-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256

Hello, folks,

I have just seen that there has been a thread about this document in this list, so here's a related "announcement":

Last week the UK CPNI (United Kingdom's Centre for the Protection of National Infrastructure) released the document "Security Assessment of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)". The document analyzes the relevant specifications from a security point of view, and also analyzes the implications of some implementation strategies taken by popular TCP implementations. This document is available at: http://www.cpni.gov.uk/Docs/tn-03-09-security-assessment-TCP.pdf

As part of the same project, we have produced an IETF I-D version of the UK CPNI document, in the hope that the IETF works on this stuff and hopefully publishes some version of the aforementioned document. The resulting IETF I-D is entitled "Security Assessment of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP)" (draft-gont-tcp-security-00.txt) and is available at: http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-gont-tcp-security-00.txt

Any comments will be more than welcome.

Thanks!
