  This paper analyze security issues of Bloom filter based multicast forwarding
mechanisms. Tree oriented approaches and destination oriented approaches are
studied. We analyze the possible distributed denail of service (DDoS) against
the Bloom filter based multicast with the destination oriented approach, which
has never been analyzed before. We reveal some attack patterns that have not
been studied in the literature. We also analyze the possible DDoS attacks
against Bloom filter based multicast in the DCN context.
