<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-1" href="#section-1">1</a>. Introduction</span>
The Domain Name System (DNS) specifies a query type (QTYPE) "ANY".
The operator of an authoritative DNS server might choose not to
respond to such queries for reasons of local policy, motivated by
security, performance, or other reasons.
The DNS specification [<a href="./rfc1034" title=""Domain names - concepts and facilities"">RFC1034</a>] [<a href="./rfc1035" title=""Domain names - implementation and specification"">RFC1035</a>] does not include specific
guidance for the behavior of DNS servers or clients in this
situation. This document aims to provide such guidance.
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-1.1" href="#section-1.1">1.1</a>. Terminology</span>
This document uses terminology specific to the Domain Name System
(DNS), descriptions of which can be found in [<a href="./rfc8499" title=""DNS Terminology"">RFC8499</a>].
[<a id="ref-RFC1035">RFC1035</a>] defined type 255 to be "*". However, DNS implementations
commonly use the keyword "ANY" to refer to that type code; this
document follows that common usage.
In this document, "ANY query" refers to a DNS meta-query with
QTYPE=ANY. An "ANY response" is a response to such a query.
In this document, "conventional ANY response" means an ANY response
that is constructed in accordance with the algorithm documented in
<a href="./rfc1034#section-4.3.2">Section 4.3.2 of [RFC1034]</a> and specifically without implementing any
of the mechanisms described in this document.
In an exchange of DNS messages between two hosts, this document
refers to the host sending a DNS request as the "initiator" and the
host sending a DNS response as the "responder".
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and
"OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in
<a href="https://www.rfc-editor.org/bcp/bcp14">BCP 14</a> [<a href="./rfc2119" title=""Key words for use in RFCs to Indicate Requirement Levels"">RFC2119</a>] [<a href="./rfc8174" title=""Ambiguity of Uppercase vs Lowercase in RFC 2119 Key Words"">RFC8174</a>] when, and only when, they appear in all
capitals, as shown here.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-2" href="#section-2">2</a>. Motivations for Use of ANY Queries</span>
ANY queries are legitimately used for debugging and checking the
state of a DNS server for a particular name.
ANY queries are sometimes used as an attempt to reduce the number of
queries needed to get information, e.g., to obtain MX, A, and AAAA
resource record sets (RRsets) for a mail domain in a single query.
However, there is no documented guidance available for this use case,
and some implementations have been observed not to function as their
<span class="grey">Abley, et al. Standards Track [Page 3]</span></pre>
<hr class='noprint'/><!--NewPage--><pre class='newpage'><span id="page-4" ></span>
<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc8482">RFC 8482</a> Minimal Responses for ANY Queries January 2019</span>
developers expected. If implementers assume that an ANY query will
ultimately be received by an authoritative server and will fetch all
existing RRsets, they should include a fallback mechanism to use when
that does not happen.
ANY queries are frequently used to exploit the amplification
potential of DNS servers and resolvers using spoofed source addresses
and UDP transport (see [<a href="./rfc5358" title=""Preventing Use of Recursive Nameservers in Reflector Attacks"">RFC5358</a>]). Having the ability to return
small responses to such queries makes DNS servers less attractive
amplifiers.
ANY queries are sometimes used to help mine authoritative-only DNS
servers for zone data, since they are expected to return all RRsets
for a particular query name. If DNS operators prefer to reduce the
potential for information leaks, they might choose not to send large
ANY responses.
Some authoritative-only DNS server implementations require additional
processing in order to send a conventional ANY response; avoiding
that processing expense might be desirable.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-3" href="#section-3">3</a>. General Approach</span>
This proposal provides a mechanism for an authoritative DNS server to
signal that conventional ANY queries are not supported for a
particular QNAME. It does so in a way that is both compatible with
and triggers desirable behavior by unmodified clients (e.g., DNS
resolvers).
Alternative proposals for dealing with ANY queries have been
discussed. One approach proposes using a new RCODE to signal that an
authoritative server did not answer ANY queries in the standard way.
This approach was found to have an undesirable effect on both
resolvers and authoritative-only servers; resolvers receiving an
unknown RCODE would resend the same query to all available
authoritative servers rather than suppress future ANY queries for the
same QNAME.
The proposal described in this document avoids that outcome by
returning a non-empty RRset in the ANY response, which provides
resolvers with something to cache and effectively suppresses repeat
queries to the same or different authoritative DNS servers.

<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-4" href="#section-4">4</a>. Behavior of DNS Responders</span>
Below are the three different modes of behavior by DNS responders
when processing queries with QNAMEs that exist, QCLASS=IN, and
QTYPE=ANY. Operators and implementers are free to choose whichever
mechanism best suits their environment.
1. A DNS responder can choose to select one or a larger subset of
the available RRsets at the QNAME.
2. A DNS responder can return a synthesized HINFO resource record.
See <a href="#section-6">Section 6</a> for discussion of the use of HINFO.
3. A resolver can try to give out the most likely records the
requester wants. This is not always possible, and the result
might well be a large response.
Except as described below in this section, the DNS responder MUST
follow the standard algorithms when constructing a response.
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-4.1" href="#section-4.1">4.1</a>. Answer with a Subset of Available RRsets</span>
A DNS responder that receives an ANY query MAY decline to provide a
conventional ANY response or MAY instead send a response with a
single RRset (or a larger subset of available RRsets) in the answer
section.
The RRsets returned in the answer section of the response MAY consist
of a single RRset owned by the name specified in the QNAME. Where
multiple RRsets exist, the responder SHOULD choose a small subset of
those available to reduce the amplification potential of the
response.
If the zone is signed, appropriate RRSIG records MUST be included in
the answer.
Note that this mechanism does not provide any signaling to indicate
to a client that an incomplete subset of the available RRsets has
been returned.
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-4.2" href="#section-4.2">4.2</a>. Answer with a Synthesized HINFO RRset</span>
If there is no CNAME present at the owner name matching the QNAME,
the resource record returned in the response MAY instead be
synthesized. In this case, a single HINFO resource record SHOULD be
returned. The CPU field of the HINFO RDATA SHOULD be set to
"<a href="./rfc8482">RFC8482</a>". The OS field of the HINFO RDATA SHOULD be set to the null
string to minimize the size of the response.
<span class="grey">Abley, et al. Standards Track [Page 5]</span></pre>
<hr class='noprint'/><!--NewPage--><pre class='newpage'><span id="page-6" ></span>
<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc8482">RFC 8482</a> Minimal Responses for ANY Queries January 2019</span>
The TTL encoded for the synthesized HINFO resource record SHOULD be
chosen by the operator of the DNS responder to be large enough to
suppress frequent subsequent ANY queries from the same initiator with
the same QNAME, understanding that a TTL that is too long might make
policy changes relating to ANY queries difficult to change in the
future. The specific value used SHOULD be configurable by the
operator of the nameserver according to local policy, based on the
familiar considerations involved in choosing a TTL value for any
resource record in any zone.
If the DNS query includes DO=1 and the QNAME corresponds to a zone
that is known by the responder to be signed, a valid RRSIG for the
RRsets in the answer (or authority if answer is empty) section MUST
be returned. In the case of DO=0, the RRSIG SHOULD be omitted.
A system that receives an HINFO response SHOULD NOT infer that the
response was generated according to this specification and apply any
special processing of the response because, in general, it is not
possible to tell with certainty whether the HINFO RRset received was
synthesized. In particular, systems SHOULD NOT rely upon the HINFO
RDATA described in this section to distinguish between synthesized
and non-synthesized HINFO RRsets.
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-4.3" href="#section-4.3">4.3</a>. Answer with Best Guess as to Intention</span>
In some cases, it is possible to guess what the initiator wants in
the answer (but not always). Some implementations have implemented
the spirit of this document by returning all RRsets of RRTYPE CNAME,
MX, A, and AAAA that are present at the owner name while suppressing
others. This heuristic seems to work well in practice; it satisfies
the needs of some applications whilst suppressing other RRsets such
as TXT and DNSKEY that can often contribute to large responses.
Whilst some applications may be satisfied by this behavior, the
resulting responses in the general case are larger than in the
approaches described in Sections <a href="#section-4.1">4.1</a> and <a href="#section-4.2">4.2</a>.
As before, if the zone is signed and the DO bit is set on the
corresponding query, an RRSIG RRset MUST be included in the response.
<span class="h3"><a class="selflink" id="section-4.4" href="#section-4.4">4.4</a>. Transport Considerations</span>
A DNS responder MAY behave differently when processing ANY queries
received over different transports, e.g., by providing a conventional
ANY response over TCP whilst using one of the other mechanisms
specified in this document in the case where a query was received
using UDP.

<hr class='noprint'/><!--NewPage--><pre class='newpage'><span id="page-7" ></span>
<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc8482">RFC 8482</a> Minimal Responses for ANY Queries January 2019</span>
Implementers MAY provide configuration options to allow operators to
specify different behavior over different transports.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-5" href="#section-5">5</a>. Behavior of DNS Initiators</span>
A DNS initiator that sends a query with QTYPE=ANY and receives a
response containing an HINFO resource record or a single RRset, as
described in <a href="#section-4">Section 4</a>, MAY cache the response in the normal way.
Such cached resource records SHOULD be retained in the cache
following normal caching semantics, as with any other response
received from a DNS responder.
A DNS initiator MAY suppress queries with QTYPE=ANY in the event that
the local cache contains a matching HINFO resource record with the
CPU field of the HINFO RDATA, as described in <a href="#section-4">Section 4</a>. A DNS
initiator MAY instead respond to such queries with the contents of
the local cache in the usual way.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-6" href="#section-6">6</a>. HINFO Considerations</span>
It is possible that the synthesized HINFO RRset in an ANY response,
once cached by the initiator, might suppress subsequent queries from
the same initiator with QTYPE=HINFO. Thus, the use of HINFO in this
proposal would effectively mask the HINFO RRset present in the zone.
Operators of authoritative servers who serve zones that rely upon
conventional use of the HINFO RRTYPE SHOULD sensibly choose the
"single RRset" method described in this document or select another
type.
The HINFO RRTYPE is believed to be rarely used in the DNS at the time
of writing, based on observations made in passive DNS and at
recursive and authoritative DNS servers.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-7" href="#section-7">7</a>. Updates to RFCs 1034 and 1035</span>
This document extends the specification for processing ANY queries
described in <a href="./rfc1034#section-4.3.2">Section 4.3.2 of [RFC1034]</a>.
It is important to note that returning a subset of available RRsets
when processing an ANY query is legitimate and consistent with
[<a href="./rfc1035" title=""Domain names - implementation and specification"">RFC1035</a>]; it can be argued that ANY does not always mean ALL, as
used in <a href="./rfc1035#section-3.2.3">Section 3.2.3 of [RFC1035]</a>. The main difference here is that
the TC bit SHOULD NOT be set in the response, thus indicating that
this is not a complete answer.

<span class="grey"><a href="./rfc8482">RFC 8482</a> Minimal Responses for ANY Queries January 2019</span>
This document describes optional behavior for both DNS initiators and
responders; implementation of the guidance provided by this document
is OPTIONAL.
RRSIG queries (i.e., queries with QTYPE=RRSIG) are similar to ANY
queries in the sense that they have the potential to generate large
responses as well as extra work for the responders that process them,
e.g., in the case where signatures are generated on the fly. RRSIG
RRsets are not usually obtained using such explicit queries but are
rather included in the responses for other RRsets that the RRSIGs
cover. This document does not specify appropriate behavior for RRSIG
queries; however, future such advice might well benefit from
consistency with and experience with the approaches for ANY queries
described here.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-8" href="#section-8">8</a>. Implementation Experience</span>
In October 2015, the Cloudflare authoritative nameserver
implementation implemented the HINFO response. A few minor problems
were reported and have since been resolved.
An implementation of the subset-mode response to ANY queries was
implemented in NSD 4.1 in 2016.
An implementation of a single RRset response to an ANY query was made
for BIND9 by Tony Finch, and that functionality was subsequently made
available in production releases starting in BIND 9.11.
<span class="h2"><a class="selflink" id="section-9" href="#section-9">9</a>. Security Considerations</span>
Queries with QTYPE=ANY are frequently observed as part of reflection
attacks, since a relatively small query can be used to elicit a large
response. This is a desirable characteristic if the goal is to
maximize the amplification potential of a DNS server as part of a
volumetric attack. The ability of a DNS operator to suppress such
responses on a particular server makes that server a less useful
amplifier.
The optional behavior described in this document to reduce the size
of responses to queries with QTYPE=ANY is compatible with the use of
DNSSEC by both initiator and responder.
