Bug Description
Bind9 released version 9.18.1 recently, and we should have it in Jammy.
This new release is already availble in Debian unstable, and contains a sizeable list of bugfixes. It is the first point release after bind9 9.18.0, and the project has a track record of fixing important bugs in the .1 release.
You can see the release notes for 9.18.1 here: https:/

There are 3 items described as Feature Changes:
* The DLZ API has been updated: EDNS Client-Subnet (ECS) options sent by a client are now included in the client information sent to DLZ modules when processing queries. [GL #3082]
* DEBUG(1)-level messages were added when starting and ending the BIND 9 task-exclusive mode that stops normal DNS operation (e.g. for reconfiguration, interface scans, and other events that require exclusive access to a shared resource). [GL #3137]
* The limit on the number of simultaneously processed pipelined DNS queries received over TCP has been removed. Previously, it was capped at 23 queries processed at the same time. [GL #3141]
The last 2 changes seem trivial; the first one seems to aim at a specific scenario and I find it unlikely that it will affect most users.
