While I believe it is very dangerous for the content published by probes, inline or out-of-band, to be used and trusted by the targets to contact researchers (and not end up at malicious content), on second thought I believe those who need to look into the probes into their networks causing accidental (or purposeful) damage are capable to safely look at the various methods of probe identification data. Furthermore, abuse at scale is unlikely. As such, if this content helps a target network to quickly contact a real researchers probe causing unintentional damage, then this document is useful and reduces unintentional harm on the internet. _______________________________________________ OPSEC mailing list OPSEC@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/opsec
