    Most domains are not DNSSEC signed. If we assume that an attacker can
    insert bogus replies then for DNSSEC this is amounts to a DoS. For
    unsigned zones, this means total data corruption.

    What we see in practice is that these types of off-path attacks are
    extremely rare.


I agree.

    We can expect that a DoS on DNSSEC will be much more
    rare than attacks on unsigned zones.


I disagree.  "Man on the side" attacks on DNS, by injecting a forged reply that races the true reply, are common, and are not limited to unsigned domains.

Hi!

"Long time no see!"

Do you happen to have any papers or other data on that topic?

I have seen all sorts of claims on this over the years but no data so I'm very curious.

I hope to meet you again - perhaps at OARC 47 in Vancouver?
