I never said the document was broken, just that my paper would be a good
reference to make implementers aware of the potential dangers of MITM
attacks.

 

I will check the current draft for conflicts and, if necessary, propose
changes.

I agree w/Bernard.  It is never too late to fix a broken document.

 

Hope this helps.

[BA] The paper represents the most comprehensive analysis of tunneled
authentication security to date, and brings into question a number of
assumptions that have been made as to how MITM in the middle attacks can
be mitigated.     In looking over the tunnel requirements document,
there are only a few places where the issue of MITM attacks is
discussed, so if you believe there are changes that need to be made, you
should go ahead and propose them.
