    First comment on the post:

    James Kettle: Hi, I’m the author of this research. It’s great to see interest and I can promise some quality research and a strong argument to kill HTTP/1.1 but the headline of this article goes a bit too far. The specific CDN vulnerabilities have been disclosed to the vendors and patched (hence the past tense in the abstract) – I wouldn’t drop zero day on a CDN! That said I do expect to see fresh critical CDN vulnerabilities in future – hopefully found by a white hat!
