Hello, I am not sure I understand exactly what you are proposing. How can a LISP router decide that a RLOC is done by simply receiving an ICMP packet from an attacker (except with LSB that is discussed in Sec 4.3.2.1. )? All the other techniques are triggered by the LISP router and are protected by the nonce.
Could you describe precisely the attack you have in mind? The only think I can see is relying on the birthday paradox but that is a completely different story.
