The previous patch fixed "forwardPlainNames" so that it really is
doing only what is intended, but left the default to be
"forwardPlainNames='no'". Discussion around the initial version of
that patch led to the decision that the default should instead be
"forwardPlainNames='yes'" (i.e. the original behavior before commit
f3886825). This patch makes that change to the default.
In commit f386825 we began adding the options
--domain-needed
--local=/$mydomain/
to all dnsmasq commandlines with the stated reason of preventing
forwarding of DNS queries for names that weren't fully qualified
domain names ("FQDN", i.e. a name that included some "."s and a domain
name). This was later changed to
domain-needed
local=/$mydomain/
when we moved the options from the dnsmasq commandline to a conf file.
The original patch on the list, and discussion about it, is here:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2012-August/msg01594.html
When a domain name isn't specified (mydomain == ""), the addition of
"domain-needed local=//" will prevent forwarding of domain-less
requests to the virtualization host's DNS resolver, but if a domain
*is* specified, the addition of "local=/domain/" will prevent
forwarding of any requests for *qualified* names within that domain
that aren't resolvable by libvirt's dnsmasq itself.
An example of the problems this causes - let's say a network is
defined with:
<domain name='example.com'/>
<dhcp>
..
<host mac='52:54:00:11:22:33' ip='1.2.3.4' name='myguest'/>
</dhcp>
This results in "local=/example.com/" being added to the dnsmasq options.
If a guest requests "myguest" or "myguest.example.com", that will be
resolved by dnsmasq. If the guest asks for "www.example.com", dnsmasq
will not know the answer, but instead of forwarding it to the host, it
will return NOT FOUND to the guest. In most cases that isn't the
behavior an admin is looking for.
A later patch (commit 4f595ba) attempted to remedy this by adding a
"forwardPlainNames" attribute to the <dns> element. The idea was that
if forwardPlainNames='yes' (default is 'no'), we would allow
unresolved names to be forwarded. However, that patch was botched, in
that it only removed the "domain-needed" option when
forwardPlainNames='yes', and left the "local=/mydomain/".
Really we should have been just including the option "--domain-needed
--local=//" (note the lack of domain name) regardless of the
configured domain of the network, so that requests for names without a
domain would be treated as "local to dnsmasq" and not forwarded, but
all others (including those in the network's configured domain) would
be forwarded. We also shouldn't include *either* of those options if
forwardPlainNames='yes'. This patch makes those corrections.
This patch doesn't remedy the fact that default behavior was changed
by the addition of this feature. That will be handled in a subsequent
patch.
This patch resolves the problem reported in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886663
The source of the problem was the fix for CVE 2011-3411:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=833033
which was originally committed upstream in commit
753ff83a50. That commit improperly
removed the "--except-interface lo" from dnsmasq commandlines when
--bind-dynamic was used (based on comments in the latter bug).
It turns out that the problem reported in the CVE could be eliminated
without removing "--except-interface lo", and removing it actually
caused each instance of dnsmasq to listen on localhost on port 53,
which created a new problem:
If another instance of dnsmasq using "bind-interfaces" (instead of
"bind-dynamic") had already been started (or if another instance
started later used "bind-dynamic"), this wouldn't have any immediately
visible ill effects, but if you tried to start another dnsmasq
instance using "bind-interfaces" *after* starting any libvirt
networks, the new dnsmasq would fail to start, because there was
already another process listening on port 53.
(Subsequent to the CVE fix, another patch changed the network driver
to put dnsmasq options in a conf file rather than directly on the
dnsmasq commandline, but preserved the same options.)
This patch changes the network driver to *always* add
"except-interface=lo" to dnsmasq conf files, regardless of whether we use
bind-dynamic or bind-interfaces. This way no libvirt dnsmasq instances
are listening on localhost (and the CVE is still fixed).
The actual code change is miniscule, but must be propogated through all
of the test files as well.
I noticed that /var/lib/libvirt/dnsmasq/*.conf used the wrong word;
it was intended to match the wording in src/util/xml.c.
* src/network/bridge_driver.c (networkDnsmasqConfContents): Fix typo.
* tests/networkxml2confdata/*.conf: Update accordingly.
This patch changes how parameters are passed to dnsmasq. Instead of
being on the command line, the parameters are put into a file (one
parameter per line) and a commandline --conf-file= specifies the
location of the file. The file is located in the same directory as
the leases file.
Putting the dnsmasq parameters into a configuration file
allows them to be examined and more easily understood than
examining the command lines displayed by "ps ax". This is
especially true when a number of networks have been started.
When the use of dnsmasq was originally done, the required command line
was simple, but it has gotten more complicated over time and will
likely become even more complicated in the future.
Note: The test conf files have all been renamed .conf instead of
.argv, and tests/networkxml2xmlargvdata was moved to
tests/networkxml2xmlconfdata.
