[Bug 1624320] Re: systemd-resolved appends 127.0.0.53 to resolv.conf alongside existing entries

[Willem Toorop]

Unfortunately the DNS interface of current systemd-resolved strips DNSSEC, so applications that do DANE validation still have to target the upstreams directly.
I have filed a bug about this: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/4621

Title:
  systemd-resolved appends 127.0.0.53 to resolv.conf alongside existing
  entries

Status in systemd package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  systemd-resolved, or more precisely the hook script
  /lib/systemd/system/systemd-resolved.service.d/resolvconf.conf, causes
  resolvconf to add 127.0.0.53 to the set of nameservers in
  /etc/resolv.conf alongside the other nameservers.  That makes no sense
  because systemd-resolved sets up 127.0.0.53 as a proxy for those other
  nameservers.  The effect is similar to bug 1624071 but for
  applications doing their own DNS lookups.  It breaks any DNSSEC
  validation that systemd-resolved tries to do; applications will
  failover to the other nameservers, bypassing validation failures.  And
  it makes failing queries take twice as long.

  /etc/resolv.conf should have only 127.0.0.53 when systemd-resolved is
  active.
