+Notes for BIND 9.16.33
+----------------------
+
+Security Fixes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Previously, there was no limit to the number of database lookups
+ performed while processing large delegations, which could be abused to
+ severely impact the performance of :iscman:`named` running as a
+ recursive resolver. This has been fixed. (CVE-2022-2795)
+
+ ISC would like to thank Yehuda Afek from Tel-Aviv University and Anat
+ Bremler-Barr & Shani Stajnrod from Reichman University for bringing
+ this vulnerability to our attention. :gl:`#3394`
+
+- :iscman:`named` running as a resolver with the
+ ``stale-answer-client-timeout`` option set to ``0`` could crash with
+ an assertion failure, when there was a stale CNAME in the cache for
+ the incoming query. This has been fixed. (CVE-2022-3080) :gl:`#3517`
+
+- A memory leak was fixed that could be externally triggered in the
+ DNSSEC verification code for the ECDSA algorithm. (CVE-2022-38177)
+ :gl:`#3487`
+
+- Memory leaks were fixed that could be externally triggered in the
+ DNSSEC verification code for the EdDSA algorithm. (CVE-2022-38178)
+ :gl:`#3487`
+
+Feature Changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Response Rate Limiting (RRL) code now treats all QNAMEs that are
+ subject to wildcard processing within a given zone as the same name,
+ to prevent circumventing the limits enforced by RRL. :gl:`#3459`
+
+- Zones using ``dnssec-policy`` now require dynamic DNS or
+ ``inline-signing`` to be configured explicitly. :gl:`#3381`
+
+- A backward-compatible approach was implemented for encoding
+ internationalized domain names (IDN) in :iscman:`dig` and converting
+ the domain to IDNA2008 form; if that fails, BIND tries an IDNA2003
+ conversion. :gl:`#3485`
+
+Bug Fixes
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+- A serve-stale bug was fixed, where BIND would try to return stale data
+ from cache for lookups that received duplicate queries or queries that
+ would be dropped. This bug resulted in premature SERVFAIL responses,
+ and has now been resolved. :gl:`#2982`
+
+Known Issues
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- There are no new known issues with this release. See :ref:`above
+ <relnotes_known_issues>` for a list of all known issues affecting this
+ BIND 9 branch.
