Folks, I have posted a revision of draft-gont-6man-nd-extension-headers. It is available at: http://tools.ietf.org/id/draft-gont-6man-nd-extension-headers-02.txt
This version hopefully addresses the feedback I received over the last few months, and what seemed to be the consensus of the discussions that we had on the mailing list.

Filename: draft-gont-6man-nd-extension-headers Revision: 02 Title: Security Implications of the Use of IPv6 Extension Headers with IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Creation date: 2012-01-12 WG ID: Individual Submission Number of pages: 13 Abstract: This document analyzes the security implications of using IPv6 Extension Headers with Neighbor Discovery (ND) messages. It updates RFC 4861 such that use of the IPv6 Fragmentation Header is forbidden in all Neighbor Discovery messages, thus allowing for simple and effective counter-measures for Neighbor Discovery attacks. Finally, it discusses the security implications of using IPv6 fragmentation with SEcure Neighbor Discovery (SEND), and provides advice such that the aforementioned security implications are mitigated.
