<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">You are absolutely right, thanks for pointing this out. </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">DNSSEC is the best solution to these (and other) vulnerabilities and efforts should be focused on its (correct) adoption (see challenges here: <a href="http://eprint.iacr.org/2013/254" style="font-family:arial" target="_blank">http://eprint.iacr.org/2013/254</a>).</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:tahoma,sans-serif">However, since partial DNSSEC deployment may introduce new vulnerabilities, e.g., fragmentation-based attacks, the recommendations, that I wrote in an earlier email, can be adopted in the short term to prevent attacks till DNSSEC is fully deployed.</div>

M. Shulman, your summary does not list dnssec as a solution to any of these vulnerabilities, can you explain why not? Vixie<span><font color="#888888"><br>
