peer address protection



Peer addresses (as defined in draft-ietf-ipsec-pki-profile-01.txt) are
not protected in IKE (not always in IKEv1, not at all in IKEv2 with
revised identities). This opens a security hole, not against IKE itself,
but using IKE to divert traffic (i.e., not a property we'd like for a
security protocol).
 The I-D editor has just announced the new version of my I-D about
the transient pseudo-NAT attack and its application to Mobile IPv4
(documented in the security section of the NAT traversal extension)
and to IKE... Its name is draft-dupont-transient-pseudonat-01.txt.
 I believe we should fix the issue (the security flaw) for the next
version of the IKEv2 document.

PS: I have to refresh the draft-dupont-ipsec-mipv6-01.txt too. I'm
looking for co-authors...
