Probably not, but I am not a bind expert and I don't maintain my own bind setup. >https://kb.isc.org/docs/en/bind-9-end-of-life-dates >9.11.37 received security fixes until mar 2022 >9.12 until jun 2019 (EOL) This was discussed back in 2019 when Paul did the 9.12 build. 9.11 was an ESV release and 9.12 was not. Paul agreed with my suggestion that we focus on 9.11 since it was going to get long term support. It appears that ISC changed its release policy a couple of years ago and it appears that 9.11 may have gotten some addtional years of support https://www.isc.org/blogs/2021-bind-release-model/ Paul mentioned some issues attemping to build 9.16 and other projects got priority. IMO, if someone feels the need for a newer bind ESV build, he/she should discuss this with Paul and be prepared to commit to assisting with the required testing to get it stabilized.
