Cisco flaw presentation spreads across the Web

FBI Investigation...

New copies of Michael Lynn's presentation on the Cisco router operating
system flaw are springing up faster than the lawyers can take them down

Cisco's lawyers are sending out cease-and-desist notices to Web sites
that have published a controversial presentation by ex-Internet Security
Systems (ISS) employee Michael Lynn that exposes the potential dangers
of a flaw in the network giant's router operating system.The
presentation, which was due to be given by Lynn at the Defcon conference
in Las Vegas last week, was cancelled after legal threats from Cisco and
ISS. The parties resolved the matter on Thursday last week.
