RE: issue 8273: proposal for WS-Enumeration

Some editorial comments below [1]. Thanks.

“Likewise EnumerationEnd messages ought to be authenticated and verified to originate from the “data source owner” of the subscription enumeration (for example, the entity that sent the original EnumerateResponse message).”

“To defend against the misuse of snooped/guessed Enumeration Contexts, Data Sources are advised to authenticate clients sending Pull requests and verify that they are the “consumer owner” of the context used in the request.”

“When deployed within a DMZ, such a Data Source could be exploited to probe for other, non-visible machines by guessing target address values and using these values as the EndTo address in Enumerate requests.”
