More Kaminsky

So there's another form of attack which is closer to the Matasano description but still different in significant ways.

I always find it interesting how code which has been around for a while and even been inspected quite thoroughly suddenly has lots of obvious bugs or holes once someone points out a single one. I wonder if it would be useful to just randomly claim there's a hole in some random piece of software just to help find the holes which actually exist.

In this case I required several clues before I twigged, so I doubt hints that are far from the mark will help.
