My .02 cents.. There are ways around that, such as denying packets to terminate on routers interface from unknown addresses as there is no need for these protocols on cisco routers exept protocol 103 used for PIM. As multicast routing is not used on the commercial internet, it can safely be removed.

Why don't you open up the protocols from the addresses that you need. Isn't this a standard firewalling technique? Plus I believe that they said that there are new versions of IOS that are not vulnerable to this attack, which means that you can upgrade IOS and resolve the issute all together.
