When you say “ISC packages”, are you referring to the packages in the ppa:isc/bind repository on launchpad?

In fact, it’s as far from being “fully patched” as possible. Not all bugs are security bugs and not all crashes are security bugs.

Ubuntu is pushing a version that has received most refactoring in the networking code in the recent history.

The “we don’t update upstream version” policy works well only if you carefully pick upstream version. Instead this is snapshot of Debian at random point int time and this is the unfortunate result. I’ve negotiated the exception for Debian to carry the latest upstream release for a good reason.

You are going to do so much better by using ISC packages. And my general recommendation would be to go straight to latest 9.18.

Current ESV : 9.16.35

No, your release is not patched.
Add the ISC PPA repo and install the latest ESV. ISC PPA packaged are packaged by the same maintainers.

Ubuntu 20.04.5 is LTS and BIND 9.16 is the current stable ESV release, so they’re both still fully supported (and fully patched).

Thanks,

To me, the next step is to get your instance of BIND somewhat up to date.

I'm not a "gotta be on the bleeding edge" kinda guy, but running a version released in first quarter of 2020 is old even by my standards. Is there some business reason to keep running a +2 year old version of BIND?
