From David's minutes from the last IETF meeting, he states:

 

--> Action Item: The "dual stack" architecture that came up in the MPA

draft discussion has security implications, as the point of "stack
switch"

is an obvious place for an attacker to try something (e.g., louse up the
stack switch so that the connection has to be abandoned).  MPA draft
authors to look into this and post results of this investigation to
list.

 

Can the MPA authors comment on where we are at in terms of this action
item?
