Dist Fedora Esm H88
The recent security patch for Fedora 25 strengthens Knot Resolver's DNS caching capabilities and mitigates a critical vulnerability.
New upstream release:

Summary

The Knot DNS Resolver is a caching full resolver implementation written in C

and LuaJIT, including both a resolver library and a daemon. Modular

architecture of the library keeps the core tiny and efficient, and provides

a state-machine like API for extensions.

The package is pre-configured as local caching resolver.

To start using it, just start the local DNS socket:

BEWARE:

Because of https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1366968

you need to switch your system to SELinux permissive mode.

New upstream release:

su -c 'dnf upgrade knot-resolver' at the command line.

For more information, refer to the dnf documentation available at

https://dnf.readthedocs.io/en/latest/command_ref.html
