If the fetch is aborted for exceeding + the recursion quota, it was possible for :iscman:`named` to enter an + infinite callback loop and crash due to stack overflow. This has been + fixed. (CVE-2023-2911) :gl:`#4089` + +Bug Fixes +~~~~~~~~~ + +- Previously, it was possible for a delegation from cache to be returned + to the client after the ``stale-answer-client-timeout`` duration. + This has been fixed. :gl:`#3950` + +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. |
