Indeed, the vulnerability of attack 5 was noted and fixed in Miredo. However, I 
am not aware of any updates to the Teredo specification to mitigate it. This 
means that new implementations will always be vulnerable as in the case of 
Windows Server 2008 R2. This vulnerability was reported to Microsoft a few 
months ago. They have reproduced it on their end. A fix should be released in 
the next RC.
I did not realize that the attack can be successful also on Linux. Thanks for 
the correction.

Please let me know the results of your check on attack #4. If you wish, I can 
send you (off-list) the details of my setup for this attack. By the way, I 
encourage other people on the list to verify the attacks in different scenarios.

Gabi

Attack E has been known for at least 2 years, though I do not have a Microsoft 
implementation to verify: http://www.remlab.net/miredo/mtfl-sa-0603.shtml.en

Note that it *does* affect Linux-based in the sense that a non-privileged 
local user could screw up (an unlikely scenario on a Teredo server, anyway).


I'm now trying to verify attack D.
