Simon Kelley 5be5dc1f16 New heuristic for disabling DNSSEC for domain-specific nameservers.
If there's no configured server for the parent  of the domain
covered by a domain-specific server, assume that said domain is
not signed. This extends the existing logic which makes similar
decisions for replies to DS queries from tghe parent server.

Matthias Andree e9f400dd37 base32_decode: avoid shifting into the sign bit
While this won't do harm on systems that do 2's completement,
it triggers the compilers' undefined-behavior sanitizer and
fixes sanitizer error such as the one below (where the 1694... will
vary) and is distracting while debugging.

Simon Kelley cb321709e9 Fix DNSSEC fail with CNAME replies to DS queries.
A CNAME reply to a DNSSEC query was confusing the validation logic.
It now accepts a signed CNAME reply to a DS query as proof that no DS
exists at the domain. This fixes the DS/zone break detection logic.

Simon Kelley 8eb36844a0 Log SERVFAIL from usptream servers.
If we're doing DNSSEC validation and fail because the upstream
reply to our query is SERVFAIL, log this as the reason in
validation result line.

This will make maintainers lives easier when they get reports
of "wrong" validation failure, which is sometimes an upstream problem.

Simon Kelley 1269f074f8 Fix DNSSEC failure with spurious RRSIGs.
The presence of wrong RRSIG RRs in replies causes DNSSEC
validation to fail even when the RRs do not require validation
because the zone is unsigned.

This patch solves the problem and tidies up the logic.

Included is some fixes for hostname_issubdomain() which suffered
some confusions about argument order :) I've clarified that and
checked every to the function to make sure they are using the
correct argument order.

Note that, at the time of this commit, Google DNS appears to have
the same bug, so if you're using 8.8.8.8 or friends as upstream,
resolving the broken zones (eg rivcoed.org) will still fail.

Thanks to Petr Menšík for the bug report.

Simon Kelley f603a4f920 Fix a corner-case in DNSSEC validation with wildcards.
If we have a wildcard record *.example.com and recieve a query for
a.example.com then that's OK, but we have to check that there isn't
an actual a.example.com record. The corner case is when we get a
query for *.example.com in that case the non-existence check
is not required, but was being done.

Thanks to Jan Breig for spotting this.

Simon Kelley 8ddabd11bc DNSSEC validation change for reverse lookups in RFC-1918 ranges and friends.
The large public DNS services seem not to return proof-of-nonexistence
for DS records at the start of RFC-1918 in-addr.arpa domains and the their
IPv6 equivalents. 10.in-addr.arpa, 168.192.in-addr.arpa etc.

Since dnsmasq already has an option which instructs it not bother
upstream servers with pointless queries about these address ranges,
namely --bogus-priv, we extend that to enable behaviour which allows
dnsmasq to assume that insecure NXDOMAIN replies for these domains
are expected and to assume that the domains are legitimately unsigned.

This behaviour only matters when some address range is directed to
another upstream server using --rev-server. In that case it allows
replies from that server to pass DNSSEC validation. Without such a
server configured, queries are never sent upstream so they are never
validated and the new behaviour is moot.

Simon Kelley 57f0489f38 Redesign the interaction between DNSSEC vaildation and per-domain servers.
This should just work in all cases now. If the normal chain-of-trust exists into
the delegated domain then whether the domain is signed or not, DNSSEC
validation will function normally. In the case the delgated domain
is an "overlay" on top of the global DNS and no NS and/or DS records
exist connecting it to the global dns, then if the domain is
unsigned the situation will be handled by synthesising a
proof-of-non-existance-of-DS for the domain and queries will be
answered unvalidated; this action will be logged. A signed domain
without chain-of-trust can be validated if a suitable trust-anchor
is provided using --trust-anchor.

Thanks to Uwe Kleine-König for prompting this change, and contributing
valuable insights into what could be improved.

Simon Kelley 995a16ca0c Implement "DNS-0x20 encoding".
This provides extra protection against reply-spoof attacks.

Since DNS queries are case-insensitive, it's possible to randomly flip
the case of letters in a query and still get the correct answer back.
This adds an extra dimension for a cache-poisoning attacker to guess
when sending replies in-the-blind since it's expected that the
legitimate answer will have the same pattern of upper and lower case
as the query, so any replies which don't can be ignored as
malicious.

The amount of extra entropy clearly depends on the number
of a-z and A-Z characters in the query, and this implementation puts a
hard limit of 32 bits to make rescource allocation easy. This about
doubles entropy over the standard random ID and random port
combination.

Simon Kelley e5e8c14d87 Large refactor of EDNS0 UDP packet size handling.
This was kinda strange before, with a lot of cargo-cult copied code,
and no clear strategy.

Now it works like this:

When talking upstream we always add a pseudoheader, and set the
UDP packet size to --edns-packet-max unless we've had problems
talking to a server, when it's reduced to 1280 if that fixes things.

Answering queries from downstream, we get the answer (either from
upstream or local data) If local data won't fit the advertised size
(or 512 if there's not pseudoheader) return truncated. If upstream
returns truncated, do likewise. If upstream is OK, but the answer is
too big for downstream, truncate the answer.

Simon Kelley 6f23a0a75e Rework validate-by-DS to avoid DoS vuln without arbitrary limits.
By calculating the hash of a DNSKEY once for each digest algo,
we reduce the hashing work from (no. DS) x (no. DNSKEY) to
(no. DNSKEY) x (no. distinct digests)

The number of distinct digests can never be more than 255 and
it's limited by which hashes we implement, so currently only 4.

Simon Kelley d4a6f3a93e Fix logic error in signed RR handling.
In extract_addresses() the "secure" argument is only set if the
whole reply is validated (ie the AD bit can be set). Even without
that, some records may be validated, and should be marked
as such in the cache.

Related, the DNS doctor code has to update the flags for individual
RRs as it works, not the global "secure" flag.

Simon Kelley 31c91b40bd Handle SERVFAIL responses to DS queries better.
On 15/5/2023 8.8.8.8 was returning SERVFAIL for a query on ec.europa.eu

ec.europa.eu is not a domain cut, that happens at jrc.ec.europa.eu. which
does return a signed proof of non-existance for a DS record.
Abandoning the search for a DS or proof of non existence at ec.europa.eu
renders everything within that domain BOGUS, since nothing is signed.

This code changes behaviour on a SERVFAIL to continue looking
deeper for a DS or proof of its nonexistence.
