I forwarded your mail to -current the other day after I verified the problem, since thats where most of the developers hang out, and the answer is that it's a bug for which a patch is under consideration for committing (unless I misunderstood Don Lewis's message, it's a legitimate vulnerability in the networking code). Presumably a security advisory will be issued once the fix is available and tested. If you need to patch this immediately, I can forward you a copy of the latest proposed patch I've seen, which might however have other unforseen consequences (i.e. it's not "official").
