Title: DNS Response clarification.
State: Active
Authors: Roy Arends
Group: Individual Submissions (none)
Date: 2004-10-14
This document clarifies DNS response message interpretation to avoid denial
of service attacks using DNS responses. In a recent DNS software assessment
it has come to light that some implementations respond to DNS response
messages. A loop occurs if the receiver of this response responds with a
response. It was never explicitly stated that response messages must not be
answered. This draft makes the statement explicit.
