+Notes for BIND 9.20.14
+----------------------
+
+Security Fixes
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- [CVE-2025-8677] DNSSEC validation fails if matching but invalid DNSKEY
+  is found.
+
+  Previously, if a matching but cryptographically invalid key was
+  encountered during DNSSEC validation, the key was skipped and not
+  counted towards validation failures. :iscman:`named` now treats such
+  DNSSEC keys as hard failures and the DNSSEC validation fails
+  immediately, instead of continuing with the next DNSKEYs in the RRset.
+
+  ISC would like to thank Zuyao Xu and Xiang Li from the All-in-One
+  Security and Privacy Laboratory at Nankai University for bringing this
+  vulnerability to our attention. :gl:`#5343`
+
+- [CVE-2025-40778] Address various spoofing attacks.
+
+  Previously, several issues could be exploited to poison a DNS cache
+  with spoofed records for zones which were not DNSSEC-signed or if the
+  resolver was configured to not do DNSSEC validation. These issues were
+  assigned CVE-2025-40778 and have now been fixed.
+
+  As an additional layer of protection, :iscman:`named` no longer
+  accepts DNAME records or extraneous NS records in the AUTHORITY
+  section unless these are received via spoofing-resistant transport
+  (TCP, UDP with DNS cookies, TSIG, or SIG(0)).
+
+  ISC would like to thank Yuxiao Wu, Yunyi Zhang, Baojun Liu, and Haixin
+  Duan from Tsinghua University for bringing this vulnerability to our
+  attention. :gl:`#5414`
+
+- [CVE-2025-40780] Cache-poisoning due to weak pseudo-random number
+  generator.
+
+  It was discovered during research for an upcoming academic paper that
+  a xoshiro128\*\* internal state can be recovered by an external 3rd
+  party, allowing the prediction of UDP ports and DNS IDs in outgoing
+  queries. This could lead to an attacker spoofing the DNS answers with
+  great efficiency and poisoning the DNS cache.
+
+  The internal random generator has been changed to a cryptographically
+  secure pseudo-random generator.
+
+  ISC would like to thank Prof. Amit Klein and Omer Ben Simhon from
+  Hebrew University of Jerusalem for bringing this vulnerability to our
+  attention. :gl:`#5484`
+
+New Features
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Add dnssec-policy keys configuration check to named-checkconf.
+
+  A new option `-k` is added to `named-checkconf` that allows checking
+  the `dnssec-policy` `keys` configuration against the configured key
+  stores. If the found key files are not in sync with the given
+  `dnssec-policy`, the check will fail.
+
+  This is useful to run before migrating to `dnssec-policy`. :gl:`#5486`
+
+Bug Fixes
+~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Use signer name when disabling DNSSEC algorithms.
+
+  ``disable-algorithms`` could cause DNSSEC validation failures when the
+  parent zone was signed with the algorithms that were being disabled
+  for the child zone. This has been fixed; `disable-algorithms` now
+  works on a whole-of-zone basis.
+
+  If the zone's name is at or below the ``disable-algorithms`` name the
+  algorithm is disabled for that zone, using deepest match when there
+  are multiple ``disable-algorithms`` clauses.  :gl:`#5165`
+
+- Rndc sign during ZSK rollover will now replace signatures.
+
+  When performing a ZSK rollover, if the new DNSKEY is omnipresent, the
+  :option:`rndc sign` command now signs the zone completely with the
+  successor key, replacing all zone signatures from the predecessor key
+  with new ones. :gl:`#5483`
+
+- Missing DNSSEC information when CD bit is set in query.
+
+  The RRSIGs for glue records were not being cached correctly for CD=1
+  queries.  This has been fixed. :gl:`#5502`
+
+- Preserve cache when reload fails and reload the server again.
+
+  Fixes an issue where failing to reconfigure/reload the server would
+  prevent to preserved the views caches on the subsequent server
+  reconfiguration/reload. :gl:`#5523`
