dnssecjava was merged into dnsjava and is a built-in resolver from v3.5.0 on.
A DNSSEC validating stub resolver for Java.
Maybe. There's been no audit of the code so far, so there are absolutely no guarantees. The rest depends currently on your use case: the proof that a positive response is correct should be safe to use. Most of the NXDOMAIN/NODATA responses are safe too, but there are some corner cases that have no tests yet.
Unit tests are currently covering over 95% of the code, including 133 from Unbound. Also keep in mind that while most of the code paths are covered by unit tests, this does not mean it is performing according to the RFCs or that something that should be checked for is really done.
See the To-Do list for more details.
This project is based on the work of the Unbound Java prototype from 2005/2006. The Unbound prototype was stripped from all unnecessary parts, heavily modified, complemented with more than 300 unit test and found bugs were fixed.

- 1.1: Change logging to slf4j
- 1.0: Initial release
The project is intended to be used as a Resolver for
DNSJAVA. Validated, secure responses contain
the DNS AD-flag, while responses that failed validation return the
SERVFAIL-RCode. Insecure responses return the actual return code
without the AD-flag set.
The reason why the validation failed or is insecure is provided as
a localized string in the additional section under the record ./65280/TXT
(a TXT record for the owner name of the root zone in the private query class
ValidatingResolver.VALIDATION_REASON_QCLASS).
import java.io.*;
import org.jitsi.dnssec.validator.ValidatingResolver;
import org.xbill.DNS.*;
public class ResolveExample {
static String ROOT = ". IN DS 20326 8 2 E06D44B80B8F1D39A95C0B0D7C65D08458E880409BBC683457104237C7F8EC8D";
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
// Send two sample queries using a standard DNSJAVA resolver
SimpleResolver sr = new SimpleResolver("4.2.2.1");
System.out.println("Standard resolver:");
sendAndPrint(sr, "www.dnssec-failed.org.");
sendAndPrint(sr, "www.isc.org.");
// Send the same queries using the validating resolver with the
// trust anchor of the root zone
// http://data.iana.org/root-anchors/root-anchors.xml
ValidatingResolver vr = new ValidatingResolver(sr);
vr.loadTrustAnchors(new ByteArrayInputStream(ROOT.getBytes("ASCII")));
System.out.println("\n\nValidating resolver:");
sendAndPrint(vr, "www.dnssec-failed.org.");
sendAndPrint(vr, "www.isc.org.");
}
private static void sendAndPrint(Resolver vr, String name) throws IOException {
System.out.println("\n---" + name);
Record qr = Record.newRecord(Name.fromConstantString(name), Type.A, DClass.IN);
Message response = vr.send(Message.newQuery(qr));
System.out.println("AD-Flag: " + response.getHeader().getFlag(Flags.AD));
System.out.println("RCode: " + Rcode.string(response.getRcode()));
for (RRset set : response.getSectionRRsets(Section.ADDITIONAL)) {
if (set.getName().equals(Name.root) && set.getType() == Type.TXT
&& set.getDClass() == ValidatingResolver.VALIDATION_REASON_QCLASS) {
System.out.println("Reason: " + ((TXTRecord) set.first()).getStrings().get(0));
}
}
}
}This should result in an output like
Standard resolver:
---www.dnssec-failed.org.
AD-Flag: false
RCode: NOERROR
---www.isc.org.
AD-Flag: false
RCode: NOERROR
Validating resolver:
---www.dnssec-failed.org.
AD-Flag: false
RCode: SERVFAIL
Reason: Could not establish a chain of trust to keys for [dnssec-failed.org.]. Reason: Did not match a DS to a DNSKEY.
---www.isc.org.
AD-Flag: true
RCode: NOERROR
Run mvn package
The validator supports a few configuration options. These can be set by calling
ValidatingResolver.init(properties);
Maximum time-to-live (TTL) of entries in the key cache in seconds. The default is 900s (15min).
Maximum number of entries in the key cache. The default is 1000.
Maximum iteration count for the NSEC3 hashing function depending on the key size N. The defaults from RFC5155 are:
- 1024 bit keys: 150 iterations (i.e. org.jitsi.dnssec.nsec3.iterations.1024=150)
- 2048 bit keys: 500 iterations
- 4096 bit keys: 2500 iterations
The file from which the trust anchor should be loaded. There is no default.
It must be formatted like a DNS zone master file. It can only contain DS or DNSKEY records.
Defines the preferred DS record digest algorithm if a zone has registered multiple DS records. The list is comma-separated, highest preference first.
If this property is not specified, the DS record with the highest [digest ID] (http://www.iana.org/assignments/ds-rr-types/ds-rr-types.xhtml) is chosen. To stay compliant with the RFCs, the mandatory digest IDs must be listed in this property.
The GOST digest requires BouncyCastle on the classpath.
Prevent algorithm downgrade when multiple algorithms are advertised in a zones
DS records. If false, allows any algorithm to validate the zone.
Default is true.
Boolean property to enable or disable a DS record digest algorithm. See RFC8624 for recommended values.
Boolean property to enable or disable a DS/DNSKEY algorithm. See RFC8624 for recommended values.
