An anonymous reader writes “Reverse engineering expert Halver Flake has
[0]recently mused on Dan Kaminsky’s [1]DNS vulnerability. Apparently his
musings were close enough to the mark to cause one of the Matasano team,
who apparently [2]already knew of the attack, to [3]publish the details
on the Matasano blog in a post entitled ‘Reliable DNS Forgery in 2008.’
The blog post has since been pulled, but [4]evidence of it exists on
Google and elsewhere. It appears only a matter of time now before the
full details leak.” Reader Time out contributes a link to [5]coverage on
ZDNet as well.
