New issue 7722 by [email protected]: Corrupt SDCH dictionary download should cause exponential backoff http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=7722 What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Visit a site supporting SDCH, and get a suggestion for a dicitionary download. 2. Have a MITM (censorship filter?? AV software?) corrupt the downloaded dictionary. 3. Each additional visit will induce yet another attempt to fetch the dictionary In a *similar* way to what we do with blacklisting support for SDCH, we should blacklist dictionary fetching for progressively longer periods of time (or attempts) with each corruption. This blacklisting might be global (applicable to all domains, assuming the filter is global), or might be domain specific (assuming the dictionary server on a site is providing corrupt dictionaries, that are not worth fetching. Perhaps the existing domain-based blacklisting should be extended to cover dictionary downloads. -- You received this message because you are listed in the owner or CC fields of this issue, or because you starred this issue.
