> Hi,
> 
> as you know, the DNS flaw was leaked yesterday.   At the moment, ~70%
> of all resolvers on the Internet use static or trivially predictable
> source ports.   These resolvers/NAT devices need to be patched as soon
> as possible.   The CERT reference for this flaw can be found at:
> 
>  http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/800113
> 
> The flaw allows adversaries to inject almost arbitrary A or NS records
> on vulnerable resolvers, e.g. redirect traffic/proxy traffic of
> legitimate domains.
> 
> You can find a list of vulnerable resolvers and corresponding AS numbers at:
> 
>  https://asn.cymru.com/nsp-sec/upload/1216767459.whois.txt
> 
> These IP addresses are from recursive resolvers that showed very low
> standard-deviation (<200) in their source ports according to
> measurements conducted by David Dagon and myself over the last 7 days.
>  I released a small Python tool that you can use to test your own
> resolver.   You can download it from:
> 
>   http://www.monkey.org/~provos/dnspredict.py
> 
> Instructions on how to use the tool can be found here:

> Please, let me know if you have any questions.

> Thank you,
