+Notes for BIND 9.18.24
+----------------------
+
+Security Fixes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Validating DNS messages containing a lot of DNSSEC signatures could
+  cause excessive CPU load, leading to a denial-of-service condition.
+  This has been fixed. :cve:`2023-50387`
+
+  ISC would like to thank Elias Heftrig, Haya Schulmann, Niklas Vogel,
+  and Michael Waidner from the German National Research Center for
+  Applied Cybersecurity ATHENE for bringing this vulnerability to our
+  attention. :gl:`#4424`
+
+- Preparing an NSEC3 closest encloser proof could cause excessive CPU
+  load, leading to a denial-of-service condition. This has been fixed.
+  :cve:`2023-50868` :gl:`#4459`
+
+- Parsing DNS messages with many different names could cause excessive
+  CPU load. This has been fixed. :cve:`2023-4408`
+
+  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:`#4234`
+
+- Specific queries could cause :iscman:`named` to crash with an
+  assertion failure when :any:`nxdomain-redirect` was enabled. This has
+  been fixed. :cve:`2023-5517` :gl:`#4281`
+
+- A bad interaction between DNS64 and serve-stale could cause
+  :iscman:`named` to crash with an assertion failure, when both of these
+  features were enabled. This has been fixed. :cve:`2023-5679`
+  :gl:`#4334`
+
+- Under certain circumstances, the DNS-over-TLS client code incorrectly
+  attempted to process more than one DNS message at a time, which could
+  cause :iscman:`named` to crash with an assertion failure. This has
+  been fixed. :gl:`#4487`
+
+Bug Fixes
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+- The counters exported via the statistics channel were changed back to
+  64-bit signed values; they were being inadvertently truncated to
+  unsigned 32-bit values since BIND 9.15.0. :gl:`#4467`
+
+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.
