zone they are located in is unsigned.
2015-12-26resolved: log each dnssec failure, in a recognizable wayLennart Poettering
