+Internet-Draft DNS Proxy Implementation Guidelines April 2009
+
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ Research has found ([SAC035], [DOTSE]) that many commonly-used
+ broadband gateways (and similar devices) contain DNS proxies which
+ are incompatible in various ways with current DNS standards.
+
+ These proxies are usually simple DNS forwarders, but typically do not
+ have any caching capabilities. The proxy serves as a convenient
+ default DNS resolver for clients on the LAN, but relies on an
+ upstream resolver (e.g. at an ISP) to perform recursive DNS lookups.
+
+ Note that to ensure full DNS protocol interoperability it is
+ preferred that client stub resolvers should communicate directly with
+ full-feature upstream recursive resolvers wherever possible.
+
+ That notwithstanding, this document describes the incompatibilities
+ that have been discovered and offers guidelines to implementors on
+ how to provide better interoperability in those cases where the
+ client must use the broadband gateway's DNS proxy.
+
+
+2. Terminology
+
+ The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
+ "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
+ document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
+
+
+3. The Transparency Principle
+
+ It is not considered practical for a simple DNS proxy to implement
+ all current and future DNS features.
+
+ There are several reasons why this is the case:
+
+ o broadband gateways usually have limited hardware resources
+ o firmware upgrade cycles are long, and many users do not routinely
+ apply upgrades when they become available
+ o no-one knows what those future DNS features will be, nor how they
+ might be implemented
+ o it would substantially complicate the configuration UI of the
+ device
+
+ Furthermore some modern DNS protocol extensions (see e.g. EDNS0,
+ below) are intended to be used as "hop-by-hop" mechanisms. If the
+ DNS proxy is considered to be such a "hop" in the resolution chain,
+ then for it to function correctly, it would need to be fully
+ compliant with all such mechanisms.
+
+
+
+Bellis Expires October 25, 2009 [Page 3]
+\f
+Internet-Draft DNS Proxy Implementation Guidelines April 2009
+
+
+ [SAC035] shows that the more actively a proxy participates in the DNS
+ protocol then the more likely it is that it will somehow interfere
+ with the flow of messages between the DNS client and the upstream
+ recursive resolvers.
+
+ The role of the proxy should therefore be no more and no less than to
+ receive DNS requests from clients on the LAN side, forward those
+ verbatim to one of the known upstream recursive resolvers on the WAN
+ side, and ensure that the whole response is returned verbatim to the
+ original client.
+
+ It is RECOMMENDED that proxies should be as transparent as possible,
+ such that any "hop-by-hop" mechanisms or newly introduced protocol
+ extensions operate as if the proxy were not there.
+
+ Except when required to enforce an active security or network policy
+ (such as maintaining a pre-authentication "walled garden"), end-users
+ SHOULD be able to send their DNS queries to specified upstream
+ resolvers, thereby bypassing the proxy altogether. In this case, the
+ gateway SHOULD NOT modify the DNS request or response packets in any
+ way.
+
+
+4. Protocol Conformance
+
+4.1. Unexpected Flags and Data
+
+ The Transparency Principle above, when combined with Postel's
+ Robustness Principle [RFC0793], suggests that DNS proxies should not
+ arbitrarily reject or otherwise drop requests or responses based on
+ perceived non-compliance with standards.
+
+ For example, some proxies have been observed to drop any packet
+ containing either the "Authentic Data" (AD) or "Checking Disabled"
+ (CD) bits from DNSSEC [RFC4035]. This may be because [RFC1035]
+ originally specified that these unused "Z" flag bits "MUST" be zero.
+ However these flag bits were always intended to be reserved for
+ future use, so refusing to proxy any packet containing these flags
+ (now that uses for those flags have indeed been defined) is not
+ appropriate.
+
+ Therefore it is RECOMMENDED that proxies SHOULD ignore any unknown
+ DNS flags and proxy those packets as usual.
+
+4.2. Label Compression
+
+ Compression of labels as per Section 4.1.4 of [RFC1035] is optional.
+
+
+
+
+Bellis Expires October 25, 2009 [Page 4]
+\f
+Internet-Draft DNS Proxy Implementation Guidelines April 2009
+
+
+ Proxies MUST forward packets regardless of the presence or absence of
+ compressed labels therein.
+
+4.3. Unknown Resource Record Types
+
+ [RFC3597] requires that resolvers MUST handle Resource Records (RRs)
+ of unknown type transparently.
+
+ All requests and responses MUST be proxied regardless of the values
+ of the QTYPE and QCLASS fields.
+
+ Similarly all responses MUST be proxied regardless of the values of
+ the TYPE and CLASS fields of any Resource Record therein.
+
+4.4. Packet Size Limits
+
+ [RFC1035] specifies that the maximum size of the DNS payload in a UDP
+ packet is 512 octets. Where the required portions of a response
+ would not fit inside that limit the DNS server MUST set the
+ "TrunCation" (TC) bit in the DNS response header to indicate that
+ truncation has occurred. There are however two standard mechanisms
+ (described in Section 4.4.1 and Section 4.4.2) for transporting
+ responses larger than 512 octets.
+
+ Many proxies have been observed to truncate all responses at 512
+ octets, and others at a packet size related to the WAN MTU, in either
+ case doing so without correctly setting the TC bit.
+
+ Other proxies have been observed to remove the TC bit in server
+ responses which correctly had the TC bit set by the server.
+
+ If a DNS response is truncated but the TC bit is not set then client
+ failures may result. In particular a naive DNS client library might
+ suffer crashes due to reading beyond the end of the data actually
+ received.
+
+ Since UDP packets larger than 512 octets are now expected in normal
+ operation, proxies SHOULD NOT truncate UDP packets that exceed that
+ size. See Section 4.4.3 for recommendations for packet sizes
+ exceeding the WAN MTU.
+
+ If a proxy must unilaterally truncate a response then the proxy MUST
+ set the TC bit. Similarly, proxies MUST NOT remove the TC bit from
+ responses.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+Bellis Expires October 25, 2009 [Page 5]
+\f
+Internet-Draft DNS Proxy Implementation Guidelines April 2009
+
+
+4.4.1. TCP Transport
+
+ Should a UDP query fail because of truncation, the standard fail-over
+ mechanism is to retry the query using TCP, as described in section
+ 6.1.3.2 of [RFC1123].
+
+ DNS proxies SHOULD therefore be prepared to receive and forward
+ queries over TCP.
+
+ Note that it is unlikely that a client would send a request over TCP
+ unless it had already received a truncated UDP response. Some
+ "smart" proxies have been observed to first forward any request
+ received over TCP to an upstream resolver over UDP, only for the
+ response to be truncated, causing the proxy to retry over TCP. Such
+ behaviour increases network traffic and causes delay in DNS
+ resolution since the initial UDP request is doomed to fail.
+
+ Therefore whenever a proxy receives a request over TCP, the proxy
+ SHOULD forward the query over TCP and SHOULD NOT attempt the same
+ query over UDP first.
+
+4.4.2. Extension Mechanisms for DNS (EDNS0)
+
+ The Extension Mechanism for DNS [RFC2671] was introduced to allow the
+ transport of larger DNS packets over UDP and also to allow for
+ additional request and response flags.
+
+ A client may send an OPT Resource Record (OPT RR) in the Additional
+ Section of a request to indicate that it supports a specific receive
+ buffer size. The OPT RR also includes the "DNSSEC OK" (DO) flag used
+ by DNSSEC to indicate that DNSSEC-related RRs should be returned to
+ the client.
+
+ However some proxies have been observed to either reject (with a
+ FORMERR response code) or black-hole any packet containing an OPT RR.
+ As per Section 4.1 proxies SHOULD NOT refuse to proxy such packets.
+
+4.4.3. IP Fragmentation
+
+ Support for UDP packet sizes exceeding the WAN MTU depends on the
+ gateway's algorithm for handling fragmented IP packets. Several
+ methods are possible:
+
+ 1. fragments are dropped
+ 2. fragments are forwarded individually as they're received
+ 3. complete packets are reassembled on the gateway, and then re-
+ fragmented (if necessary) as they're forwarded to the client
+
+
+
+
+Bellis Expires October 25, 2009 [Page 6]
+\f
+Internet-Draft DNS Proxy Implementation Guidelines April 2009
+
+
+ Method 1 above will cause compatibility problems with EDNS0 unless
+ the DNS client is configured to advertise an EDNS0 buffer size
+ limited to the WAN MTU less the size of the IP header. Note that RFC
+ 2671 does recommend that the path MTU should be taken into account
+ when using EDNS0.
+
+ Also, whilst the EDNS0 specification allows for a buffer size of up
+ to 65535 octets, most common DNS server implementations do not
+ support a buffer size above 4096 octets.
+
+ Therefore (irrespective of which of the methods above is in use)
+ proxies SHOULD be capable of forwarding UDP packets up to a payload
+ size of at least 4096 octets.
+
+ NB: in theory IP fragmentation may also occur if the LAN MTU is
+ smaller than the WAN MTU, although the author has not observed such a
+ configuration in use on any residential broadband service.
+
+4.5. Secret Key Transaction Authentication for DNS (TSIG)
+
+ [RFC2845] defines TSIG, which is a mechanism for authenticating DNS
+ requests and responses at the packet level.
+
+ Any modifications made to the DNS portions of a TSIG-signed query or
+ response packet (with the exception of the Query ID) will cause a
+ TSIG authentication failure.
+
+ DNS proxies MUST implement Section 4.7 of [RFC2845] and either
+ forward packets unchanged (as recommended above) or fully implement
+ TSIG.
+
+ As per Section 4.3, DNS proxies MUST be capable of proxying packets
+ containing TKEY [RFC2930] Resource Records.
+
+ NB: any DNS proxy (such as those commonly found in WiFi hotspot
+ "walled gardens") which transparently intercepts all DNS queries, and
+ which returns unsigned responses to signed queries, will also cause
+ TSIG authentication failures.
+
+
+5. DHCP's Interaction with DNS
+
+ Whilst this document is primarily about DNS proxies, most consumers
+ rely on DHCP [RFC2131] to obtain network configuration settings.
+ Such settings include the client machine's IP address, subnet mask
+ and default gateway, but also include DNS related settings.
+
+ It is therefore appropriate to examine how DHCP affects client DNS
+
+
+
+Bellis Expires October 25, 2009 [Page 7]
+\f
+Internet-Draft DNS Proxy Implementation Guidelines April 2009
+
+
+ configuration.
+
+5.1. Domain Name Server (DHCP Option 6)
+
+ Most gateways default to supplying their own IP address in the DHCP
+ "Domain Name Server" option [RFC2132]. The net result is that
+ without explicit re-configuration many DNS clients will by default
+ send queries to the gateway's DNS proxy. This is understandable
+ behaviour given that the correct upstream settings are not usually
+ known at boot time.
+
+ Most gateways learn their own DNS settings via values supplied by an
+ ISP via DHCP or PPP over the WAN interface. However whilst many
+ gateways do allow the device administrator to override those values,
+ some gateways only use those supplied values to affect the proxy's
+ own forwarding function, and do not offer these values via DHCP.
+
+ When using such a device the only way to avoid using the DNS proxy is
+ to hard-code the required values in the client operating system.
+ This may be acceptable for a desktop system but it is inappropriate
+ for mobile devices which are regularly used on many different
+ networks.
+
+ As per Section 3, end-users SHOULD be able to send their DNS queries
+ directly to specified upstream resolvers, ideally without hard-coding
+ those settings in their stub resolver.
+
+ It is therefore RECOMMENDED that gateways SHOULD support device
+ administrator configuration of values for the "Domain Name Server"
+ DHCP option.
+
+5.2. Domain Name (DHCP Option 15)
+
+ A significant amount of traffic to the DNS Root Name Servers is for
+ invalid top-level domain names, and some of that traffic can be
+ attributed to particular equipment vendors whose firmware defaults
+ this DHCP option to specific values.
+
+ Since no standard exists for a "local" scoped domain name suffix it
+ is RECOMMENDED that the default value for this option SHOULD be
+ empty, and that this option MUST NOT be sent to clients when no value
+ is configured.
+
+5.3. DHCP Leases
+
+ It is noted that some DHCP servers in broadband gateways by default
+ offer their own IP address for the "Domain Name Server" option (as
+ described above) but then automatically start offering the upstream
+
+
+
+Bellis Expires October 25, 2009 [Page 8]
+\f
+Internet-Draft DNS Proxy Implementation Guidelines April 2009
+
+
+ servers' addresses once they've been learnt over the WAN interface.
+
+ In general this behaviour is highly desirable, but the effect for the
+ end-user is that the settings used depend on whether the DHCP lease
+ was obtained before or after the WAN link was established.
+
+ If the DHCP lease is obtained whilst the WAN link is down then the
+ DHCP client (and hence the DNS client) will not receive the correct
+ values until the DHCP lease is renewed.
+
+ Whilst no specific recommendations are given here, vendors may wish
+ to give consideration to the length of DHCP leases, and whether some
+ mechanism for forcing a DHCP lease renewal might be appropriate.
+
+ Another possibility is that the learnt upstream values might be
+ persisted in non-volatile memory such that on reboot the same values
+ can be automatically offered via DHCP. However this does run the
+ risk that incorrect values are initially offered if the device is
+ moved or connected to another ISP.
+
+ Alternatively, the DHCP server might only issue very short (i.e. 60
+ second) leases while the WAN link is down, only reverting to more
+ typical lease lengths once the WAN link is up and the upstream DNS
+ servers are known. Indeed with such a configuration it may be
+ possible to avoid the need to implement a DNS proxy function in the
+ broadband gateway at all.
+
+
+6. Security Considerations
+
+ This document introduces no new protocols. However there are some
+ security related recommendations for vendors that are listed here.
+
+6.1. Forgery Resilience
+
+ Whilst DNS proxies are not usually full-feature resolvers they
+ nevertheless share some characteristics with them.
+
+ Notwithstanding the recommendations above about transparency many DNS
+ proxies are observed to pick a new Query ID for outbound requests to
+ ensure that responses are directed to the correct client.
+
+ NB: Changing the Query ID is acceptable and compatible with proxying
+ TSIG-signed packets since the TSIG signature calculation is based on
+ the original message ID which is carried in the TSIG RR.
+
+ It has been standard guidance for many years that each DNS query
+ should use a randomly generated Query ID. However many proxies have
+
+
+
+Bellis Expires October 25, 2009 [Page 9]
+\f
+Internet-Draft DNS Proxy Implementation Guidelines April 2009
+
+
+ been observed picking sequential Query IDs for successive requests.
+
+ It is strongly RECOMMENDED that DNS proxies follow the relevant
+ recommendations in [RFC5452], particularly those in Section 9.2
+ relating to randomisation of Query IDs and source ports. This also
+ applies to source port selection within any NAT function.
+
+ If a DNS proxy is running on a broadband gateway with NAT that is
+ compliant with [RFC4787] then it SHOULD also follow the
+ recommendations in Section 10 of [RFC5452] concerning how long DNS
+ state is kept.
+
+6.2. Interface Binding
+
+ Some gateways have been observed to have their DNS proxy listening on
+ both internal (LAN) and external (WAN) interfaces. In this
+ configuration it is possible for the proxy to be used to mount
+ reflector attacks as described in [RFC5358].
+
+ The DNS proxy in a gateway SHOULD NOT by default be accessible from
+ the WAN interfaces of the device.
+
+6.3. Packet Filtering
+
+ The Transparency and Robustness Principles are not entirely
+ compatible with the deep packet inspection features of security
+ appliances such as firewalls which are intended to protect systems on
+ the inside of a network from rogue traffic.
+
+ However a clear distinction may be made between traffic that is
+ intrinsically malformed and that which merely contains unexpected
+ data.
+
+ Examples of malformed packets which MAY be dropped include:
+
+ o invalid compression pointers (i.e. those that point outside of the
+ current packet, or which might cause a parsing loop).
+ o incorrect counts for the Question, Answer, Authority and
+ Additional Sections (although care should be taken where
+ truncation is a possibility).
+
+ Since dropped packets will cause the client to repeatedly retransmit
+ the original request, it is RECOMMENDED that proxies SHOULD instead
+ return a suitable DNS error response to the client (i.e. SERVFAIL)
+ instead of dropping the packet completely.
