I few weeks ago I did some large-data crunching and discovered that a
significant source of the KSK-2010-only RFC8145 signals were arriving at
the root servers from a one VPN providers software. I immediately
reached out to the vendor, who promised to release fixes soon and I
expect over the next couple of months we'll see visible dents in the
RFC8145 data that ICANN has been gathering. My estimation of how much
of the old-key data belonged to this particular problem looks to be
roughly (it's not exact science) 32% on the low end. Potentially
higher, as the upper end isn't as easy to calculate.
Details of my analysis will come later in a longer write-up and will
likely be presented at future OARC and other meetings if I'm accepted as
a presenter. In the mean time, cross your fingers for a high impact in
the near future :-)
