.
.SH "NAME"
\fIrewrite\fR \- performs internal message rewriting\.
.
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
Rewrites are invisible to the client\. There are simple rewrites (fast) and complex rewrites (slower), but they\'re powerful enough to accommodate most dynamic back\-end applications\.
.
.SH "SYNTAX"
A simplified/easy to digest syntax for \fIrewrite\fR is\.\.\. ~~~ rewrite [continue|stop] FIELD [FROM TO|FROM TTL] ~~~
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBFIELD\fR indicates what part of the request/response is being re\-written\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBtype\fR \- the type field of the request will be rewritten\. FROM/TO must be a DNS record type (\fBA\fR, \fBMX\fR, etc); e\.g\., to rewrite ANY queries to HINFO, use \fBrewrite type ANY HINFO\fR\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBclass\fR \- the class of the message will be rewritten\. FROM/TO must be a DNS class type (\fBIN\fR, \fBCH\fR, or \fBHS\fR) e\.g\., to rewrite CH queries to IN use \fBrewrite class CH IN\fR\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBname\fR \- the query name in the \fIrequest\fR is rewritten; by default this is a full match of the name, e\.g\., \fBrewrite name example\.net example\.org\fR\. Other match types are supported, see the \fBName Field Rewrites\fR section below\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBanswer name\fR \- the query name in the \fIresponse\fR is rewritten\. This option has special restrictions and requirements, in particular it must always combined with a \fBname\fR rewrite\. See below in the \fBResponse Rewrites\fR section\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBedns0\fR \- an EDNS0 option can be appended to the request as described below in the \fBEDNS0 Options\fR section\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBttl\fR \- the TTL value in the \fIresponse\fR is rewritten\.
.
.IP "" 0
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBFROM\fR is the name (exact, suffix, prefix, substring, or regex) or type to match
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBTO\fR is the destination name or type to rewrite to
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBTTL\fR is the number of seconds to set the TTL value to
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
If you specify multiple rules and an incoming query matches on multiple rules, the rewrite will behave as following * \fBcontinue\fR will continue apply the next rule in the rule list\. * \fBstop\fR will consider the current rule is the last rule and will not continue\. Default behaviour for not specifying this rule processing mode is \fBstop\fR
.
.SS "NAME FIELD REWRITES"
The \fBrewrite\fR plugin offers the ability to match on the name in the question section of a DNS request\. The match could be exact, substring, or based on a prefix, suffix, or regular expression\. If the newly used name is not a legal domain name the plugin returns an error to the client\.
.
.P
The syntax for the name re\-writing is as follows:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
rewrite [continue|stop] name [exact|prefix|suffix|substring|regex] STRING STRING
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
The match type, i\.e\. \fBexact\fR, \fBsubstring\fR, etc\., triggers re\-write:
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBexact\fR (default): on exact match of the name in the question section of a request
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBsubstring\fR: on a partial match of the name in the question section of a request
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBprefix\fR: when the name begins with the matching string
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBsuffix\fR: when the name ends with the matching string
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBregex\fR: when the name in the question section of a request matches a regular expression
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
If the match type is omitted, the \fBexact\fR match type is being assumed\.
.
.P
The following instruction allows re\-writing the name in the query that contains \fBservice\.us\-west\-1\.example\.org\fR substring\.
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
rewrite name substring service\.us\-west\-1\.example\.org service\.us\-west\-1\.consul
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
Thus:
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
Incoming Request Name: \fBftp\.service\.us\-west\-1\.example\.org\fR
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
Re\-written Request Name: \fBftp\.service\.us\-west\-1\.consul\fR
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
The following instruction uses regular expressions\. The name in a request matching \fB(\.*)\-(us\-west\-1)\e\.example\e\.org\fR regular expression is being replaces with \fB{1}\.service\.{2}\.consul\fR, where \fB{1}\fR and \fB{2}\fR are regular expression match groups\.
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
rewrite name regex (\.*)\-(us\-west\-1)\e\.example\e\.org {1}\.service\.{2}\.consul
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
Thus:
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
Incoming Request Name: \fBftp\-us\-west\-1\.example\.org\fR
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
Re\-written Request Name: \fBftp\.service\.us\-west\-1\.consul\fR
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
The following example rewrites the \fBschmoogle\.com\fR suffix to \fBgoogle\.com\fR\.
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
rewrite name suffix \.schmoogle\.com\. \.google\.com\.
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.SS "RESPONSE REWRITES"
When re\-writing incoming DNS requests\' names, CoreDNS re\-writes the \fBQUESTION SECTION\fR section of the requests\. It may be necessary to re\-write the \fBANSWER SECTION\fR of the requests, because some DNS resolvers would treat the mismatch between \fBQUESTION SECTION\fR and \fBANSWER SECTION\fR as a man\-in\-the\-middle attack (MITM)\.
.
.P
For example, a user tries to resolve \fBftp\-us\-west\-1\.coredns\.rocks\fR\. The CoreDNS configuration file has the following rule:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
rewrite name regex (\.*)\-(us\-west\-1)\e\.coredns\e\.rocks {1}\.service\.{2}\.consul
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
CoreDNS instance re\-wrote the request to \fBftp\-us\-west\-1\.coredns\.rocks\fR with \fBftp\.service\.us\-west\-1\.consul\fR and ultimately resolved it to 3 records\. The resolved records, see \fBANSWER SECTION\fR, were not from \fBcoredns\.rocks\fR, but rather from \fBservice\.us\-west\-1\.consul\fR\.
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
$ dig @10\.1\.1\.1 ftp\-us\-west\-1\.coredns\.rocks
; <<>> DiG 9\.8\.3\-P1 <<>> @10\.1\.1\.1 ftp\-us\-west\-1\.coredns\.rocks
; (1 server found)
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:

;; ANSWER SECTION:

.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
The above is the mismatch\.
.
.P
The following configuration snippet allows for the re\-writing of the \fBANSWER SECTION\fR, provided that the \fBQUESTION SECTION\fR was re\-written:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
rewrite stop {
name regex (\.*)\-(us\-west\-1)\e\.coredns\e\.rocks {1}\.service\.{2}\.consul
answer name (\.*)\e\.service\e\.(us\-west\-1)\e\.consul {1}\-{2}\.coredns\.rocks
}
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
Now, the \fBANSWER SECTION\fR matches the \fBQUESTION SECTION\fR:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
$ dig @10\.1\.1\.1 ftp\-us\-west\-1\.coredns\.rocks
; <<>> DiG 9\.8\.3\-P1 <<>> @10\.1\.1\.1 ftp\-us\-west\-1\.coredns\.rocks
; (1 server found)
;; global options: +cmd
;; Got answer:
;; \->>HEADER<<\- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 8619
;; flags: qr aa rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 3, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0
;; QUESTION SECTION:
;ftp\-us\-west\-1\.coredns\.rocks\. IN A
;; ANSWER SECTION:
ftp\-us\-west\-1\.coredns\.rocks\. 0 IN A 10\.10\.10\.10
ftp\-us\-west\-1\.coredns\.rocks\. 0 IN A 10\.20\.20\.20
ftp\-us\-west\-1\.coredns\.rocks\. 0 IN A 10\.30\.30\.30
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
The syntax for the rewrite of DNS request and response is as follows:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
rewrite [continue|stop] {
name regex STRING STRING
answer name STRING STRING
}
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
Note that the above syntax is strict\. For response rewrites only \fBname\fR rules are allowed to match the question section, and only by match type \fBregex\fR\. The answer rewrite must be after the name, as ordered in the syntax example\. There must only be two lines (a \fBname\fR follwed by an \fBanswer\fR) in the brackets, additional rules are not supported\.
.
.P
An alternate syntax for the rewrite of DNS request and response is as follows:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
rewrite [continue|stop] name regex STRING STRING answer name STRING STRING
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.SS "TTL FIELD REWRITES"
At times, the need for rewriting TTL value could arise\. For example, a DNS server may prevent caching by setting TTL as low as zero (\fB0\fR)\. An administrator may want to increase the TTL to prevent caching, e\.g\. to 15 seconds\.
.
.P
In the below example, the TTL in the answers for \fBcoredns\.rocks\fR domain are being set to \fB15\fR:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
rewrite continue {
ttl regex (\.*)\e\.coredns\e\.rocks 15
}
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
By the same token, an administrator may use this feature to force caching by setting TTL value really low\.
.
.P
The syntax for the TTL rewrite rule is as follows\. The meaning of \fBexact|prefix|suffix|substring|regex\fR is the same as with the name rewrite rules\.
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
rewrite [continue|stop] ttl [exact|prefix|suffix|substring|regex] STRING SECONDS
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.SH "EDNS0 OPTIONS"
Using FIELD edns0, you can set, append, or replace specific EDNS0 options on the request\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBreplace\fR will modify any "matching" option with the specified option\. The criteria for "matching" varies based on EDNS0 type\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBappend\fR will add the option only if no matching option exists
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
\fBset\fR will modify a matching option or add one if none is found
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
Currently supported are \fBEDNS0_LOCAL\fR, \fBEDNS0_NSID\fR and \fBEDNS0_SUBNET\fR\.
.
.SS "EDNS0_LOCAL"
This has two fields, code and data\. A match is defined as having the same code\. Data may be a string or a variable\.
.
.TP
A string data can be treated as hex if it starts with \fB0x\fR\. Example:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
\&\. {
rewrite edns0 local set 0xffee 0x61626364
whoami
}
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
rewrites the first local option with code 0xffee, setting the data to "abcd"\. Equivalent:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
\&\. {
rewrite edns0 local set 0xffee abcd
}
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
A variable data is specified with a pair of curly brackets \fB{}\fR\. Following are the supported variables: {qname}, {qtype}, {client_ip}, {client_port}, {protocol}, {server_ip}, {server_port}\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
If the metadata plugin is enabled, then labels are supported as variables if they are presented within curly brackets\. the variable data will be filled with the value associated with that label\. If that label is not provided, the variable will be silently substitute by an empty string\.
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
Examples:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
rewrite edns0 local set 0xffee {client_ip}
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.P
The following example uses metadata and an imaginary "some\-plugin" that would provide "some\-label" as metadata information\.
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
metadata
some\-plugin
rewrite edns0 local set 0xffee {some\-plugin/some\-label}
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.SS "EDNS0_NSID"
This has no fields; it will add an NSID option with an empty string for the NSID\. If the option already exists and the action is \fBreplace\fR or \fBset\fR, then the NSID in the option will be set to the empty string\.
.
.SS "EDNS0_SUBNET"
This has two fields, IPv4 bitmask length and IPv6 bitmask length\. The bitmask length is used to extract the client subnet from the source IP address in the query\.
.
.P
Example:
.
.IP "" 4
.
.nf
rewrite edns0 subnet set 24 56
.
.fi
.
.IP "" 0
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
If the query has source IP as IPv4, the first 24 bits in the IP will be the network subnet\.
.
.IP "\(bu" 4
If the query has source IP as IPv6, the first 56 bits in the IP will be the network subnet\.
.
.IP "" 0
.
.SH "FULL SYNTAX"
The full plugin usage syntax is harder to digest\.\.\. ~~~ rewrite [continue|stop] {type|class|edns0|name [exact|prefix|suffix|substring|regex [FROM TO answer name]]} FROM TO ~~~
.
.P
The syntax above doesn\'t cover the multi line block option for specifying a name request+response rewrite rule described in the \fBResponse Rewrite\fR section\.
