Re: RHEL9+, RSASHA1 and CVE-2025-8677

I created an empty test zone demonstrating the issue at test.mork.no
since I assume Steinar want to fix globalconnect.no ASAP.

my test is using this policy

dnssec-policy "buggy" {
        keys {
                ksk lifetime unlimited algorithm ecdsa256;
                ksk lifetime unlimited algorithm rsasha1;
                zsk lifetime unlimited algorithm ecdsa256;
                zsk lifetime unlimited algorithm rsasha1;
        };
        purge-keys 0;   // never purge deleted keys
};

It looks like this on BIND 9.20.15 on Debian:

And like this on RHEL9 using default crypto policies:

$ dig soa test.mork.no +do +multiline @redacted
