For you interest, CVE was created and it has some interesting
links inside (SANS one explains some general trends):
  http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=3DCVE-2008-5161

It seems that some vendors are moving to the CTR encryption mode as the
default one.  Does anyone has something to say about this?  As I
understand, the advisory from CPNI is public, so there is no point to
refraining from discuissing this in the open lists.  OpenSSH people, I
understand that this is not just "two day business", but can you at
least drop a mail that you're investigating this?

Thanks a lot.
