DNS vulnerability fixup
-
There has been talk of a major DNS vulnerability that has been kept under wraps (until recently) while a solution was found. Now it seems the details of the vulnerability have been leaked and, presumably, it will be but a few days before the sobs (that ruin the internet for all of us) come up with new ways of... well, fill in the blank. There were supposed to be a fixup few weeks back but got delayed, then it was last week... now I've lost track and, worse, I can't see anything to that effect in the WU site. So, does anyone have any idea about this fixup or what's going on with this? Thank you people.
