Randall - Many thanks for the draft! I haven't read it carefully yet, but I have been worrying about this issue for HighSpeed TCP, where the receive window is likely to be quite large. The large receive window makes it even easier for an attacker to guess a valid sequence number for a reset. It also wasn't on my radar when I wrote the HighSpeed TCP document, now RFC 3649, so it is not mentioned in the Security Considerations section of that document, in terms of a security risk related to higher congestion windows.
