Net::DNS 1.53 Released

DNS Libraries & Tools
1

Dear all,

I am pleased to announce the 1.55 release of Net::DNS.

This release has two bugfixes

  • A fix for 1 byte TCP packets containing “0” being interpreted as EOF, corrupting AXFRs (See RT#176900)

  • Removing usage of backticks in UNIX.pm which depend on shell (See RT#177003)

Besides these fixes, Net::DNS now also provides stack traces for taint violations (See RT#178183)
