Hello -- Subscribers who are also subscribed to the bind-announce list will now have received our Operational Notification concerning this issue. If you're not a subscriber to that list.. why not? (it's low traffic and only carries important announcements, generally about releases and security issues). But in any case you can view the Operational Notification via the list archives: https://lists.isc.org/pipermail/bind-announce/2020-March/001150.html or via our knowledge base: https://kb.isc.org/docs/operational-notification-an-error-in-handling-tcp-client-quota-limits-can-exhaust-tcp-connections-in-bind-9160 The short version, though, is that we introduced a problem with TCP client quota enforcement during the later releases of the 9.15 development branch which was not noticed until 9.16.0. A fix is available and a patch diff can be found linked from either version of the Operational Notification links above.
