[Bug 1646538] Re: pdns-recursor 4.0.0~alpha2-2 fails on FORMERR response to EDNS query
cool, then what is left is somebody to rewrite the description following
the SRU template. I'll prepare the package and upload to a PPA for
everybody to test the change.
** Changed in: pdns-recursor (Ubuntu)

Title:
pdns-recursor 4.0.0~alpha2-2 fails on FORMERR response to EDNS query
Status in pdns-recursor package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in pdns-recursor source package in Xenial:
Triaged
Bug description:
The pdns-recursor in Xenial returns this:
$ dig A umcg-nl.mail.protection.outlook.com. @127.0.0.1 +edns +dnssec
...
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: SERVFAIL, id: 57895
While it should return this:
...
umcg-nl.mail.protection.outlook.com. 10 IN A 213.199.154.87
umcg-nl.mail.protection.outlook.com. 10 IN A 213.199.154.23
Because the relevant NS returns FORMERR (it doesn't support EDNS):
$ dig A umcg-nl.mail.protection.outlook.com. \
@ns1-proddns.glbdns.o365filtering.com. +edns +dnssec
...
;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: FORMERR, id: 1004
...
;; WARNING: EDNS query returned status FORMERR - retry with '+nodnssec +noedns'
This has been fixed in later versions of pdns, specifically here:
https://github.com/PowerDNS/pdns/commit/9d534f2a12defc44d2a79291bf34b82e5ee28121
After applying that patch onto 4.0.0~alpha2-2, pdns-recursor behaves
as expected and returns the correct A records.
This bug manifested itself in our case through Postfix not being able
to send mail to Office 365 domains. When postfix tried to enable
optional DNSSEC validation -- which it did because of a builtin
default -- the A record lookups would start to fail, and this failure
would be cached for non-EDNS lookups as well.
See original discussion here:
http://postfix.1071664.n5.nabble.com/EDNS-DANE-trouble-with-Microsoft-mail-protection-outlook-com-td87331.html#a87353
"EDNS / DANE trouble with Microsoft mail.protection.outlook.com."
Attached, the patch that appears to fix the problem.
IMHO, Xenial (being an LTS) needs to get this fixed. Either by
updating from 4.0.0 to something more recent, or by applying this
patch.
