Subject: Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer susceptible
 to DNS Re-binding attacks

Hi, I came across this post on Slashdot about DNS Re-binding attacks.
<http://it.slashdot.org/it/07/08/06/2036212.shtml>

I visited the information URL at <http://crypto.stanford.edu/dns/> using 
both Mozilla Firefox (2.0.0.6) and Internet Explorer (7.0.5730.11) and 
the page reported as " We have detected that your browser is vulnerable 
to efficient DNS rebinding attacks". Is this of any concern to browser 
application developers or users?

best regards,
