+Notes for BIND 9.18.1
+---------------------
+
+Security Fixes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- The rules for acceptance of records into the cache have been tightened
+ to prevent the possibility of poisoning if forwarders send records
+ outside the configured bailiwick. (CVE-2021-25220)
+
+ ISC would like to thank Xiang Li, Baojun Liu, and Chaoyi Lu from
+ Network and Information Security Lab, Tsinghua University, and
+ Changgen Zou from Qi An Xin Group Corp. for bringing this
+ vulnerability to our attention. :gl:`#2950`
+
+- TCP connections with :any:`keep-response-order` enabled could leave the
+ TCP sockets in the ``CLOSE_WAIT`` state when the client did not
+ properly shut down the connection. (CVE-2022-0396) :gl:`#3112`
+
+- Lookups involving a DNAME could trigger an assertion failure when
+ :any:`synth-from-dnssec` was enabled (which is the default).
+ (CVE-2022-0635)
+
+ ISC would like to thank Vincent Levigneron from AFNIC for bringing
+ this vulnerability to our attention. :gl:`#3158`
+
+- When chasing DS records, a timed-out or artificially delayed fetch
+ could cause ``named`` to crash while resuming a DS lookup.
+ (CVE-2022-0667) :gl:`#3129`
+
+Feature Changes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- The DLZ API has been updated: EDNS Client-Subnet (ECS) options sent
+ by a client are now included in the client information sent to DLZ
+ modules when processing queries. :gl:`#3082`
+
+- DEBUG(1)-level messages were added when starting and ending the BIND 9
+ task-exclusive mode that stops normal DNS operation (e.g. for
+ reconfiguration, interface scans, and other events that require
+ exclusive access to a shared resource). :gl:`#3137`
+
+- The limit on the number of simultaneously processed pipelined DNS
+ queries received over TCP has been removed. Previously, it was capped
+ at 23 queries processed at the same time. :gl:`#3141`
+
+Bug Fixes
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+- A failed view configuration during a ``named`` reconfiguration
+ procedure could cause inconsistencies in BIND internal structures,
+ causing a crash or other unexpected errors. This has been fixed.
+ :gl:`#3060`
+
+- Previously, ``named`` logged a "quota reached" message when it hit its
+ hard quota on the number of connections. That message was accidentally
+ removed but has now been restored. :gl:`#3125`
+
+- The :any:`max-transfer-time-out` and :any:`max-transfer-idle-out` options
+ were not implemented when the BIND 9 networking stack was refactored
+ in 9.16. The missing functionality has been re-implemented and
+ outgoing zone transfers now time out properly when not progressing.
+ :gl:`#1897`
+
+- TCP connections could hang indefinitely if the other party did not
+ read sent data, causing the TCP write buffers to fill. This has been
+ fixed by adding a "write" timer. Connections that are hung while
+ writing now time out after the :any:`tcp-idle-timeout` period has
+ elapsed. :gl:`#3132`
+
+- Client TCP connections are now closed immediately when data received
+ cannot be parsed as a valid DNS request. :gl:`#3149`
+
+- The statistics counter representing the current number of clients
+ awaiting recursive resolution results (``RecursClients``) could be
+ miscalculated in certain resolution scenarios, potentially causing the
+ value of the counter to drop below zero. This has been fixed.
+ :gl:`#3147`
+
+- An error in the processing of the :any:`blackhole` ACL could cause some
+ DNS requests sent by :iscman:`named` to fail - for example, zone
+ transfer requests and SOA refresh queries - if the destination address
+ or prefix was specifically excluded from the ACL using ``!``, or if
+ the ACL was set to ``none``. This has now been fixed. :any:`blackhole`
+ worked correctly when it was left unset, or if only positive-match
+ elements were included. :gl:`#3157`
+
+- Build errors were introduced in some DLZ modules due to an incomplete
+ change in the previous release. This has been fixed. :gl:`#3111`
+
+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.
