+Notes for BIND 9.16.42
+----------------------
+
+Security Fixes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- The overmem cleaning process has been improved, to prevent the cache
+ from significantly exceeding the configured ``max-cache-size`` limit.
+ (CVE-2023-2828)
+
+ ISC would like to thank Shoham Danino from Reichman University, Anat
+ Bremler-Barr from Tel-Aviv University, Yehuda Afek from Tel-Aviv
+ University, and Yuval Shavitt from Tel-Aviv University for bringing
+ this vulnerability to our attention. :gl:`#4055`
+
+- A query that prioritizes stale data over lookup triggers a fetch to
+ refresh the stale data in cache. 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.
