    Package        : dns-root-data     Version        : 2024071801~deb11u1     Debian Bug     : #1076995

    The dns-root-data package contains DNS root zone data as published by     IANA to be used as initial source by DNS software. This release adds     the DNSKEY record for the KSK-2024 trust anchor. This new key is     planned for use starting October 2026, and the previous one (KSK-2017)     should be revoked January 2027, leaving time to propagate the new     trust anchor, or roll to it sooner in case of emergency.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, this problem has been fixed in version     2024071801~deb11u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your dns-root-data packages.

    For the detailed security status of dns-root-data please refer to     its security tracker page at:
