DNSSEC validation fails when incorrect response to DNSKEY query is sent on Windows Server 2012 R2-based DNS server

View products that this article applies to.

This article describes an issue in which the Domain Name System Security Extensions (DNSSEC) validation fails on a Windows Server 2012 R2-based DNS server. Before you install this update, see the Prerequisites section.

Cause

This issue occurs if the DNSKEY query is targeted for a name that has DNAME configured. In this situation, the Windows Server 2012 R2-based DNS server responds back with the DNSKEY rather than the correct target name.
