Package: bind9 Version: 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
Periodically, I see large number of "permission denied" log lines showing up in various logs: Apr 28 15:07:22 fidelity named[879]: client @0xb23daa80 10.0.5.255#61981 (gs-loc.apple.com): error sending response: permission denied Apr 28 15:07:23 fidelity named[879]: client @0xb313a730 10.0.5.255#61981 (gs-loc.apple.com): error sending response: permission denied Apr 28 15:07:25 fidelity named[879]: client @0xb2318e40 10.0.5.255#61981 (gs-loc.apple.com): error sending response: permission denied Apr 28 15:07:29 fidelity named[879]: client @0xb075cb10 10.0.5.255#61981 (gs-loc.apple.com): error sending response: permission denied Apr 28 15:07:35 fidelity named[879]: client @0xb0754d40 10.0.5.255#55290 (p31-fmip.icloud.com): error sending response: permission denied Apr 28 15:07:37 fidelity named[879]: client @0xb1d94c80 10.0.5.255#61981 (gs-loc.apple.com): error sending response: permission denied Apr 28 15:08:07 fidelity named[879]: client @0xb1d431f0 10.0.5.255#51460 (p31-fmip.icloud.com): error sending response: permission denied Apr 28 15:08:08 fidelity named[879]: client @0xb1d431f0 10.0.5.255#51460 (p31-fmip.icloud.com): error sending response: permission denied Apr 28 15:08:10 fidelity named[879]: client @0xb1d431f0 10.0.5.255#51460 (p31-fmip.icloud.com): error sending response: permission denied Apr 28 15:08:14 fidelity named[879]: client @0xb1d431f0 10.0.5.255#51460 (p31-fmip.icloud.com): error sending response: permission denied Apr 28 15:08:38 fidelity named[879]: client @0xb1d6c430 10.0.5.255#51460 (p31-fmip.icloud.com): error sending response: permission denied Apr 28 15:08:47 fidelity named[879]: client @0xb237dab0 10.0.5.255#50319 (www.icloud.com): error sending response: permission denied Apr 28 15:08:47 fidelity named[879]: client @0xb23e0a60 10.0.5.255#56916 (apple.com): error sending response: permission denied It doesn't seem to negatively impact named's ability to function. It started happening around April 9th, 2018 but I had not done any significant upgrades around that time. (I upgraded the bind9 package on March 28). I can resolve the relevant domains listed above with no difficulty. When I review the last month's worth of the data, they appear to be centered around Apple domains. Here's a breakdown from a representative day: 61 (init-p01st.push.apple.com): 54 (www.icloud.com): 54 (apple.com): 45 (gs-loc.apple.com): 41 (push.apple.com): 16 (mesu.apple.com): 14 (p31-fmip.icloud.com): Happy to run more diagnostics on my side. thank you! -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 4.15.0-2-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages bind9 depends on: ii adduser 3.117 ii bind9utils 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1 ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.66 ii libbind9-160 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1 ii libc6 2.27-2 ii libcap2 1:2.25-1.2 ii libcom-err2 1.44.0-1 ii libdns1100 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1 ii libgeoip1 1.6.12-1 ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.16-2 ii libisc169 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1 ii libisccc160 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1 ii libisccfg160 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1 ii libjson-c3 0.12.1-1.3 ii libk5crypto3 1.16-2 ii libkrb5-3 1.16-2 ii liblmdb0 0.9.21-1 ii liblwres160 1:9.11.3+dfsg-1 ii libssl1.1 1.1.0g-2 ii libxml2 2.9.4+dfsg1-6.1 ii lsb-base 9.20170808 ii net-tools 1.60+git20161116.90da8a0-2 ii netbase 5.4 bind9 recommends no packages.
