> Abstract: Identifiers such as hostnames, URIs, and email addresses
> are often used in security contexts to identify security principals
> and resources.  In such contexts, an identifier supplied via some 
> protocol is often compared against some policy to make security 
> decisions such as whether the principal may access the resource,
> what level of authentication or encryption is required, etc.  If
> the parties involved in a security decision use different
> algorithms to compare identifiers, then failure scenarios ranging
> from denial of service to elevation of privilege can result.
