Shutup paul. Its been far to many years listening to you holier than thou windbag rhetoric. I give dan props on this; take nothing away. Buts let's be honest here and put our egos aside as to what's really in play and what this really means. All due respect, let's not give credit where credit isn't' due. -K ----- Original Message ----- From: Paul Vixie [vixie () isc org] Sent: 07/18/2008 03:07 PM GMT To: dailydave () lists immunityinc com Subject: Re: [Dailydave] Speculation
one question that I forgot: Was it OK to speculate about the DNS problem, or is that considered irresponsible, too ?Only if you believe in a higher power that can hold you responsible for speculating about potentially breaking the Internet with an already patched vulnerability.
your primary responsibility is to your self and your own values. if you think dan err'd in giving the world a month or so, from july 7 to august 6, to apply patches including udp port randomization; if you think less time would have been better; if you think any part of the DNS infrastructure which can't be patched that quickly needs to be knocked on its ass to teach its operators a lesson... then it's not irresponsible to engage in public speculation which could yield an earlier-than-dan's disclosure. your call. it's up to each of us to decide what we want to be responsible to and for. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean. _______________________________________________ Dailydave mailing list Dailydave () lists immunitysec com http://lists.immunitysec.com/mailman/listinfo/dailydave _______________________________________________ Dailydave mailing list Dailydave () lists immunitysec com http://lists.immunitysec.com/mailman/listinfo/dailydave
