Announce:
Spaning Tree Algorithm and Protocols Familiy weakness & holes.
by Oleg Artemjev
and Vladislav Myasnyankin
The last text & matherials of the project & this announcement may be
found at http://olli.digger.org.ru/STP/. Currently only a magazine
article & draft "contents" of entire project are avaliable.
Below is a slightly changed & reformatted text dump of an announcement.

Announce:
Spaning Tree Algorithm and Protocols Familiy weakness & holes
by Oleg Artemjev
and Vladislav Myasnyankin
The Spaning Tree Algorithm and thus - all Spaning Tree Protocols
supported by lage variety of hardware vendors [lots of them provide
Spaning Tree Support on their switches (commutators) & routers]
contain many serious security vulnerabilities.Brief description of these
vulnerabilities was published in Russian magazine "LAN" (LAN, #1 2002,
more info about the magazine could be obtained from
http://www.osp.ru/lan/about/).
According publication conditions we can publish full matherials of our
project two months later after magazine issue. Since the paper is made
in Russian it will first arrive in Russian & only then, later, we'll
translate it into English (do you want to help us,huh?). This
announcement may be incompleet, if some differences are conflicting -
the Russian version is a right source. Also note - after we'll translate
the text to English it'll 1st arrive in a paper magazine. The reason is
simple - we prefer to take some feedback from our research work. If
you're a pubblisher (non US only! [ see LICENSE ]) - fill free to
contact us (then remove "NOSPAM" before sending - it's simple antispam
protection) - we're looking for an English-speaking paper magazine to
publish this information before it'll be avaliable for the Internet. We
already notified some vendors (Cisco, Avaya) about these
vulnerabilities, but an answer was alike: "Unless this gives money we
won't make investments". Well, since we're interested in high level of
security in switches & routes we use, we have to publish our
investigations. Because thus we 'll make some pressure on hardware
vendors to implement real security in their devices.
As a complain against trends to inhibit publications of security
vulnerabilitties in software (these tendencies are widely known to the
public as a DCMA law in U$ & judicial prosecution agains Sklyarov &
Elkomsoft,also there), the announced materials will be published under
following licence:
