More links on the TCP Reset Vulnerability
It took me several minutes to find the link to the actual presentation. It’s down near the bottom of the links listed as Generic Informational URL. Or you could just follow this link.
If you hadn’t already guessed, I’m following this issue pretty closely. The reaction to this has been very interesting to watch, and I think the security community can learn from how this was handled. There were some mistakes made, for example the vulnerability information was leaked 3 days early (Paul Watson on The ScreenSavers). But, overall, the security community has handled the vulnerability with calm alacrity. Some reporters tried to blow the issue out of proportion, but the bells tolling the death of the Internet were kept to a minimum.
And,for once, Microsoft was not to blame.
