Do More to Prevent DNS DDoS Attacks

In recent weeks, numerous high profile organizations and financial institutions have been targets of massive service disruption attacks. 
Several of these attacks are characteristically similar to attacks against top level domain name servers in 2006.
 ICANN’s Security and Stability Advisory Committee published an Advisory, SAC008 [PDF, 963 KB]: Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) Attacks, shortly after the 2006 incidents. 
Recommendations from that Advisory remain relevant today. 

 DDoS attacks commonly use IP addresses that are not allocated to the subscriber or IP addresses from reserved/private space to make it difficult to identify sources of attack traffic. This is called IP address spoofing. Access service providers or corporations should apply network ingress filtering (described in SAC004 and recommended by the Internet IAB in BCP038) to prevent spoofing. Squelching attack traffic close to its origins has the added benefit of relieving ISPs from forwarding malicious or criminal traffic. Everyone benefits when every operator filters spoofed source addresses, except would be attackers.

GCC Looks To Turn Off Java, Replace With Go Or ADA

GCC developers from multiple companies are beginning to reach agreement that it's time for Java to be turned off by default in GCC. The Java compiler support in GCC is in the form of GCJ, but it doesn't see much active development these days with more of the Java work happening in OpenJDK. Developers are looking to disable Java from the default GCC build process but to potentially replace it with the Go or ADA languages.  With the open-source Java toolchain development having shifted from GCJ to OpenJDK years ago, Jeff Law of Red Hat characters the current state of Java in GCC as "moved from active development into a deep maintenance mode." GCJ seldom sees new development work and its usage isn't great either, but as of right now it's still built by default when compiling GCC.  Jeff Law volleyed a mailing list thread on Friday entitled  Replace Java with Go in default languages . So far GCC developers from various companies seem to be in agreement on dropping ...
