content-type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Content-Disposition: inline X-RT-Original-Encoding: utf-8 Content-Length: 546 Thank you for the report. This is a known bug; the restriction of cross-zone CNAMEs was being incorrectly applied to recursive queries as well as authoritative. (The bug has existed for a long time, actually, but was masked by another one that went away when we removed additional-from-auth.) Someone else reported the same issue last week, and it's already been fixed for the 9.12.1 maintenance release. If you wish you can pull an updated version of the v9_12 branch from our source repository (source.isc.org), or apply the attached patch.
