If named is configured to perform DNSSEC validation and also forwards
all queries ("forward only;") to validating resolvers, negative trust
anchors do not work properly because the CD bit is not set in queries
sent to the forwarders. As a result, instead of retrieving bogus DNSSEC
material and making validation decisions based on its configuration,
named is only receiving SERVFAIL responses to queries for bogus data.
Fix by ensuring the CD bit is always set in queries sent to forwarders
if the query name is covered by an NTA.
More specifically: ignore configured trusted and managed keys that
match a disabled algorithm. The behavioral change is that
associated responses no longer SERVFAIL, but return insecure.

4056. [bug] Expanded automatic testing of trust anchor
management and fixed several small bugs including
a memory leak and a possible loss of key state
information. [RT #38458]
4055. [func] "rndc managed-keys" can be used to check status
of trust anchors or to force keys to be refreshed,
Also, the managed keys data file has easier-to-read
comments. [RT #38458]
3882. [func] By default, negative trust anchors will be tested
periodically to see whether data below them can be
validated, and if so, they will be allowed to
expire early. The "rndc nta -force" option
overrides this behvaior. The default NTA lifetime
and the recheck frequency can be configured by the
"nta-lifetime" and "nta-recheck" options. [RT #36146]
3867. [func] "rndc nta" can now be used to set a temporary
negative trust anchor, which disables DNSSEC
validation below a specified name for a specified
period of time (not exceeding 24 hours). This
can be used when validation for a domain is known
to be failing due to a configuration error on
the part of the domain owner rather than a
spoofing attack. [RT #29358]
